Project Partners include The North Wales Fisherman's Cooperative Limited, Bangor Mussel Producers Limited and The Welsh Federation of Sea Anglers. The project sets out to inform the sustainable management of the Welsh marine environment by collecting and mapping fishing activity and subsequently combining this with information on seabed habitats and their sensitivity to such activities. This data is related to habitat sensitivity. Habitat Sensitivity is based on the resistance and resilience of a habitat to a particular fishing intensity from a fishing gear type. Sensitivity is recorded as Low, Medium or High. The data consists of output generated for nine different gear types - King Scallop Dredging, Queen Scallop Dredging, Mussel Seed Dredging, Light Otter Trawling, Bottom Set Nets, Potting, Sea Angling and Casual and Professional Hand Gathering. There are multiple outputs for Potting and Sea Angling for commercial and recreational sectors. The purpose of this data capture was to examine the spatial extent of fishing activities and the determine the habitats affected by different fishing gear types in an area around Anglesey. A 12 nautical mile buffered zone around the Isle of Anglesey / Ynys Mon, extending from Nefyn in the West, to Colwyn Bay in the East. Due to the sensitivity of fishing intensity related data two versions of the Fishmap Môn habitat sensitivity level data were created, both a detailed and generalised version. This detailed version of the dataset shows the precise locations of the fishing activities, and the data also contains specific information about the fishing activities, and so is restricted to the FishMap Môn Team and certain partners - contact the dataset owner for more information.
