Fugro were commissioned to undertake a post storm LiDAR survey of the soft sedimentary areas along the north coast of Northern Ireland in March 2022. This survey was to cover the following areas: Curran Strand, Portrush East Strand, Portstewart Strand and Downhill Beach to Magilligan. This project was commissioned following the successive storm events during February and March 2022 (Storm Dudley, Storm Eunice and Storm Franklin) which did considerable damage to the sandy beaches along the North Coast. The objective of this survey was to ascertain change which has occurred along these soft sediment coastlines at the north coast since the baseline survey, which was acquired in 2021. Data was provided in the same format as the topographic LiDAR data collected in the Northern Ireland 3-Dimensional Coastal Survey to allow changes between these two datasets to be ascertained. Later in the year Fugro were commissioned to undertake a second LiDAR survey of the north coast from White Rocks to Magilligan in September 2022. The aim of this repeat survey was to ascertain the levels of recovery along the soft sediment coastlines since March 2022. As with the initial survey undertaken by Fugro this topographic LiDAR survey collected data from the intertidal area to 10m inland for the same soft sediment areas along the north coast, with data being acquired at 0.5m resolution. The survey was quite restrictive when it could be flown: it had to be 2 hours either side of Low Water, during clear conditions below 6000ft, sun had to be at a suitable angle to capture imagery and as photography was being captured the survey could only be flown during day light hours. All data collected was to be directly comparable with the data collected in the initial post storm Survey undertaken, as this would help us to understand and accurately quantify how our soft, sedimentary coastlines respond and recover from extreme storm events. This is the Digital Terrain Model that was collected as part of the post-storm recovery survey.

The primary objective from this project was to acquire historical shoreline information for all of the Northern Ireland coastline. Having this detailed understanding of the coast’s shoreline position and geometry over annual to decadal time periods is essential in any management of the coast. The historical shoreline analysis was based on all available Ordnance Survey maps and aerial imagery information. Analysis looked at position and geometry over annual to decadal time periods, providing a dynamic picture of how the coastline has changed since the start of the early 1800s. Once all datasets were collated, data was interrogated using the ArcGIS package – Digital Shoreline Analysis System (DSAS). DSAS is a software package which enables a user to calculate rate-of-change statistics from multiple historical shoreline positions. Rate-of-change was collected at 25m intervals and displayed both statistically and spatially allowing for areas of retreat/accretion to be identified at any given stretch of coastline. The DSAS software will produce the following rate-of-change statistics: Net Shoreline Movement (NSM) – the distance between the oldest and the youngest shorelines. Shoreline Change Envelope (SCE) – a measure of the total change in shoreline movement considering all available shoreline positions and reporting their distances, without reference to their specific dates. End Point Rate (EPR) – derived by dividing the distance of shoreline movement by the time elapsed between the oldest and the youngest shoreline positions. Linear Regression Rate (LRR) – determines a rate of change statistic by fitting a least square regression to all shorelines at specific transects. Weighted Linear Regression Rate (WLR) - calculates a weighted linear regression of shoreline change on each transect. It considers the shoreline uncertainty giving more emphasis on shorelines with a smaller error. The end product provided by Ulster University is an invaluable tool and digital asset that has helped to visualise shoreline change and assess approximate rates of historical change at any given coastal stretch on the Northern Ireland coast.

DAERA commissioned Ulster University to undertake a Historical Shoreline Analysis project of the Northern Ireland coastline. A key requirement of the Historical Shoreline Analysis Project was to delineate first order coastal cell boundaries for the entire Northern Ireland coastline. Coastal cells are paramount for coastal managers to calculate the sediment budget on a specific coastal sector and identify zones within which changes to the coast might affect adjacent coastal areas. The boundary of each coastal cell is identified and mapped according to two basic types: littoral drift divides and sediment sinks. Littoral drift divides – These boundary types normally occur at a point where the coastal orientation changes abruptly (for example, at a headland), or where sediment drift occurs in opposing directions. Sediment sinks – These boundary types are the end points where sand or gravel transport routes terminate or meet. These can occur at deeply indented bays, tidal inlets, and estuaries. Sediment tends to accumulate in such locations forming beaches and/or sedimentary landforms at or close to the shore. The boundaries identified in the Historical Shoreline Analysis Project were delineated using the historical Ordnance Survey maps and the aerial photographs as well as expert coastal geomorphological knowledge. The end result is a spatial tool which will be extremely useful for future coastal management. This is the output, which divides the Northern Ireland coastline into 7 first order coastal cells.

