We’ve had a few queries on the new HNV viewer.
Here’s a short video explaining how to use the viewer.
Technical details can be found in our Journal of Maps article.
One of the outputs of the HNV project was creating a national HNV indicator map for Ireland.
This digital map is now on line, on the Teagasc map viewer.
The map is shows the likelihood of finding HNV farmland in an ED, with 5 being almost certain to find HNV and 1 being almost certain not to find HNV.
Technical details can be found on the map construction are published in the Journal of Maps:

Some of the satellite mapping within the IdealHNV project was presented at the Irish Earth Observation Symposium in Galway last Month. The presentation can be found here: SMartin_IEOS15_Day1_Ses1.pptx.
Land Use and Land Mobility is a complementary driver of future productivity growth in Irish Agriculture. . At this workshop a report prepared by Teagasc on Agronomic, Economic and Policy Drivers of land Use Change will be launched. An outline of the programme is as follows:
