Metadata: Marine Intertidal Phase 1 Photographic Collection
Abstract:
A collection of photographs taken during the Marine Intertidal Phase 1 Mapping Survey of Wales and associated Microsoft Access database for viewing and displaying the images. Supplementary visual information for the Marine Intertidal Phase 1 Mapping Survey of Wales. The intertidal habitat mapping began in 1996 and was completed in 2005. All work has been undertaken by former Countryside Council for Wales' (CCW's) in house intertidal survey team. Surveys were undertaken to provide an assessment of sites as possible Sites of Special Scientific Importance (SSSI's) and as a basis for developing sensitivity mapping. They are also used in the production and evaluation of Environmental Impact Assessments (EIA's) and as an integrated information resource for local authorities' structure and development plans on the coast and for the consideration of planning applications.

| Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 8693 |
| Title | The title is used to provide a brief and precise description of the dataset such as 'Date', 'Originating organisation/programme', 'Location' and 'Type of survey'. All acronyms and abbreviations should be reproduced in full. | Marine Intertidal Phase 1 Photographic Collection |
| Alternative title | The purpose of alternative title is to record any additional names by which the dataset may be known. | Phase1 Intertidal Map Photos.lyr |
| File Identifier | The File Identifier is a code, preferably a GUID, that is globally unique and remains with the same metadata record even if the record is edited or transferred between portals or tools. | NRW_DS111013 |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | 4f4c4942-4343-5764-6473-313131303133 |
| Resource type | The resource type will likely be a dataset but could also be a series (collection of datasets with a common specification) or a service. | dataset |
| Start date | This describes the date the resource starts. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 1996-04-01 |
| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2005-10-31 |
| Frequency of updates | This describes the frequency with which the resource is modified or updated i.e. a monitoring programme that samples once per year has a frequency that is described as 'annually'. | notPlanned |
