The programme is the successor to the Irish National Seabed Survey (INSS) and concentrates on creating integrated mapping products related to the seabed.
To verify the results of sonar data, it is important to collect physical sediment samples from the seabed. These may be from the surface where grabs are used or may penetrate through the seabed and retain the vertical structure of the sediment by using various coring methods. The samples are then analysed to determine their effects on and interactions with the sonar data but also to determine the environmental conditions under which they were deposited.2021-05-20T02:20:17.434603+00:00https://data.gov.ie/dataset/32239f60-8ed6-4ac5-9847-57fed7ab6d50INFOMAR Seabed Survey Bathymetry (Multi-beam & LiDAR)2023-11-24T14:52:30.733953+00:00Geological Survey of IrelandThe INtegrated Mapping FOr the Sustainable Development of Ireland's MArine Resource (INFOMAR) programme is a joint venture between the Geological Survey of Ireland (GSI) and the Marine Institute (MI).

Bathymetry is the study of depth relative to sea level. It shows the variations in seabed relief as a result of changes in water depth and is the underwater equivalent to terrain or topography. Bathymetry data is primarily raster data, pixel values in the raster are a measurement of water depth.2018-12-07T22:17:49.523716+00:00https://data.gov.ie/dataset/ddced8f7-676e-4bfa-b939-ce9808d0ec43INSS INFOMAR Seabed Samples Particle Size Analysis2023-11-24T14:53:16.201260+00:00Geological Survey of IrelandThe INtegrated Mapping FOr the Sustainable Development of Ireland's MArine Resource (INFOMAR) programme is a joint venture between the Geological Survey of Ireland (GSI) and the Marine Institute (MI).

INFOMAR Seabed Samples Particle Size Analysis represent locations where samples have been taken and particle size analysis (PSA) carried out on samples.
Sediment type classification based on percentage sand, mud and gravel (after Folk 1954).
Every sediment is a mixture of grains of varying sizes. It groups grains into mud, sand and gravel on the basis of their diameter. The relative proportion of the grains in the three categories is then used to describe the sediment and is displayed in a diagram commonly called a “Folk triangle”. This classification has 15 terms to describe the seabed sediments.
Samples from the seabed are taken by grab and box core sampling instruments.
PSA is applied to determine the range of sediment sizes contained in the sample which can often reveal an insight about the processes operating in the depositional environment. The results show percentage gravels, sands, silt and mud present in the sample. This analysis is also used to determine if the sample is well or poorly sorted.2021-05-20T02:24:34.006938+00:00https://data.gov.ie/dataset/32ab2055-fc42-4ef4-8d17-d35e86b83e82Igneous2024-02-26T01:45:49.608845+00:00Department of Communications, Climate Action & EnvironmentData on the offshore geologic igneous features in the North Atlantic Ocean near Ireland. Igneous rock (derived from the Latin word ignis meaning fire) is one of the three main rock types, the others being sedimentary and metamorphic. Igneous rock is formed through the cooling and solidification of magma or lava. Igneous rock may form with or without crystallization, either below the surface as intrusive (plutonic) rocks or on the surface as extrusive (volcanic) rocks. This magma can be derived from partial melts of pre-existing rocks in either a planet's mantle or crust. Typically, the melting is caused by one or more of three processes: an increase in temperature, a decrease in pressure, or a change in composition. Over 700 types of igneous rocks have been described, most of them having formed beneath the surface of Earths crust.2018-12-07T21:57:56.538059+00:00https://data.gov.ie/dataset/d58d0c15-4861-4356-abcc-2901e30c2c0aOffshore Geologic Fault2024-02-26T01:46:49.433158+00:00Department of Communications, Climate Action & EnvironmentOffshore volcanic geologic faults in the North Atlantic Ocean.2018-12-07T22:00:18.302373+00:00https://data.gov.ie/dataset/aad88190-47c1-4ceb-b67c-1134b0e277ecOffshore Geologic Ridge2024-02-26T01:47:11.940234+00:00Department of Communications, Climate Action & EnvironmentData on the offshore volcanic geologic ridges near Ireland in the West European Basin.

