Statement

Initial dataset received from Ross Gardiner at Fisheries Research Services (FRS) in January 2008. The dataset has undergone some error checking and correction with help from FRS which became Scottish Government Marine Scotland Science (SG MSS) in April 2009. Additional information on obstructions was provided to SEPA by the Fisheries Trusts and Boards between January and March 2009. Workshops with participants from SEPA and Fisheries Trusts were held in late 2010 and early 2011 to correct and add to the dataset. The dataset is updated on an on-going basis by SEPA with information collected by SEPA staff or information collected by third parties and validated by SEPA fisheries ecologists.

The initial barriers were created during the update in 2007 of the 1986 Salmon map transferring salmon distribution information to GIS format on the 1:50000 DRN. More detail about the initial data is available in the NASCO report at http://www.nasco.int/pdf/far_habitat/HabitatFAR_Scotland.pdf and Figure 2. Map showing the estimated distribution of salmon in Scotland, based on a 2007 update of the original Map of the Distribution in Scottish Rivers of the Atlantic Salmon, Salmo salarL. (Gardiner and Egglishaw, 1986).
