2013 Basking shark SPOT tag 129446 surface positions (SNH WMS) |
The Priority Marine Feature (PMF) list contains 81 habitats and species considered to be of conservation importance in Scotland's seas. It includes many features which are characteristic of the Scottish marine environment, ranging from flame shell beds in coastal waters, to cold-water coral reefs of the deeper seas, and mobile species such as minke whale and basking shark.
To gain detailed insights into the distribution, habitat-use, movements and behaviour of basking sharks, Scottish Natural Heritage (SNH) and the University of Exeter initiated a research project to attach satellite tags to basking sharks in the summers of 2012 and 2013. This layer is part of a dataset that shows Basking shark satellite tagging data from 2012 and 2013 for a number of individual sharks. This layer is a Web Map Service that displays the satellite tagging data for surface positions for tag 129446.
The final results from satellite tagging of 61 basking sharks in the Sea of the Hebrides are presented in ‘SNH Commissioned Report 908: Basking shark satellite tagging project: insights into basking shark (Cetorhinus maximus) movement, distribution and behaviour using satellite telemetry - Final report’.

AIS Shipping Traffic - Average weekly density of fishing vessels 2012 - 2015 (time aware) |
Automatic Identification System (AIS) is a maritime navigation safety communications system adopted by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) to provide vessel information, primarily for the purposes of maritime safety. AIS data are collected by various organisations and can be analysed to provide a source of spatial information about vessel movements within the geographical limits of the system. This layer shows the average weekly shipping density, of fishing vessels, for northern UK at 2km grid resolution, featuring multiple years for NMPi's time-aware functionality.
AIS datasets were sampled from the first seven days of each month, commencing with January, at monthly intervals. The total value for all 12 weeks was divided by 12 to determine the weekly average, therefore decimal values may occur for certain cells. The weekly average was also multiplied by 52 to provide the estimated annual average.
