National Ecosystem and Ecosystem Services Map – Supporting Ecosystem Service Information: Habitat Asset Register

Catagóir: Environment
Tuairimí: 352
Rátáil oscailteachta:

This dataset contains a habitat asset register for Ireland, e.g. a national scale habitat map conflating all nationally relevant habitat data into one dataset.

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. For a full list of the data used throughout the project workings, please refer to the project report.

Eolas Dualfhoinse 50m raster grid file used in the Mapping and Assessment of Ecosystems Service Project. Created by Environment Systems Ltd. (ESL). The dataset was derived through additive analysis of relevant spatial data from a conflation of listed datasets: 1. Base Layer - Corine 2. Connolly derived peatland map 3. RBMA13 – High bog cutaway 4. LPIS – Arable 5. LPIS - grassland 6. FIPS 7. WFD Lake segments 8. National Survey of Upland Habitats 9. NPWS semi-natural grassland survey 10.

OSi : Built-up areas (Buildings, Regional Roads, National Primary Roads, National Secondary Roads, Motorways) Intermediate layers were created for some of the datasets, as they required manipulation in order to be used in the data conflation to create the Habitat Asset Register (see Parker et. al., 2016*, p. 37 - for details). For the full processing methodology, including a comprehensive list of the input datasets, associated scores, full processing methodology, including any modification of the input data refer to the project Final Report (resource 23). The final raster dataset has been created at a cell size of 50m. All processing steps were carried out at a cell size of 50m. Metadata for all input datasets is included with the datasets in question.

The source Coordinate Reference System is Irish Transverse Mercator (ITM). The transformation used is equivalent in accuracy to the one held by NPWS. This dataset has been created using various processing and GIS software including; ArcMap 10.1, FME and QGIS.
