The objective of the associated project was to summarise how the fisheries habitats developed during the countryside Council for Wales (CCW) habitat sensitivity project intersected with Special Area of Conservation (SACs), SAC features and fishing activity. This sets the fisheries sensitivity work in the context of the Habitats Directive. The data used for this project was in the process of being revised therefore the aim of the project was to produce a toolkit which would allow the analysis to be repeated in future. The outputs from this project included: 1. MapBasic scripts 2. Set of processed output layers 3. Set of Excel spreadsheet summarising the data 4. Overall report, archive appendix and technical appendix. The outputs were to be used by CCW to determine whether sensitive habitats were subject to fishing activity and whether these situations occurred within SACs and SAC features. The data could also be used as a baseline for discussions with fishermen. As of April 1st, 2013 data is held and managed by Natural Resources Wales (NRW)

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. | Distribution of Fisheries Habitats and Fishing Activity Project Ouputs |
Alternative title | The purpose of alternative title is to record any additional names by which the dataset may be known. | Data prosiect Dosbarthiad Cynefinoedd Pysgodfeydd a Gweithgareddau Pysgota |
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. | 4f4c4942-4343-5764-6473-313135323731 |
Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | 115271 |
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 | 1996-12-31 |
End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2014-06-01 |
Spatial resolution | This describes the spatial resolution of the dataset or the spatial limitations of the service. | inapplicable |

Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | SAC feature layers, intertidal Phase 1 habitat data, HABMAP subtidal habitat data and fishing activity layers from the Fishing Atlas were processed using the Fisheries Habitat toolkit to create output layers for each gear category and feature type showing which gear types and habitat types occur within each category and their spatial extent. The outputs were used to create a series of Excel spreadsheets summarising the spatial data. Details of the processes used by the toolkit are given in the Technical Appendix. The final outputs are modelled and may be re-run by CCW on a regular basis, using the tools provided. The data was created using an automated process to ensure processing was identical for all feature types. The data was based upon Fishing Atlas activ ity layers, intertidal phase 1 habitat data, HABMAP subtidal habitat data and SAC feature boundaries. Some of this data may be out of date therefore datasets are indicative rather than definitive. |
