This dataset provides gridded distribution data for Harbour seal (Phoca vitulina) and Grey seal (Halichoerus grypus) in Irish coastal and marine waters, based on the EEA 10km grid. The data were derived from National Parks and Wildlife Service cetacean surveys conducted within the Irish Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD) area. It shows current known seal distribution around the Irish coast and is published via data.gov.ie, Ireland's national open data portal, maintained by the National Parks and Wildlife Service as part of Ireland's marine biodiversity monitoring.mmetThese grid data were derived from National Parks and Wildlife Service cetacean surveys within the Irish MSFD area and the EEA-10km GRID.
