    "name": "Marine Intertidal Phase 1 Database",
    "description": "This is a database of Marine intertidal Phase 1 survey data, which can be queried to provide information on biotope, species distribution, site details, uses and impacts, target notes and conservation interests. Following the completion of the intertidal project in 2007 the database was transferred to Apex software to be made available internally on the former Countryside Council for Wales (CCW) intranet. The intertidal phase 1 survey was undertaken to provide an integrated information resource for Local Authority structure and development plans on the coast and for the consideration of planning applications. The data collected is also used to provide regional information about habitat and biotope distribution, assessment of sites as possible Sites of Special Scientific Importance (SSSIs), a basis of sensitivity mapping and in the production and evaluation of Environmental Impact Assessments (EIAs). \r\n\r\nThe database itself aims to provide a storage system to effectively store the survey results whilst providing a convenient way to view and manipulate the data collected. Data validated to ensure it's entered onto the database correctly. The database has been designed to keep data entry errors to a minimum e.g. majority of data entry are taken from drop down menus, percentage values must add up to 100%, many fields are mandatory, and duplicate entries are not allowed. \r\n\r\nEach record in the database is checked against the data collection form by the data imputer and by a member of the survey team. A further validation is carried out when the data is cross checked with the digital map to ensure that the database and maps agree.",
