The Marine Conservation Zone Project (MCZ Project) is a partnership project seeking public input to help identify potential Marine Conservation Zones.
MCZ Project will work with people who use the sea for their livelihood or leisure to identify potential new Marine Conservation Zones. It wants sea lovers to get involved with a new interactive marine map by uploading details of which areas of sea they like to use and marine species, habitats and undersea landscapes they have seen there.
Go to www.mczmapping.org to upload information about your marine activities, and the location of marine wildlife, notable habitats and geological features you have seen. Or just look at the layers of data out of personal interest to discover more about your region’s sea.
The information shared will be used by representatives involved in these projects to plan the Zones.
The deadline for uploading data is 30 September 2010.
