Welcome to the INFOMAR website

The INFOMAR programme is a joint venture between the Geological Survey of Ireland and the Marine Institute and is the successor to the Irish National Seabed Survey.  Covering some 125,000 km² of Irelands most productive and commercially valuable inshore waters, INFOMAR will produce integrated mapping products covering the physical, chemical and biological features of the seabed.

Initially INFOMAR will focus on 26 bays and 3 priority areas in it’s first phase, then moving on to complete those areas not covered by the first phase of INFOMAR or the INSS.
