As explained on the Configurations page, any MSP Challenge edition is configurable to fit your own requirements. The best way to do this is by editing the basic configuration file of a particular edition.
The Baltic Sea edition has a basic configuration with the following main parameters:
Era Timeline
Era | Start | End |
---|---|---|
Era 1 | 2018 | 2026 |
Era 2 | 2026 | 2034 |
Era 3 | 2034 | 2042 |
Era 4 | 2042 | 2050 |
Country Overview
- Nine countries with each two or three objectives:
- Blue (Germany)
- Pink (Denmark)
- Purple (Sweden)
- Green (Finland)
- Black (Russia)
- Yellow (Latvia)
- Red (Estonia)
- Navy (Lithuania)
- Orange (Poland)
Other settings
- Dataset as stipulated on the Data sources page. See the Baltic Sea edition table.
- Three background simulations:
- Ecopath-with-Ecosim ecosystem simulation, and predefined ecosystem pressures (noise, artificial substrate, surface disturbance, bottom disturbance, fishing efforts and protection from fishing activities) generated from different human activities.
- Shipping simulation, monthly ship traffic entering, leaving or within the Baltic Sea region.
- Energy simulation, existing offshore renewable energy areas, electricity cables and landing stations (landfall points) in the different countries. These simulate the current energy flow of the existing infrastructure.
- Restrictions and errors:
- Errors when planning different physically-obstructing human activities on the same area, e.g. a wind farm on a shipping lane, or vice versa.
- Warnings when planning human activities with defined ecosystem pressures in an MPA or Natura2000 site, or vice versa.