Data includes contractor, line, survey Id, company, survey area name, project code and prefix details. A 2D survey typically contains numerous lines acquired orthogonally to the strike of geological structures (such as faults and folds) with a minimum of lines acquired parallel to geological structures to allow line-to-line tying of the seismic data and interpretation and mapping of structures. The data has been collected in seas around Ireland including the North Atlantic Ocean, Irish Sea, Saint George's Channel, Celtic Sea, North Channel and Inner Seas off the west coast of Scotland. The data has been collected for the period 1965-2015. 2D seismic survey data collection involves sound waves which are bounced off underground rock formations and the waves that reflect back to the surface are captured by recording sensors for later analysis. Seismic surveys are used to produce detailed images of local geology to determine the location and size of possible oil and gas reserves. Data has been collated by the Petroleum Affairs Division as part of its role to maximise the benefits to the Irish State from exploration for and production (E and P) of indigenous oil and gas resources. The dataset is considered an accurate recorded representation of 2D seismic surveys completed and logged by the Petroleum Affairs Division.2018-12-07T22:13:47.863389+00:00https://data.gov.ie/dataset/30fd109f-ea90-438e-8b64-7b5e26e13f55Marine Basin2024-02-26T01:52:50.283764+00:00Department of Communications, Climate Action & EnvironmentLocation of marine basin divisions in the North Atlantic around Ireland. A geological basin is a large low-lying area. It is often below sea level. There are five designated basins and each basin represents a large submarine depression of a generally circular, elliptical or oval shape and by depression we mean any depressed or lower area in the ocean floor.2018-12-07T22:14:59.532244+00:00https://data.gov.ie/dataset/b96e2d8a-8a4e-42ef-be5d-602031784e99Intrusive Bodies2024-02-26T01:54:44.397474+00:00Department of Communications, Climate Action & EnvironmentData on the offshore geologic intrusive bodies around Ireland. An intrusion is liquid rock that forms under Earth's surface. Magma from under the surface is slowly pushed up from deep within the earth into any cracks or spaces it can find, sometimes pushing existing country rock out of the way, a process that can take millions of years. As the rock slowly cools into a solid, the different parts of the magma crystallise into minerals.2018-12-07T22:19:52.470585+00:00https://data.gov.ie/dataset/78fa2c6b-27ff-483c-98ba-4f6b2fde97c3Offshore Geology2024-02-26T01:54:45.844857+00:00Department of Communications, Climate Action & EnvironmentThe Regional Ocean Modeling System (ROMS) is a free-surface, terrain-following, primitive equations ocean model widely used by the scientific community for a diverse range of applications. The operational Northeast Atlantic (NEATL) model is an implementation of the ROMS model that covers all Irish waters. The NEATL dataset contains parameters output by this model such as sea surface height (m), sea temperature (C), salinity, sea water X velocity (m/s) and sea water Y velocity (m/s). The NEATL model covers a portion of the eastern Atlantic ocean that from Iberian Peninsula to Iceland. The average horizontal resolution of the model grid is approximately 1900 metres but the horizontal horizontal resolution around Irish coastal waters is 1100 to 1500 metres. Model data was produced for the previous 30 days and 3 days into the future. The NEATL model was an operational model forced by operational atmospheric (ECMWF) and boundary (Copernicus GLOBAL_ANALYSIS_FORECAST_PHY_001_024) forcing. The NEATL operational system has provided a daily 3-day forecast and a weekly 7-day analysis. The NEATL model was run to forecast oceanographic parameters such as temperature, sea level and currents level for Irish coastal waters to support a variety of end-user services such as HAB (harmful algal bloom) warning systems and maritime search and rescue. The NEATL model was operated by the Oceanographic Services team within Ocean Science and Information Services division of the Marine Institute (Ireland).

of the landscape when drawing up objectives for their new county development plans, in the interests of proper planning and sustainable development. Landscape Character Areas are unique, geographically-specific areas of a particular landscape type. Each has its own individual character and identity, even though it shares the same generic characteristics with other areas of the same type. Landscape character areas are on the names of specific places.2021-09-07T16:23:02.086721+00:00https://data.gov.ie/dataset/153cbb77-7d15-4a8b-8cb5-01bf68c76f6dRoscommon County Council Landscape Character Types2024-03-29T06:12:19.488916+00:00Roscommon County CouncilSection 10, Planning and Development Act 2005 requires that all Local Authorities consider the character

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 distinct2021-09-07T16:24:02.009349+00:00https://data.gov.ie/dataset/029330e6-4d76-4b53-ae81-152cdce84239Wexford County Council Landscape Character Assessment 2013 -20192024-03-29T06:12:45.679582+00:00Wexford County CouncilDevelopment plans are created by Local Authorities to provided planned future land use.

The concept of LAP's within the framework of higher-level plans (such as Regional Planning Guidelines and County Development Plans) are to provide more detailed planning policies for areas where significant development and change is anticipated, without having to prepare very detailed local planning policies and objectives for many specific areas within county development plans.
The Planning Authority (the Council) and An Bord Pleanala must take account of the provisions of an LAP when considering an application for planning permission for a development located within the area defined by a local plan.
