WelcomeHelp

April 2011 saw the start of marine planning in the East Inshore and East Offshore plan areas and the MMO is currently collecting data and information for the scoping stage of the marine planning process.

Click on 'View' to see a selection of datasets from the marine planning evidence base and on the icon next to the data layer to view further information. This includes a description of the data layer, its owner and origin. You then have the opportunity to comment on any of the datasets we have displayed or suggest a new dataset.We expect to add new data layers throughout the planning process as they become available. These data layers will follow the categories in the Marine Policy Statement.

Much of the data displayed is regularly updated by its responsible owner. Since the data layers displayed on the planning portal are not linked to a live feed, they may not always be the most up to date.
Please click on the ‘info’ icon next to the layer to view the date when the layer was last updated. Stakeholders are encouraged to consider the data layers on the planning portal with a view to whether they are the most appropriate to use for marine planning, rather than the most up to date.
