| Telecommunication Cables (KIS-ORCA) (hidden when zoomed in past 1:25,000) - July 2019 |
The Kingfisher Information Service - Offshore Renewable & Cable Awareness project (KIS-ORCA) is a joint initiative between the European Subsea Cables Association (ESCA), Renewable UK and the Kingfisher Information Service of Seafish. KIS-ORCA commenced on 01 January 2012 and supersedes the successful KIS-CA project. KIS-ORCA now includes subsea cables (power and telecommunications) surrounding the UK and, for the first time, UK offshore renewable energy structures, in the form of constructed offshore wind farms. This layer shows routes of seabed cables for telecommunications and is as zoom restricted. See http://www.kis-orca.eu for further details. |
