  <dc:description xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Intertidal habitat map of the Allonby Bay Highly Protected Marine Area (HMPA), derived from UAV (drone) RGB imagery and LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) data collected in September 2024, using unsupervised imagery classification. Habitats mapped as polygons representing broadscale habitats and biotopes, classified according to the JNCC Marine Habitat Classification (v22.04). Limitations include an estimated 2 m positional offset in the ortho-mosaics and limited ground-truthing data. Habitats defined using expert judgement, with confidence assessed based on proximity to ground-truthing data, data quality, and level of biotope assignment.</dc:description>