Groundwater Drinking Water Protected Areas (DWPA's) submitted as part of the Water Framework Directive (WFD) 2nd cycle reporting in 2016. The extent of each protected area was created by NIEA Land & Groundwater team. In order to provide water for people to drink we abstract raw water from reservoirs, rivers and the ground (known as groundwater). These areas are referred to a Drinking Water Protected Areas (DWPAs) within the Water Framework Directive. Where necessary this raw water is treated to purify it for us to drink. Groundwater DWPA's include areas where water is/ can be abstracted for public or private drinking water supplies, for direct inclusion within food (e.g. cooking or food preparation including processing, preservation or marketing of products or substances intended for human consumption), but not water intended for indirect uses such as spray irrigation. <span style='text-align: left; color: rgb(47, 60, 22); text-transform: none; text-indent: 0px; letter-spacing: normal; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12.24px; font-style: normal; font-weight: 400; word-spacing: 0px; float: none; display: inline !important; white-space: normal; orphans: 2; widows: 2; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;'>

About this layer This data represents NIEA surveys and may not represent the entire extent of habitat or species across Northern Ireland. The Fen, swamp and flush Inventory incorporates evidence collected from a research contract to identify and survey areas of lowland fens of high nature conservation value in Counties Down and Armagh together with ongoing surveys by NIEA Conservation Science Habitat Survey Team (HST). The research focused on identifying fens in Counties Down and Armagh where the incidence of inter-drumlin fens is high. These fens are particularly important within Annex 1 of the Habitats Directive. The most extensive and diverse priority Lowland Fens and Reedbeds have also been identified in county Tyrone through surveys by HST. This only represents a partial dataset and does not include the complete priority Lowland Fen and Reedbed resource in Northern Ireland. Where point data only is available for older fen surveys across Northern Ireland, further mapping is required to provide a fuller representation of all priority fen communities in Counties Fermanagh, Derry/Londonderry and Antrim. Upland Flushes, Fens and Swamps are largely unrecorded.

Fugro were commissioned to undertake a post-storm LiDAR survey of the soft sedimentary areas along the north coast of Northern Ireland in March 2022 This survey was to cover the following areas: Curran Strand, Portrush East Strand, Portstewart Strand and Downhill Beach to Magilligan. This project was commissioned following the successive storm events during February and March 2022 (Storm Dudley, Storm Eunice and Storm Franklin) which did considerable damage to the sandy beaches along the North Coast. The objective of this survey was to ascertain change which has occurred along these soft sediment coastlines at the north coast since the baseline survey, which was acquired in 2021. Data was provided in the same format as the topographic LiDAR data collected in the Northern Ireland 3-Dimensional Coastal Survey to allow changes between these two datasets to be ascertained. This is the Digital Terrain Model created from the post-storm LiDAR data.

The Geological Survey of Northern Ireland (GSNI) was commissioned to produce a Northern Ireland wide coastal geological dataset, detailing the bedrock geology. GSNI used the 1;10,000 digital bedrock geology map to create a coastal dataset which extends inland 200 meters and out to a seaward depth of approx. 10 metres, matching the extend of the Northern Ireland 3-Dimensional Coastal Survey. This involved refinement of the existing 1;10,000 map where signification coastal change has occurred since the original survey. Where gaps existed, unpublished datasets were used.

