Definition
Competition for maritime space – for renewable energy equipment, aquaculture and other uses – has highlighted the need to manage our waters more coherently. Maritime spatial planning (MSP) works across borders and sectors to ensure human activities at sea take place in an efficient, safe and sustainable way. That is why the European Parliament and the Council have adopted legislation to create a common framework for maritime spatial planning in Europe. For glossaries of maritime spatial planning, see for example: UNESCO MSP glossary or the European MSP Platform
MSP distinguishes between different areas: exclusion zone, priority area, and suitability areas.
