North West Regional Monitoring Programme - Phase 1 Habitats
North West Regional Monitoring Programme, funded by the Environment Agency (EA), was set up in 2008 to provide a coordinated, risk based, monitoring system for the collection and analysis of coastal data to inform sustainable coastal defence management. This project was commissioned to map priority Biodiversity Action Plan habitat extents for the North West Region to inform the program and statutory bodies of coastal habitat change. It is intended that this in turn will inform action plans and strategies for coastal management.
This project was commissioned to map the extent of all coastal and terrestrial Priority and supporting habitats within the north west coastal region by analysis of aerial imagery.
The principal objectives of the mapping project are to provide Priority BAP extent data for:
- Establishing baseline datasets for the North West where they are missing or inadequate
- Identification and quantification of regional coastal change
- Assessing losses and gains for the Regional Habitat Creation Programme
- Identification and strategic consideration of coastal flood and erosion risks
- Assisting development of BAPs
- Providing contextual information to support AAs for SMPs, Flood and Coastal Defence Strategies and Flood and Coastal Defence schemes

This habitat map was created as part of a project which aimed to map the extent of all coastal and terrestrial priority and supporting habitats within the north west coastal region by analysis of aerial imagery including LiDAR DTM and DSM elevation data captured between 2012-2013. This survey focussed on the North Western English coastline from Solway Firth to The River Dee, including all major estuaries. The survey identified the habitats within this region and categorised them using the Integrated Habitat System classification type.
This map was then formatted by JNCC to meet the Data Exchange Format v4.1 required for EMODnet uploads and translated to EUNIS 2007 in August 2023.
