Before defining a density map, we should say that we have used a INSPIRE compliant 1km grid because we wanted:
As much detail as possible
We wanted to use a standard that can be use for other HELCOM maps and thus compare results
This grid is so detailed that we cannot even see the actual grid. But if we zoom…
…we can see that it REALLY is very detailed!
If we zoom more we can see an example of four cells to explain what a density map is:
Imagine these lines are ship trips. A density map is the sum of those trips for every cell in the grid. So for us thsi values show how intense in the shipping traffic in the Baltic at a given time.
