Abstract
An international team of scientists, working over the last four years, has developed a framework for Mapping European Seabed Habitats (MESH). The project achievements far exceeded those originally planned, and the Partners are eager the standards, protocols, tools, techniques and guides produced, are adopted by a wider group of marine practitioners. This presentation will describe some of the key outputs of the project including: an online meta-database of over 1000 seabed surveys; a mapping website – the MESH webGIS, the comprehensive “Guide to Marine Habitat Mapping” and, the first unified seabed habitat map of north west Europe.
