On 25 March 2021 a workshop dedicated to the BASEMAPS data portal were held during the 15th Baltic Sea Region Maritme Spatial Planning Data Expert Sub-group (BSR MSP Data ESG). A previous workshop on Basemaps was held on 16 September 2020. The participants highlighted the need to repeat the exercise, if possible before each Meeting of the BSR MSP Data ESG.

The aim of the workshop was to support the participants of the BSR MSP Data ESG to add relevant MSP input data services (WMS and WFS) that are available from national data providers in Basemaps. Discussion on output data were also welcome.

This workshop supported the participants for adding more available input data services in Basemaps and to identify the further development needs of the admin panel. This information is important to increase the user-friendliness of Basemaps and to make sure that it contains updated content.

A total of 14 participants from 6 HELCOM Contracting Parties as well as from HELCOM and VASAB Secretariats attended the workshop.

Event was organised within the Capacity4MSP project platform. More information about the project HERE.
