Metadata: Marine Licences Northern Ireland - 2011 to Present
Abstract:
The Marine and Coastal Access Act 2009 provides for a marine licensing system across England, Wales, Northern Ireland and Scotlandâ??s offshore region. In Northern Ireland, it applies to all our marine waters from the mean high water spring tide mark out to 12 nautical miles (the inshore region). This includes the waters of any sea lough, estuary, or river, so far as the tide flows at mean high water spring tide. DAERA Marine and Fisheries Division is responsible for licensing various activities such as construction works, deposits in the sea, removal of objects or aggregates from the seabed, dredging from the seabed, or use of explosives and incineration. This spatial layer show all the marine licence applications received to carry out a licensable activity under Part 4 of the Marine and Coastal Access Act 2009, from 2011 to the present.

| Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 2730 |
| 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 Licences Northern Ireland - 2011 to Present |
| Alternative title | The purpose of alternative title is to record any additional names by which the dataset may be known. | Marine Licence Applications received by DAERA, from 2011 to present, under Marine and Coastal Access Act, Marine Consents |
| 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. | b6687cabcb65f4439834bed2ae9daac9 |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | DAERAMFD0001 |
| 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 | 2011-01-01 |
| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2019-04-30 |
| Spatial resolution | This describes the spatial resolution of the dataset or the spatial limitations of the service. | inapplicable |
| 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'. | continual |

| Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | Data was collected from a variety of sources including plotting coordinates provided on application forms, scanning and georectifying paper map and shapefiles provided by applicants. Line and point data was buffered by 5 metres in order to polygonise all features so that they could be provided as a single layer. |