The Geological Survey Northern Ireland (GSNI) was commissioned to complete the coastal superficial geology project in November 2022. The superficial geology dataset produced extends 200m inland from the Low Water Mark. In order to create this dataset, the GSNI used the existing 1:10,000 superficial geology map, updating and improving this existing map with the findings from the Northern Ireland 3-Dimensional Costal Survey, to provide a clear representation of the superficial geology for the entire coastline.
The Water Framework Directive (WFD) required Northern Ireland to define both surface and groundwaters as a coherent set of hydrological units. These units would then be monitored and managed to prevent deterioration in water quality and aquatic ecosystems through the implementation a programme of measures to drive improvements. This map displays Northern Ireland lakes which are greater than 50ha, which are assessed under WFD legislation and have been reported to EU from 2016.
Fugro were commissioned to undertake a post storm LiDAR survey of the soft sedimentary areas along the north coast of Northern Ireland in March 2022. This survey was to cover the following areas: Curran Strand, Portrush East Strand, Portstewart Strand and Downhill Beach to Magilligan. This project was commissioned following the successive storm events during February and March 2022 (Storm Dudley, Storm Eunice and Storm Franklin) which did considerable damage to the sandy beaches along the North Coast. The objective of this survey was to ascertain change which has occurred along these soft sediment coastlines at the north coast since the baseline survey, which was acquired in 2021. Data was provided in the same format as the topographic LiDAR data collected in the Northern Ireland 3-Dimensional Coastal Survey to allow changes between these two datasets to be ascertained. Later in the year Fugro were commissioned to undertake a second LiDAR survey of the north coast from White Rocks to Magilligan in September 2022. The aim of this repeat survey was to ascertain the levels of recovery along the soft sediment coastlines since March 2022. As with the initial survey undertaken by Fugro this topographic LiDAR survey collected data from the intertidal area to 10m inland for the same soft sediment areas along the north coast, with data being acquired at 0.5m resolution. The survey was quite restrictive when it could be flown: it had to be 2 hours either side of Low Water, during clear conditions below 6000ft, sun had to be at a suitable angle to capture imagery and as photography was being captured the survey could only be flown during day light hours. All data collected was to be directly comparable with the data collected in the initial post storm Survey undertaken, as this would help us to understand and accurately quantify how our soft, sedimentary coastlines respond and recover from extreme storm events. This is the orthophotography that was collected as part of the post-storm recovery survey.
Water Framework Directive (WFD) legislation requires the definition of both surface and groundwaters as a coherent set of hydrological units which could be monitored and managed. Certain parcels of land situated between river water bodies and transitional or coastal water bodies did not warrant classification as a river water body. Such parcels of land are defined as coastal interbasins and have not formed part of the 1st or 2nd cycle classification process. The European Water Framework Directive was transposed to national legislation through the Water Environment (Water Framework Directive) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2017. The Water (Amendment) (Northern Ireland) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019 ensures that the Water Framework Directive (WFD) (as transposed) and the various supporting pieces of water legislation remain implemented in Northern Ireland as National legislation.
The field probe has been deployed by NIEA’s Freshwater Monitoring and Assessment team as part of a long term, high frequency water quality monitoring project. It records Dissolved Oxygen (%Saturation) and temperature (°C) in the Upper Bann River at Portadown. Data is recorded every 30 minutes and loaded onto the public platform approximately every 30 days. Please note: Data is non-validated and should therefore be treated as provisional and may be subject to revisions. Many factors can affect the reliability of real time data, including environmental changes and sensor malfunction. Disclaimer - All materials and information are provided “AS IS”. Please seek and follow professional advice relating to Lough Neagh and its tributaries. Further details of the DAERA disclaimer can be found here. The probe has an optical DO sensor and a temperature sensor. The logger collects measurements of dissolved oxygen with an accuracy of +/- 5% and temperature to +/- 0.1 degrees C. Temperature range is 0 to 35 degrees C with an accuracy of +/- 0.1 degrees C. Oxygen range is 0 to 150% saturation. Maintenance: Probe maintenance and download occur monthly.

About this layer: In Northern Ireland water abstraction and impoundment is controlled by The Water Abstraction and Impoundment (Licensing) Regulations (Northern Ireland 2006, as amended by The Water Abstraction and Impoundment (Licensing) (Amendment) Regulations. (Northern Ireland) 2007. The regulations apply to all groundwater and surface water abstractions that abstract more than 10m3 per day. Abstractions less than this are Permitted Controlled Activities and are automatically authorised by NIEA. What can you do with the layer? Visualisation: This layer can be used for visualisation online in web maps. Analysis: This layer can be used in dashboards. Download: The data is downloadable.
This file contains the 2018 overall surface water body status, reported to Europe as a 2nd Cycle interim classification for Water Framework Directive in 2018. It contains the following surface water bodies (river, lakes, coastal and transitional waters) A 2018 classification was not undertaken for groundwater or superficial groundwater. The European Water Framework Directive was transposed to national legislation through the Water Environment (Water Framework Directive) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2017 which required data reporting to Europe. The Water (Amendment) (Northern Ireland) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019 ensures that the Water Framework Directive (WFD) (as transposed) and the various supporting pieces of water legislation are implemented in Northern Ireland without a requirement to report data to Europe. The legislation defines 6 year cycles of monitoring and action to improve or maintain environmental water quality standards.

