Zusammenfassung
The German coastal areas of the Baltic and North Seas are part of the most highly-frequented shipping routes worldwide. The high density of shipping traffic requires
effective prevention planning, especially to protect the environment from dangers
implicit with high density shipping traffic. The pollution of seas and coasts are
unavoidable.
Therefore the Ministeries for Environment of the Coastal States, in cooperation with
the Federal Ministery of Transport, Building, and Housing compiled a plan for the
entire German North and Baltic Seas, that assists the onshore response measures
implemented in case of a pollutant release.
The main function of the VorsorgePlan Schadstoffunfallbekämpfung (VPS) -
Contingency Plan for Marine Pollution Control – is derived from collection, storage,
and dissemination of such information that are necessary or useful for the prevention
of, as well as the response to, pollution incidents.
The following types of data are available:
Alphanumerical data of the database
Geodata in the GIS
Texts, charts and graphics in the incident response manual
Photo and video data of the whole German coast
