Dataset description

Shellfish samples collected at 163 coastal sites and analysed in the laboratory for biotoxins. Biotoxins sampled for include AZAs and DSPs. Harmful Algal Blooms (HABs) programme has collected shellfish samples from aquaculture sites located along the coastline of Ireland between Strangford Lough and Lough Foyle. Samples have been collected under this programme since 2002. Shellfish biotoxins determine whether an aquaculture site is open for production and in some cases is closed pending or closed due to adverse toxins in the shellfish. Shellfish samples have been collected by samplers and delivered to the Marine Institute laboratory for biotoxins analysis using ISO testing standards. The HABs programme has been a joint initiative between the Marine Institute (MI) and the Food Safety Authority of Ireland (FSAI). Data complete for all samples surveyed since 2002.

Yes. Selected APIs include a free API quota, so your team can validate coverage, freshness, response shape and workflow fit before asking for a production plan.
Often yes, but usage rights depend on the source license and dataset. We surface source, license and update metadata where available, and can help review terms before a production integration.
Maintained APIs include update metadata where available. For production integrations, we can add history, monitoring and push updates so changes are easier to detect and act on.
Production APIs can add SLA, stable identifiers, versioning support, history, push updates and direct support around the data your product or AI workflow depends on.
