- What we look at
Based on your selected location, we identify the 10 x 10 km coastal area it belongs to. This defines the area we analyse and ensures the results reflect local conditions at your site.
- What we use
We combine trusted global ecosystem datasets1 with regional monitoring data and scientific studies2. This ensures a reliable baseline, enriched with locally observed information.
- What you get
The report first provides national context, then zooms in on your specific location. It only includes habitats which are present locally based on the opensource data and highlights opportunities for protection or restoration.