The European Water Framework Directive was transposed to national legislation through the Water Environment (Water Framework Directive) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2017. The Water (Amendment) (Northern Ireland) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019 ensures that the Water Framework Directive (WFD) (as transposed) and the various supporting pieces of water legislation remain implemented in Northern Ireland as National legislation. Surface Drinking Water Protected Areas as defined by Article 10 of the Water Framework Directive were identified as part of the 2nd Cycle in 2016. The protected areas were created from the 2016 updated 450 river water bodies with input and agreement from Northern Ireland Water. This layer forms part of the designated protected areas as defined under the Water Framework Directive legislation. There are no plans to update the Surface Drinking Water Protected Areas
A pilot bathymetric LiDAR survey was commissioned in 2021 which mapped the nearshore areas of Dundrum Bay and areas of Carlingford Lough./p> For the pilot bathymetric survey a Rapid Airborne Multi-bean Mapping System (RAMMS) operated at approximately 25000 range observations per second, while achieving 3-Secchi disk depth penetration. Where possible data was collected to depths of 10m, however, RAMMS is capable of capturing high resolution data to depths of three times the visual water clarity. This is the Digital Terrain Model created from the LiDAR dataset.

A polygon layer depicting the 1km squares within NI that contain one or more confirmed reports of pollution between 2011 and 2024. The purpose of the dataset is to assist with information searches on the NIEA Water Information Request viewer The layer is the product of a spatial join between the pollution incidents point layer (Pollution Incidents 2011 to 2024) and the NI 1km grid layer, which anonymises the data. The pollution incidents occur in and around NI watercourses 2011 - 2024. The attribute table contains information regarding pollution source, pollution category, pollution severity and year. The data was provided by WMU Emergency Pollution team, and taken from Pollution Incident Management System (PIMS) database. This dataset was compiled as part of the annual update of pollution incidents for the NIEA Water Information Request Viewer. It combines all previous versions of pollution incident datasets on the viewer.

The field probe has been deployed by NIEA’s Freshwater Monitoring and Assessment team as part of a long term, high frequency water quality monitoring project. It records Dissolved Oxygen (%Saturation) and temperature (°C) in the Maine River downstream of the M2 Bridge. Data is recorded every 30 minutes and loaded onto the public platform approximately every 30 days. Please note: Data is non-validated and should therefore be treated as provisional and may be subject to revisions. Many factors can affect the reliability of real time data, including environmental changes and sensor malfunction. Disclaimer - All materials and information are provided “AS IS”. Please seek and follow professional advice relating to Lough Neagh and its tributaries. Further details of the DAERA disclaimer can be found here. The probe has an optical DO sensor and a temperature sensor. The logger collects measurements of dissolved oxygen with an accuracy of +/- 5% and temperature to +/- 0.1 degrees C. Temperature range is 0 to 35 degrees C with an accuracy of +/- 0.1 degrees C. Oxygen range is 0 to 150% saturation. Maintenance: Probe maintenance and download occur monthly.

Network contribution area scores were exported from the SciMAP application outputs within SAGA GIS. The scores were based on inputs from CEH Land cover 2007, Met Office average rainfall and 5 meter DTM. The High contribution category boundary was determined by selecting +1 standard deviation of the distribution of the scores.
This table provides the raw data from river monitoring sites including Water Framework Directive monitoring sites. It should be noted that, as the data set is in its raw state, it cannot be used to provide a status without processing. The data set does not show Limits of Detection or Limit of Quantitation which would require a value to be treated as a half value for WFD calculation. In addition both altitude and alkalinity affect status calculations for some parameters. The data set may contain results which are erroneous due to typos, sampling error or contamination, such data points are usually several orders or magnitude above expected values. This is the first in a series of water data sets being made available as Open Data. Other data sets remain available on request via waterinfo@daera-ni.gov.uk The European Water Framework Directive (2000/60/EC) has been transposed into Northern Ireland regulations through The Water Environment (Water Framework Directive) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2017. The Water (Amendment) (Northern Ireland) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019 ensures that the Water Framework Directive (WFD) (as transposed) and the various supporting pieces of water legislation continue to operate here after 1 January 2021. The regulation encourage the active involvement of interested parties and the general public. The regulations set out the requirement to achieve 'Good Ecological Status' and 'Good Chemical Status' for all ground and surface waters (rivers, lakes, transitional waters, and coastal waters) within Northern Ireland. Surface waters are assessed according to the following criteria: Biological quality (fish, invertebrates, flora) Hydromorphological Physico-chemical properties like temperature, oxygenation and nutrient conditions. Chemical quality assessed against environmental quality standards for specific pollutants and priority substances. The following physio-chemical and chemical parameters are included in the data set: DO(mg/l) - Dissolved Oxygen
