Almost all the projects have a tangible tourism benefit. The dataset maps Medieval and post-Medieval urban walled settlements as quantified and identified by Avril Thomas in her book “The Walled Towns of Ireland” Volumes 1 & 2 (1992), published by Irish Academic Press, Dublin.2018-12-07T21:52:18.027637+00:00https://data.gov.ie/dataset/69390796-042f-49e8-a33b-7c37c54b9137Coastal Soil Susceptibility2024-03-28T06:01:59.561885+00:00Heritage CouncilThis dataset was created to ascertain the level of vulnerability to erosion processes along 7 coastal local authorities. . The dataset classifies the coast line into areas at High, Medium or Low risk based on the subsoil type along the coast at that point. The data was extracted from the EPA/Teagasc subsoils dataset, with each subsoil type within this dataset classified with either a 'High', 'Moderate' or 'Low' ranking, depending on their susceptibility to erosion.2018-12-07T21:53:26.134565+00:00https://data.gov.ie/dataset/0d25ba50-13b9-43bc-befc-46c2e6df2341Wicklow Rock Art Project2024-03-28T06:02:03.377437+00:00Heritage CouncilThe Wicklow Rock Art Project (W.R.A.P.) was established by the School of Archaeology, University College Dublin, in May 2012 as a pilot scheme to explore the potential of photogrammetry in rock art recording. 17 known rock art sites were recorded using this technique, which involves taking a series of overlapping images of a rock art panel to create a 3D model. These computer models enable the creation of perspectives not possible in the field, and allow for repeated virtual contact with the rock art, while also monitoring deterioration to the actual panel. W.R.A.P. aims to create a rock art record which can be used as a research resource, a conservation tool, but also to encourage public engagement by presenting this record in a visually engaging and accessible manner. By creating an environment of public engagement and interaction, the project hopes to increase general awareness of rock art in Wicklow, which should result in an increase in identification of new rock art sites. Perhaps more importantly, it aims to increase a sense of identification with rock art sites and help to foster a sense of guardianship of this hidden art.

Ireland is a special place for wild birds. We are at the end of major flyways of waterfowl migrating south for the winter from North America, Greenland, Iceland and the Arctic. In spring and summer, Ireland provides important breeding grounds for species from the continent of Europe or Africa. Our long coastlines provide safe breeding and wintering grounds for large numbers of seabirds. In addition we have resident species which are scarce or rare in other parts of Europe.
Because birds migrate long distances, it is not sufficient to protect them over just part of their range, so the EU Birds Directive provides for a network of sites in all Member States to protect birds at their breeding, feeding, roosting and wintering areas. It identifies species which are rare, in danger of extinction or vulnerable to changes in habitat and which need protection.
In Ireland, we have 25 of these species regularly occurring. They include Bewicks and Whooper Swan, Greenland White-Fronted and Barnacle Geese, Corncrake, Golden Plover, Bar-Tailed Godwit, five species of tern, birds of prey including Hen Harrier, Peregrine, Merlin as well as the Nightjar, Kingfisher and Chough.
Specific proposals to designate Special Protection Areas (SPAs) in order to safeguard certain habitats pursuant to EU Directive requirements were recently advertised in the local press and on local radio. These proposals are intended to safeguard the habitat of these selected sites.
The EU Birds Directive (79/409/EEC) requires designation of SPAs for:
Listed rare and vulnerable species such as those mentioned above.
Regularly occurring migratory species, such as ducks, geese and waders.
Wetlands, especially those of international importance, which attract large numbers of migratory birds each year. (Internationally important means that 1% of the population of a species uses the site, or more than 20,000 birds regularly use the site.)
121 SPAs have been designated since 1985. 25 other sites enjoy legal protection and will shortly by designated as SPAs. However, further designations are required pursuant to the Birds Directive. The Minister will be publishing his proposals for the designation of additional sites on an on-going basis in Autumn 2007 and Spring 2008. It should be noted that many existing and future SPAs overlap with SACs. The Irish SPAs join a total of around 3,000 sites across the European Union.2024-02-15T00:26:12.504732+00:00https://data.gov.ie/dataset/47a107fc-2506-4762-8391-5b2f629db625Irish Landmark Trust2024-03-28T06:05:30.374294+00:00Heritage CouncilThe Irish Landmark Trust, since 1992, have been saving some of Ireland’s most iconic buildings, and making them accessible to the wider community.

This dataset is a comprehensive record of natural and cultural heritage facilities open to the public across the island of Ireland. The dataset was created to provide a comprehensive list of these types of heritage facility throughout Ireland, providing a temporal basis for research within this sector. The dataset was also created to provide a map that would enable researchers and tourists to search for natural and cultural heritage facilities geographically and by category. The dataset includes information on each facility's exhibitions, address and contact details.2018-12-07T22:11:01.396931+00:00https://data.gov.ie/dataset/2f123e1f-8e3c-4d2d-94c7-346317aeff84Maritime Collections2024-03-28T06:06:59.492699+00:00Heritage CouncilThe aim of this survey was to obtain a general overview of the maritime-related collections in Ireland, to ascertain the location, ownership, condition, overall theme, and nature of the contents of each collection.

The basic designation for wildlife is the Natural Heritage Area (NHA). This is an area considered important for the habitats present or which holds species of plants and animals whose habitat needs protection.
To date, 75 raised bogs have been given legal protection, covering some 23,000 hectares. These raised bogs are located mainly in the midlands. A further 73 blanket bogs, covering 37,000ha, mostly in western areas are also designated as NHAs.
In addition, there are 630 proposed NHAs (pNHAs), which were published on a non-statutory basis in 1995, but have not since been statutorily proposed or designated. These sites are of significance for wildlife and habitats. Some of the pNHAs are tiny, such as a roosting place for rare bats. Others are large - a woodland or a lake, for example. The pNHAs cover approximately 65,000ha and designation will proceed on a phased basis over the coming years.
An archive of the Site Synopses for pNHAs can be downloaded here pNHA Site Synopses archive [4.2MB]. This PDF portfolio will require Adobe Reader 8 or higher to view. Please note that these synopses are based in many cases on old survey data and may not accurately reflect the status of the site at the current time.
The Geological Survey of Ireland (GSI) is compiling a list of geological/geomorphological sites in need of protection through NHA designation. A committee of expert geologists provides an initial list of sites which then undergo a process of survey, reporting and review, to provide recommendations regarding NHA status or otherwise. The GSI has completed its list of karst (i.e. exposed limestone) and early fossil sites.
Prior to statutory designation, pNHAs are subject to limited protection, in the form of:
Rural Environment Protection Scheme (REPS) plans which require conservation of pNHAs and operate for a period of 5 years
Forest Service requirement for NPWS approval before they will pay afforestation grants on pNHA lands
Recognition of the ecological value of pNHAs by Planning and Licencing Authorities.
Under the Wildlife Amendment Act (2000) , NHAs are legally protected from damage from the date they are formally proposed for designation.2018-12-07T21:49:14.051125+00:00https://data.gov.ie/dataset/bbd3b4a7-d375-4c72-9443-23de7026deffMuseum Standards Programme for Ireland2024-03-28T06:08:24.558130+00:00Heritage CouncilThe Heritage Council’s main commitment to collections care comes through its support of the Museum Standards Programme for Ireland (MSPI).
