Report of the Working Group on Marine Habitat Mapping (WGMHM)
The Working Group on Marine Habitat Mapping (WGMHM) has held three annual meetings in 2015–2017.The 2017 meeting was held at ICES HQ, Copenhagen, Denmark, 30 May to 1 June. Ten members attended the meeting from six countries. The first day of the meeting dealt with ToR A (International Mapping Programmes) and ToR B (National Mapping Pro-grammes). Based on recommendations from the 2015 and 2016 meetings, the reporting of national mapping progress is now undertaken using a templated form. The objective for this approach is to (i) standardise the reporting of mapping progress; (ii) allow country representatives not attending the meeting to still contribute to the working group; and (iii) encourage the submission of information to the GeoNetwork.
