Abstract:  This is a compilation of OSPAR habitat polygon data for the northeast Atlanticsubmitted by OSPAR contracting parties. The compilation is coordinated by the UK's Joint Nature Conservation Committee, working with a representative from each of the OSPAR coastal contracting parties.This public dataset does not contain records relating to sensitive species (e.g. Ostrea edulis) in specific areas, or where data are restricted from public release by the owner's use limitations.This version was completed in July2015

Purpose: Public polygon dataset showing distribution of habitats on the OSPAR list of threatened and/or declining species and habitats within the North-east Atlantic Region.
