  • Modelled distribution of marine biotopes in Astafjord, Sør-Troms.

  • Biotopes are areas with distinctive benthic communities and a similar physical environment. Each biotope usually has a unique composition of species. The species are determined by the environmental conditions in the area. Four areas have so far been mapped and modeled separately: the Barents Sea (MAREANO-mapped areas), TromsIII / NordlandVII, NordlandVI and the Central Norwegian shelf. The goal is to harmonize these datasets and create a comprehensive biotope map for Norwegian sea areas.

  • This data set contains the seabed sediments on the upper part of the bottom of the sea (upper 0-50 cm of the seabed), classified after genesis. The data set covers coastal areas in mapped areas in detailed scale. Detailing level vary between data from different mapping projects.

  • This dataset contains the grain size composition of seabed sediments upper part (top 0-50 cm of the seabed). The attribute table for the data set provides information on the different grain size classes and which term is used, based on the content of different grain sizes in sediments. Based on information about grain size distribution, other topics can be further developed, such as sedimentation environment, bottom stream data, information on hard and soft bottoms, etc.

  • The map service presents a number of thematic layers derived from detailed basis information about the seabed: depth and sediment composition. The following themes are visualized: Bathymetry (terrain), Slope, Anchoring, Diggability, Accumulation basins and Habitats.
