Title of dataset | Sea Cliffs of Ireland |
Narrative summary of dataset | This data describes the distribution of sea cliffs identified in the EU Directive on the Conservation of Habitats, Flora and Fauna, also known as the Habitats Directive. The data is presented in the Habitats Directive Article 17 2019 report called The Status of EU Protected Habitats and Species in Ireland, available here https://www.npws.ie/publications/article-17-reports. |
Summary of processing methodology | A detailed desk study was carried out to catalogue all sea cliff sites in Ireland using 2005 OSI aerial photographs and images of the Irish coastline captured in 2003. A conservation assessment and survey technique were developed (based on the pilot survey completed in 2009) and field surveys and assessments were carried out at 32 cliff sites around Ireland. This work was completed by January 21 2011. |
