The assessment methodology was refined, ArcGIS habitat maps were updated and conservation status was assessed for reporting under Article 17 of the Habitats Directive. The project deliverables consist of a final report, an MS Access database, a Turboveg database, four shapefiles comprising habitat maps and waypoints, and the National Conservation Assessments for the eight Annex I habitats. To undertake the following: a) an evaluation of the monitoring methodology used in the Coastal Monitoring Project (Ryle et al., 2009) and an adjustment of the targets used, in consultation with NPWS. b) a field survey of a representative sample of Irish sand dune systems (40 sites) to validate the findings of the Coastal Monitoring Project and to monitor any changes in the conservation status of the sand dune habitats present at each of the sites. c) an updated national assessment of the conservation status of Irish sand dune habitats.

A spot height may be expressed as AOD for "above ordnance datum". Usually mean sea level (MSL) is used for the datum. Malin Ordnance Datum Derivation of vertical height or depth (in metres) In the Republic of Ireland, OD for the Ordnance Survey of Ireland is Malin Ordnance Datum: the Mean Sea Level (MSL) at Portmoor Pier, Malin Head, County Donegal, between 1960 and 1969. 5731 EPSG Projection 5731 - Malin Head height Metres Derivation of Altitude OD based on Mean Sea Level, Malin Head 1960-1969 Esri shapefile v10+ National Parks and Wildlife Service Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage Ecological Data Manager +353-1-8882000 n/a National Parks and Wildlife Service 90 North King Street Dublin 7 D07 N7CV Ireland datadelivery@housing.gov.ie.ie https://www.npws.ie/sites/default/files/general/0701_SDMN11_Sand_Dune_Monitoring_upload_0.zip zip Sand Dunes Monitoring Project 2011 dataset published on NPWS website https://www.npws.ie/sites/default/files/publications/pdf/IWM75.pdf pdf Irish Wildlife Manual 75 published on NPWS website INSPIRE Data Specification on Provide Spatial Data Theme keyword INSPIRE Data Specifications v3.0 2011-06-15 The INSPIRE Directive or INSPIRE lays down a general framework for a Spatial Data Infrastructure (SDI) for the purposes of European Community environmental policies and policies or activities which may have an impact on the environment. false COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) No 1089/2010 of 23 November 2010 implementing Directive 2007/2/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards interoperability of spatial data sets and services INSPIRE Interoperability Regulation 2010-12-08 Level of conformance with the COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) No 1089/2010 of 23 November 2010 implementing Directive 2007/2/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards interoperability of spatial data sets and services false The shape file produced for the Coastal Monitoring Project (Coastal_Monitoring_Project_2004_2006) was compared to aerial photographs dating to 2005. In some cases, habitats which were visible on the aerial photographs were not indicated on the Coastal Monitoring Project shapefile. Likely locations were visited during the Sand Dunes Monitoring Project to ascertain whether previously unrecorded habitats were present. If a field survey confirmed that some habitats had gone unrecorded, the Coastal Monitoring Project shapefile was edited to include the habitats.
