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 North Sea edition has a basic configuration with the following main parameters:

  • Start date January 2018, end date January 2050
  • So each of the standard four eras covers eight years:
    • Era 1: Jan 2018 - Jan 2026
    • Era 2: Jan 2026 - Jan 2034
    • Era 3: Jan 2034 - Jan 2042
    • Era 4: Jan 2042 - Jan 2050
  • Eight countries with each two or three objectives:
    • Orange (the Netherlands):
      • ...
      • ...
      • ...
    • Yellow (Germany)
      • ...
      • ...
      • ...
    • Blue (Denmark)
      • ...
      • ...
      • ...
    • Purple (Norway)
      • ...
      • ..
    • Green (Scotland)
      • ...
      • ...
      • ...
    • Red (England)
      • ...
      • ...
      • ...
    • Pink (Belgium)
    • ... (France)
  • Dataset as stipulated on the Data sources North sea edition page.
  • Three background simulations:
    • Ecopath-with-Ecosim ecosystem simulation, and predefined ecosystem pressures (noise, artificial substrate, surface disturbance, bottom disturbance, fishing efforts) generated from different human activities.
    • Shipping simulation, and predefined shipping routes and monthly ship traffic within, going in, and going out of the North Sea region.
    • Energy simulation, and predefined offshore renewable energy areas, electricity cables and landing stations (landfall points) in the different countries.
  • Only few restrictions:
    • Errors when placing physical obstructions on the same place, e.g. wind farms on top of shipping lanes, or vice versa.
    • Warnings when placing human activities with defined ecosystem pressures in an MPA or Natura2000 site, or vice versa.
