MSP Challenge 2050:

The MSP Challenge Game simulates shipping intensity between a starting position and a destination, these intensities are stored and represented in the form of a raster file.

The Shipping Intensity represent the sum of all ship types in the sea basin. All other intensities can be found in the individual raster files of that ship type.

Pressure on Ecology:

The ecological pressures are scaled on a level from 0 to 1, with 0 having none, and 1 having the maximal impact on that pressure. The value in the shipping intensity raster (low = 0, extreme = 1) is duplicated by the pressure scale.
