Map products: broad scale

The detail and scale of information used for 'BROADSCALE' maps will be determined by the contributor and released only after Association review.

  • fishery features shown at coarse-scale
  • data on grounds, 'terrain', statistics
  • maps released to support strategic assessment and accreditation
  • equivalent to Level 3 and 4 habitat maps in Regional Marine Planning.

1. Fishing ground overview

2. Grid with statistics, e.g. percent area trawled (example 75 x 75 km)

3. Main bottom types, names and fishing areas (mock example)

Fine scale maps may also be made.
