Areas of Identified Tidal Stream Resource defining boundary of policy TIDE1 in the East Inshore and East Offshore marine plans

The dataset sets out areas of identified tidal stream resource that could be harnessed in the future for power generation and as such are protected by policy TIDE1 in the East Inshore and East Offshore marine plans. The areas have been identified using the same parameters that defined The Crown Estates Wave and Tidal Key Resource Areas work but are limited to the East inshore and East offshore marine plan areas. The MMO used UKHO bathymetry data filtered to sites of 5m depth and over and the Atlas of UK Renewable Energy Resource with mean spring peak current fitlered to over 1.5metres per second.本数据集收录了未来可开发用于发电的已探明潮流能资源区域，此类区域已依据《东部近岸与东部远海海洋规划》中的TIDE1政策获得保护。该类区域的识别采用了与英国王室地产（Crown Estate）海浪与潮流关键资源区域研究中界定资源区域所用的参数一致的标准，但研究范围仅限东部近岸与东部远海海洋规划覆盖区域。本次研究中，英国海洋管理组织（Marine Management Organisation，MMO）使用了经筛选的英国水文局（United Kingdom Hydrographic Office，UKHO）水深测量数据，筛选条件为水深≥5米；同时采用了《英国可再生能源资源图集（Atlas of UK Renewable Energy Resource）》中的数据，其筛选条件为平均春汛峰值流速≥1.5米/秒。
