GRID

GRID (GeoReference Interactions Database) was developed in the framework of the EU project COEXIST (www.coexistproject.eu ). It's a web-based flexible database connected with a number of tools to analyze interactions between coastal activities (conflicts and synergies), it allows to fix and describe conflicts and synergies in a database, to calculate conflict scores and then to represent them on matrices of interactions and maps. GRID has a dedicated GIS application to analyse spatial distribution of present and future activities (fisheries, aquaculture, other activities) and interactions (existing and potential synergies and conflicts). A particular section of the database was created for some of the Case Studies considered in the framework of COEXIST project and, at present, access to GRID is restricted to the Case Studies staff.
