MDE Heritage Accelerator: mobilising development-led information to achieve net zero
Status: Active
Start Date: November 2024

This project will improve access to marine heritage data which is gathered when offshore wind farms are developed to enable faster, informed decision making by regulators, developers and their advisors. By integrating data from the Marine Data Exchange (MDE) into Historic England’s National Marine Heritage Record, the project aims to enhance planning and strengthen heritage representation.
