| Common/harbour seal (Phoca vitulina) - Orkney and North Coast - fine-scale at sea usage map |
This layer is displays a fine scale common/ harbour seal (Phoca vitulina) at sea usage map. These ‘usage’ maps are produced by looking at movement data from telemetry tagged seals between 2003 and 2015. The resulting patterns of usage are scaled to population levels using data collected in aerial survey counts at haul-out sites, to produce estimates of mean density at a spatial resolution of 0.6 km x 0.6 km grid cells.

| Seaweed Consultation (2016) - Resource map |
This layer shows the distribution of seaweed and potential seaweed habitat. This was created to support Marine Scotland's Wild Harvesting of Seaweed and Seagrass SEA Environmental Report. The layer includes spatial information on seaweeds and seagrasses, as well as confidence in the data associated with each species. |
| Seaweed Consultation (2016) - Proposed Future Resource Harvesting Locations |
This layer was created to support Marine Scotland's Wild Harvesting of Seaweed and Seagrass SEA Environmental Report. The layer includes spatial information on potential future areas where seaweed and seagrass could be harvested. |
| Seaweed Consultation (2016) - Current Kelp Harvesting Methods |
This layer was created to support Marine Scotland's Wild Harvesting of Seaweed and Seagrass SEA Environmental Report. The layer includes spatial information on known areas where seaweed (Kelp) is currently harvested. |
| Seaweed Consultation (2016) - Current Red Seaweed Harvesting Methods |
This layer was created to support Marine Scotland's Wild Harvesting of Seaweed and Seagrass SEA Environmental Report. The layer includes spatial information on known areas where seaweed and seagrass (Red Seaweed) is currently harvested. |
| Seaweed Consultation (2016) - Current Green Seaweed Harvesting Methods |
This layer was created to support Marine Scotland's Wild Harvesting of Seaweed and Seagrass SEA Environmental Report. The layer includes spatial information on known areas where seaweed and seagrass (Green Seaweed) is currently harvested. |
| Seaweed Consultation (2016) - Current Wracks Harvesting Methods |
This layer was created to support Marine Scotland's Wild Harvesting of Seaweed and Seagrass SEA Environmental Report. The layer includes spatial information on known areas where seaweed and seagrass (Wracks) is currently harvested. |
| Sand Dune Vegetation (Habitat Map of Scotland) (NatureScot WMS) |
The Sand Dune Vegetation Survey of Scotland 2012 (SDVSS) is a digitised version of surveys completed by Dr. Tom Dargie between 1994-2000. Please see metadata for Sand Dune Vegetation Survey 2012 (SDVSS) for more details about this data. Qualifying habitat types, recorded in the SDVSS, were converted to Annex I habitats. The proportions for mosaics that were recorded as part of the original survey were maintained. |
| Saltmarsh Survey (Habitat Map of Scotland) (NatureScot WMS) |
From 2010-2012 all known saltmarshes larger than 3ha were surveyed across the Scottish mainland and offshore islands, to compile the first detailed comprehensive national survey of this habitat in Scotland. All saltmarsh and brackish swamp was mapped using the National Vegetation Classification. All mapped areas were digitised to a 1:4,000 scale GIS database. The condition of each saltmarsh site visited was assessed. The primary aims of the Scottish Saltmarsh Survey (SSS) were to obtain information on the morphology, vegetation community structure and species found on saltmarsh sites above 3ha in area or 500m in linear extent. The survey was a joint project between Scottish Natural Heritage (SNH) and the Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA). Please see the metadata for Saltmarsh Survey of Scotland for more details about this data |
| Coastal and Vegetated Shingle (Habitat Map of Scotland) (NatureScot WMS) |
GIS based habitat polygons representing coastal vegetated shingle for Scotland. The dataset is derived from existing sources, modified through aerial photographic interpretation and field survey. This layer is intended to be the final pass since subsequent work was undertakento further validate the original CVS GIS layer produced by the GeoData Institute to improve accuracy where no secondary data were available. Field validation was carried out in Scotland in September and October 2011 and August to November 2012 by Roland Randall, Ian Strachan, Jonathan Cox, Alan Booth, Frazer Milne and S. Smith (CES) and Clive Bealey. Contains Ordnance Survey data © Crown copyright and database right (2016) Ian Strachan, Alan Booth and CES, Jon Cox and Roland Randall collected the data in the field. All post processing was carried out inhouse at the GeoData Institute by Dan Hall Ballester, Dan Ellis, Andy Murdock and Gemma Gubbins Please see the metadata for Coastal Vegetated Shingle Survey of Scotland for more details about this data and the full report.
