Missing harbours for Ireland

yreecht commented 5 years ago

Hi Niels,

Here are some missing (I believe) harbours around Ireland. These are mostly small piers / mooring zones, that can be pretty close to inshore fishing grounds, which explains the smaller range chosen. It would have little implication for vessels over 12m but a lot more for high frequency inshore VMS-like data (mostly <12m).

The code below also features a few corrections of positions for more important harbours.

data(euharbours); if(substr(R.Version()$os,1,3)== "lin") data(harbours)

## Misplaced harbour:
harbours["Howth", c("lon", "lat")] <- c(-6.066945, 53.39278)
harbours["GALWAY", c("lon", "lat")] <- c(-9.051624, 53.268872)
harbours["ROSSLARE", c("lon", "lat")] <- c(-6.350243, 52.252595)

## Missing harbour(s):
harboursSup <- rbind(data.frame(harbour="Dundalk", lon=-6.389317, lat=54.009015, range=0.5),

Update also with ICES areas

@roimartins: Update europa shape

nielshintzen commented 3 years ago

@neilcampbelll to request info from WGSFD on harbour lists. @nielshintzen to add missing NLD harbours

colinpmillar commented 3 years ago

For the ices areas, I will

[ ] update the package data with a low-ish resolution version of the ices areas.
[ ] add code in the examples of how to access the ices webservices to download higher precision ices areas shapes
