Habitat map of the coastal waters of Cyprus in the Eastern Mediterranean Sea

The map consists of cells measuring 100x100 meters and provides the distribution of important marine habitats of conservation importance, such as Posidonia oceanica meadows (Habitats 1120), Cymodocea nodosa meadows (Habitats 1110), and reefs (Habitats 1170), in the coastal waters of Cyprus under the European Habitats Directive (92/43/EEC). The source of the data is the Department of Fisheries and Marine Research (DFMR), within the projects 'Mapping and evaluation of Posidonia meadows and other important marine habitats under the European Habitats Directive (92/43/EEC)’ (0-50 m, data created 09/2022 at 1:10000 scale), ‘Cyprus shelf seabed mapping’ (50-250 m, data created 04/2019 at 1:20000 scale) and ‘Mapping coralligenous formations and maerl beds using mb data’ (50-250 m, data created 10/2023 at 1:20000 scale)

Statement

The data, which represent the distribution of important marine habitats in the coastal waters of Cyprus, have been standardized following EMODnet guidelines to make them INSPIRE compliant. In particular, the fields 'HAB_TYPE,' 'COMP,' and 'COMP_TYPE' in the updated attribute table of the map provide useful information through which it is possible to link the cells duplicated for compliance purposes in the layer hosted in EMODnet with those of the original data. For more information, refer to: https://emodnet.ec.europa.eu/sites/emodnet.ec.europa.eu/files/public/Seabed%20Habitats/EMODnet_Guide_for_submitting_seabed_habitat_maps_V3.pdf Original data can be found in the geoportal (Map Viewers -> Thematic Maps -> Hydrographic Data) https://eservices.dls.moi.gov.cy/#/national/geoportalmapviewer
