Data provided by the Marine Institute, and may also incorporate data from other agencies and bodies.Ireland’s ports play a crucial role in facilitating our economic growth and prosperity, as well as food security. Ports and harbours are key sites for land-sea interaction, acting as hubs for a wide range of activities that occur in the maritime area. The National Ports Policy (NPP) provides the framework for the provision of port services. Strategic development of ports is also supported through the Government’s National Development Plan and National Planning Framework. In a European context, Regulation (EU) No 1315/2013 sets out a common framework for the creation of state-of-the-art, interoperable networks for the development of the internal market: the trans-European transport networks (TEN-T).The NMPF aims to safeguard the operation of ports as key actors in the economic wellbeing of the State through the provision of safe and sustainable maritime transport, and to facilitate a competitive and effective market for maritime transport services. NMPF policies also help to ensure adequate capacity to meet present and future demand and emphasises the need to adapt to the impacts of climate change.

The Defence Organisation provides a broad range of marine security services; it also undertakes a diverse range of non-security related tasks in Irish waters and beyond. The Sea-Fisheries Protection Authority (SFPA) as competent Authority has a Service Level Agreement with the Department of Defence (DoD) to secure efficient enforcement of sea-fisheries law through support from the Irish Defence Forces. The Naval Service is the State's principal seagoing agency, with a general responsibility to meet contingent and actual maritime defence requirements. In support of the Navy, the Air Corps’ Maritime Patrol Aircraft are primarily tasked on domestic fishery protection missions. Any proposal that has the potential to interfere with the performance by the Defence Forces of their security and non-security related tasks must be subject to consultation with the Defence Organisation. This includes potential interference with: Safety of navigation and access to naval facilities; Firing, test or exercise areas; Communication, and surveillance systems; and Fishery protection functions. Additionally, Haulbowline Naval Base in Cork is of strategic importance and there may be a need for future expansion of the Naval Base. Any future development proposals in Cork Harbour will also need to take cognisance of the requirements of the Naval Service.

Offshore Renewable Energy: Potential Foreshore Site Investigation licence locations related to potential offshore renewable energy related infrastructure, and current offshore renewable energy project locations. The extent of state owned foreshore is normally defined to landward by the High Water Mark as shown on the OSI Historic 1888-1913 25 Inch mapping (https://webapps.geohive.ie/mapviewer/index.html ) and to seaward by the 12 nautical mile limit of the Territorial Seas (https://data.gov.ie/dataset/maritime-limits-irish-territorial-sea ). The Foreshore Act 1933, as amended, requires that a lease or licence must be obtained for any activity on State-owned foreshore, which represents the greater part of the foreshore. The Act provides for the issuing of licences or leases which are in the public interest. A lease relates to buildings or other structures and is generally used for a development that requires exclusive occupation of the foreshore. A licence is generally issued for a development or activity that does not require exclusive occupation of the foreshore and moorings also fall into this category. Each application is the subject of a range of detailed statutory assessments. Details on Foreshore applications are available at https://www.gov.ie/en/collection/f2196-foreshore-applications-and-determinations/ Please note that a foreshore licence for site investigation activity related to a potential Offshore Renewable Energy (ORE) infrastructure project is just a survey of an area of foreshore to ascertain suitability for possible ORE physical infrastructure in the future. Such a licence does not result in permanent physical infrastructure being placed on the foreshore. With regards to the ORE physical infrastructure (arrays, cables, etc.), a separate application, directly related to such infrastructure, would be required and would undergo a robust application process, including public consultation. Clicking on a polygon’s Web Link launches the relevant page of the Foreshore website that provides the full suite of relevant application information including the various statutory assessment material. The current status of the application is also noted.

This dataset contains a raster file showing the contribution of land to the regulation of greenhouse gases (carbon) through carbon sequestration associated with the soil. This dataset is part of a dataset series that establishes an ecosystem service maps (national scale) for a set of services prioritised through stakeholder consultation and any intermediate layers created by Environment Systems Ltd in the cause of the project. The individual dataset resources in the datasets series are to be considered in conjunction with the project report: https://www.npws.ie/research-projects/ecosystems-services-mapping-and-assessment The project provides a National Ecosystem and Ecosystem Services (ES) map for a suite of prioritised services to assist implementation of MAES (Mapping and Assessment of Ecosystems and their services) in Ireland. This involves stakeholder consultation for identification of services to be mapped, the development of a list of indicators and proxies for mapping, as well as an assessment of limitations to ES mapping on differing scales (Local, Catchment, Region, National, EU) based on data availability. Reporting on data gaps forms part of the project outputs. The project relied on the usage of pre-existing data, which was also utilised to create intermediate data layers to aid in ES mapping.

Landscape Character Types in Roscommon County published in the Roscommon County Development Plan 2014-2020. Landscape Character Types are distinct landscapes that are relatively homogeneous in character. They are generic in nature in that they may occur in different areas in different parts of the country, but wherever they occur they broadly share similar combinations of geology, topography, drainage patterns, vegetation, historical land use and settlement pattern. For example drumlins and mountain moorlands are recognisable and distinct.   Dataset Publisher: Roscommon County Council, Dataset language: English, Spatial Projection: Web Mercator, Date of Creation: 2011, Update Frequency: As Required.  Roscommon County Council provides this information with the understanding that it is not guaranteed to be accurate, correct or complete.

The survey classifies hydromorphological condition using WFD nomenclature: High, Good, Moderate, Poor, Bad. Its typical use is to support the designation of high ecological status sites. Other applications of the RHAT method include assessing hydromorphological pressures, determining enhancement/restoration works required and pre-/post- works conditions for specific projects. Research and Operations teams based in Inland Fisheries Ireland have been using the RHAT methodology to assess habitat condition across various sites and catchments of interest. The OPW Environmental River Enhancement Programme (EREP) uses the RHAT methodology to collect hydromorphology data on a catchment-wide basis using a Survey123 RHAT form. Further detailed information on these surveys is available in the annual reports, which can be found on the website.   For more information on the RHAT methodology see the following references: RHAT Training Manual (daera-ni.gov.uk) ISBN: 978-1-907053-65-8 River Habitat Survey (Environment Agency 2003, Raven et al., 1998) REST (JSON)
