Description

The sediments layer protraits the type of sea floor you can find in the Baltic Sea area.

MSP Challenge

The sediments layer is a static layer, it can help in decision making to plan for wind-farms or other structures fixed to the sea-floor. It can also assist in identifying potentially important areas for protection.
