The geodatabase on aggregate extractions in the EU was created in 2014 by AZTI-Tecnalia for the European Marine Observation and Data Network (EMODnet). It is the result of the aggregation and harmonization of datasets provided by several sources from all across the EU. It is available for viewing and download on EMODnet - Human Activities web portal (www.emodnet-humanactivities.eu). The database contains points representing aggregate extraction sites, by year (although some data are indicated by a period of years), in the following countries: Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Poland, Spain, Sweden, The Netherlands and United Kingdom. Where available, each point has the following attributes: Id (Identifier), Position Info (e.g.: Estimated, Original, Polygon centroid of dredging area, Estimated polygon centroid of dredging area), Country, Sea basin, Name of the extraction area, Area of activity (km2), Year (the year when the extraction took place), Permitted Amount (m3) (permitted amount of material to be extracted, in m3), Permitted Amount (t) (permitted amount of material to be extracted, in tonnes), Requested Amount (m3) (requested amount of material to be extracted, in m3), Requested Amount (t) (requested amount of material to be extracted, in tonnes), Extracted Amount (m3) (extracted amount of material, in m3), Extracted Amount (t) (extracted amount of material, in tonnes), Extraction Type (Marine sediment extraction), Purpose (e.g.: Commercial, Others, N/A), End Use (e.g.: Beach nourishment, Construction, Reclamation fill, N/A), Material type (e.g.: sand, gravel, maerl), Notes, Link to Web Sources.

In the context of the preparation of the Situation Plan for Maritime Spatial Planning for the Madeira subdivision (PSOEM - Madeira), it was definded a existentel area dredged immersion, which represents the future spatial distribution of this activity. The atribution of a title for a private use of maritime space for this area is dependent on the approval of the proposed Plan. In the island of Madeira there is a specific area for dredging deposition, located in the South ofthe port o Funchal.

In the context of the preparation of the Situation Plan for Maritime Spatial Planning for the Madeira subdivision (PSOEM - Madeira), it was definded potential area for extraction and dredging of aggregates, which represents the future spatial distribution of this activity. The atribution of a title for a private use of maritime space for this area is dependent on the approval of the proposed Plan. The delimitation of these areas comes from the necessity to regulate the economic use of the territorial sea of the Region and, at the same time, create an indispensable discipline to guarantee the sustainable management of the existing water resources in a context of economic stability and sustainable development of the sectors of activity.

In the context of the preparation of the Situation Plan for Maritime Spatial Planning for the Madeira subdivision (PSOEM - Madeira), it was definded a existing proposed area for port infrastructures, which represents the future spatial distribution of this activity. The Madeira Autonomous Region is endowed with several port infrastructures: 3 main ports (Funchal, Caniçal and Porto Santo), 4 secondary terminals (Socorridos, Porto Novo and Porto Santo), by marinas and recreational ports as well as other secondary infrastructures, which provide adequate access to the sea.

In the context of the preparation of the Situation Plan for Maritime Spatial Planning for the Madeira subdivision (PSOEM - Madeira), it was definded a potential aquaculture area, which represents the future spatial distribution of this activity. The atribution of a title for a private use of maritime space for this area is dependent on the approval of the proposed Plan. The delimitation of these areas was based on the Management Plan for Marine Aquaculture of the RAM (POAMAR). Aquaculture areas, known as the Aquaculture Interest Zone (ZIA), are located at South of the island of Madeira.

In the context of the preparation of the Situation Plan for Maritime Spatial Planning for the Madeira subdivision (PSOEM - Madeira), it was definded a existing sinking of ships and other structures, which represents the future spatial distribution of this use. The atribution of a title for a private use of maritime space for this area is dependent on the approval of the proposed Plan. It is possible to find this use along the Southern coast of the island of Madeira and Porto Santo, where the ripples are weaker.

In the context of the preparation of the Situation Plan for Maritime Spatial Planning for the Madeira subdivision (PSOEM - Madeira), it was definded a existing proposed area for submarine emissaries, which represents the future spatial distribution of this activity. The atribution of a title for a private use of maritime space for this area is dependent on the approval of the proposed Plan. There are currently about four submarine emissaries:submarine emissaries of Câmara de Lobos, submarine emissaries Funchal, submarine emissaries of Caniço, submarine emissaries Santa Cruz.
