Predictim MSP-DSS

Predictim MSP-DSS is an enterprise marine spatial planning platform engineered to design and manage Marine Protected Areas. Developed through multi-disciplinary research in conservation science and multi-objective optimisation, it simultaneously balances biodiversity representation, ecological connectivity, 30% habitat protection mandates, and economic stakeholder impact — producing zoning plans that resolve complex conflicts between conservation goals and maritime resource use across planning grids of up to 125,000 cells.

Capabilities

What this platform does

Each capability is a deployed module — not a feature on a roadmap. Engagements typically begin with a 4-week scoping exercise to confirm fit against your operational data and constraints.

Interactive GIS MPA zoning grid

A planning grid of up to 125,000 cells allows analysts to overlay coral reef distributions, seagrass meadows, fishing efforts, and shipping lanes — immediately viewing the ecological impact of zone selections.

Multi-objective conservation engine

Optimises four conflicting criteria simultaneously: biodiversity representation, ecological connectivity, 30% habitat protection targets, and economic cost for stakeholders.

Pareto trade-off explorer

A multi-objective trade-off plot displays the full conservation-revenue frontier. Stakeholders click on any point to instantly load and audit the corresponding Marine Protected Area map.

Stakeholder preference learning

Captures and processes priority trade-offs from NGOs, local fisheries, and governments to prune the zoning frontier and surface cooperative proposals.

Sanctuary contiguity controls

Applies spatial contiguity penalties to promote consolidated, rounder marine sanctuaries that are easier to monitor and police, avoiding fragmented zones.
