The portal contains a wide range of marine datasets.

The webGIS was developed using the open source GIS software Minnesota MapServer, which can be freely downloaded and used to develop an online map- ping system. Accompanying the webGIS mapping interface is a very compre- hensive website providing both the scientist and the non-scientist with information about benthic habitat mapping and the process of producing a map, as well as details on a data model, metadata, and a series of case studies. It involved twelve European partners led by the Joint Nature Conservation Committee (JNCC). Funded by Interreg IIIB NW Europe, MESH was developed over three years, starting in 2004 and finishing in 2008. The Mapping European Seabed Habitats (MESH) marine mapping and metadata portal is one of the outcomes of the MESH project (. Links to satellite and text data, as well as Google Earth KML files are also provided. Clicking on a symbol takes the end- user to a separate web page with further options to display the data.
The Advanced mapping capability provides access to a similar map but with more functionality and many layers, including wind farms, buoys, and waveriders, that can be toggled on and off, selected, deselected, and redrawn. As with ICES Fishmap, the CEFAS web interface includes a Basic and Advanced mapping capability. This is a very simple interface to a map, where interac- tion of the mouse with each symbol also reveals the data for that buoy, which includes wind and temperature information. Another web-based interface provided by CEFAS is WaveNet ( mapping) which provides access to DEFRA’s wave buoy locations and wave height data. It operates in interactive Spatial Explorer and Ad- ministrator (iSEA), CEFAS’s spatial data explorer and webGIS interface for UK data (.
