The Welsh Government commisioned a study by ABPmer, to assess the potential for aquaculture within the Welsh Marine Plan Area through development of a spatial model. These data layers represent areas which were identified as potentially suitable for the cultivation of certain species, based solely on their ecological requirements and the natural resource requirements of the cultivation method, prior to any constraints associated with other marine sector activities or infrastructure being taken into consideration.
