Modelling of human activity development in coastal sea areas

As the marine fringes of coastal zones, coastal seas are particularly affected by human activities interacting among themselves, sometimes in a conflicting way, and with their environment. In order to analyse these interactions, a modelling platform of Human Activities Dynamics (DAHU) is developed, including a module adapted to the description of marine human activities. The methodology is based on a multi-agent type modelling approach combined with GIS. The prototype is used to implement forecasting scenarios simulating the development of one or several activities throughout the year and the impact of various events (accidental sea pollution, infrastructure development…) on their dynamics. The aim of this process is to produce relevant information to assist operational space use management in coastal sea areas.
