The Data Hub provides tools to access the underlying data utilised in VALMER. The data can be integrated into web and desktop mapping tools, or viewed through the WebGIS.
VALMER was conceived, and awarded funding, in parallel with the PANACHE project (Protected Area Network Across the CHannel Ecosystem). The two projects share several partners, including AAMP who are leading on PANACHE, and are combining resources wherever possible. PANACHE aims to provide better protection of the Channel marine environment through the networking of existing marine protected areas.
Its objectives are:
VALMER and PANACHE present complementary objectives that should lead to a better understanding of the Channel marine ecosystem, and to its more sustainable use of the ecosystem services it provides.
