MULTIHAZ echo sounder coverage. CIRCASUR2020 campaign
Description
The information contained in this file corresponds to the prospected area with multibeam echoprobe (EM710) during the CIRCASUR2020 campaign, in the waters of the South Atlantic demarcation. This is the representation of the area where both bathymetry and reflectivity data have been obtained.
The area covered by the data provided covers waters of the Gulf of Cadiz.
It is a data set composed of polygonal elements, where each element represents the prospective area with EM710 with 100% coverage.
The development of this set of geographical information began in October 2020, thanks to the CIRCASUR2020 oceanographic campaign.
The geographical information collected is stored in a spatial database.
This work has been financed thanks to the project ‘Technical Scientific Advice for the Protection of the Marine Environment: Evaluation and Monitoring of Marine Strategies, Monitoring of Protected Marine Areas of State Competence (2018-2024)’. Marine Strategies are the marine environmental planning instrument created under Directive 2008/56/EC (as amended by Directive 2017/845) establishing a framework for Community action in the field of marine environmental policy (Marine Strategy Framework Directive), and have as their main objective the achievement of the Good Environmental Status (GES) of our seas. The 11 Good Environmental Status descriptors form the basis for the description and determination of good environmental status of the marine environment. They are established by the Directive in its Annex I. The marine assessment areas are located within the Marine Reporting Units (MRUs) defined in the framework of the Marine Strategies of Spain.
