Dataset description

The pressure oil slicks and spills is combination of following datasets: Illegal oil discharges (2016-2021): Value of spills (VOLUME) under OR EQUAL 1km2 was directly given to grid cell. If the spill area > 1km2, a buffer with the area was added (circular buffer based on estimated radius) and the estimated volume of the spill was divided by the spill area to get the estimated amount of oil / km2. This value was given to the entire spill area. If oil spill volume was missing, mean of values was given. If area of spill was missing (103/560), mean of values was given. If the spill was < or = 1km2, the value of spill volume was given directly to 1km2 grid cell. If the spill area was > 1km2, the estimated volume of the spill was divided by the spill area to get the estimated amount of oil / km2. This value was given to the entire spill area. Layer was log transformed and normalized. Polluting ship accidents (2016-2020): Point, spill volume (m3) converted directly to 1 x 1 km grid A mean of reported volumes was given to accidents with missing oil volume. Spill volume in m3 was given directly to 1km2 grid cell. Layer was log transformed and normalized. Layers were separately normalised. After that, layers were summed and again normalised to produce the final pressure value between 0 and 1.
