Quality and validity

Lineage

Protected Wreck records were extracted from the 'Maritime Designations' parent sub layer which took its data from from NMR, RCAHMS, and DOENI heritage agencies. These records are generally updated on a regular basis, due to the need for consultation and protection priorities associated with sites. Information on the extent of exclusion zones was taken from the MCA website, which is also updated regualrly, due to it's frequent use for shipping activity. Therefore, the Protected Wrecks layer is one of the most straight forward. There may be slight offset in positional accuracy as a result of the datum transformation process.
