Coastal Soil Susceptibility

Description

This dataset was created to ascertain the level of vulnerability to erosion processes along 7 coastal local authorities. . The dataset classifies the coast line into areas at High, Medium or Low risk based on the subsoil type along the coast at that point. The data was extracted from the EPA/Teagasc subsoils dataset, with each subsoil type within this dataset classified with either a ‘High’, ‘Moderate’ or ‘Low’ ranking, depending on their susceptibility to erosion.
