Provenance information | 50m raster grid file used in the Mapping and Assessment of Ecosystems Service Project. Created by Environment Systems Ltd. (ESL). The dataset was derived through additive analysis of relevant spatial data including: habitat type (Habitat Asset Register, refer to resource 1), conservation designations, collated maritime datasets listed below: 1. Habitat Asset Register 2. Conservation Designations 3. Inshore Fisheries 4. Dredge Fishing Activity 5. Line Fishing Activity 6. Net Fishing Activity 7. Bottom Trawl Fishing Activity 8. Mid-water Trawl Fishing Activity 9. Pot Fishing Activity 10. Fishing Intensity by vessels >15m in length – Mobile Seine 11. Fishing Intensity by vessels >15m in length – All Gears 12. Fishing Intensity by vessels >15m in length – Mobile Bottom 13. Fishing Intensity by vessels >15m in length – Mobile Other 14. Fishing Intensity by vessels >15m in length – Other 15. Biologically Sensitive Area 16. Greencastle Codling Area 17. Periwinkle Access Points 18. Fishing Ports 19. Shellfish Waters Directive 20. Commercial Ports 21. Dumping at Sea Boundaries 22. Marinas 23. Local Ferry Ports 24. Sea Fishing Spots These datasets were scored to represent the contribution of the individual classes to marine food provision. For the full processing methodology, including a comprehensive list of the input datasets, associated scores, full processing methodology, including any modification of the input data refer to the project Final Report (resource 23). The final raster dataset has been created at a cell size of 50m. All processing steps were carried out at a cell size of 50m. Metadata for all input datasets is included with the datasets in question. Filename / Map package / PNG: 3010_MAES15-ESmap_FoodMarine.tif / 3010_MAES15-ESmap_FoodMarine.mpk / 3010_MAES15-ESmap_FoodMarine.png Project processing was carried out in EPSG29902. Final outputs were converted to EPSG4326, using the transformation provided by proj4 (https://trac.osgeo.org/proj/wiki/FAQ), which is used by most GIS software for coordinate system manipulation. The source Coordinate Reference System is WGS84. The transformation used is equivalent in accuracy to the one held by NPWS. This dataset has been created using various processing and GIS software including; ArcMap 10.1, FME, and QGIS. |
