Abstract
EUSeaMap was a two-year EU project funded by DG-MARE as part of the preparatory actions for the European Marine Observation Data Network (EMODNET). One of the project aims is to produce a broad scale habitat maps for the Baltic, the Celtic and the North Seas as well as the western Mediterranean basin. The project utilised the accumulated experience from previous initiatives (e.g. INTERREG projects MESH, BALANCE) and enhanced that with new modelling techniques and improved input layers. The existing marine landscape maps of BALANCE and the habitat map of the MESH projects were improved and seamlessly merged and extended to other marine regions such as the Mediterranean.
