Gridded data (GeoTiff format) produced in the context of the FLAG
Aquaculture Mapping project (2018-2019). The purpose of the project was to
identify and map areas best suited (and with least conflict) to specific types
of sustainable marine aquaculture, within the boundaries of the Dorset and
East Devon Fisheries Local Action Group (FLAG) area. The aquaculture potential
layers were derived by combining information on conservation and legislative
boundaries, human infrastructure and activity constraints, with environmental
requirements for various combinations of aquaculture species and growing
system, to identify areas of potential for each species/system combination.
The filenames of layers representing unique species/system combinations are in
the format:
‘Dorset-EDevon-FLAG_[**species_name**]_[**growing_system**
]_AquaPotential.tif’
The filenames of layers representing grouped species/systems are in the
format:
‘Dorset-EDevon-FLAG_[**species_group**]_ALL_AquaPotential.tif’
The data layers represent a broad overview of aquaculture potential in the
Dorset and East Devon FLAG area, but detailed site-specific investigations
would be required for local planning applications and licensing purposes.

Modelled raster layers (GeoTiff format) of aquaculture potential with values
ranging between 0 and 1, where the value 0 represents no potential and 1
represents full potential. Each gridded layer was derived by modelling a
suitability score based on environmental requirements for the specific
combination of species and culture method, then masking with an exclusion
layer based on relevant conservation, legislative, human infrastructure
feature and activity boundaries, setting cells in areas of conflict to 0.
