Welcome to the Feature Activity Sensitivity Tool (FeAST). FeAST allows users to investigate the sensitivity of marine features in Scotland's seas, to pressures arising from human activities.
FeAST has been devised as a tool to be used in a variety of ways by anyone with an interest in potential impacts on marine features. It has been used to underpin assessments in Scotland’s Marine Assessment 2020, and for discussions on management requirements for Marine Protected Areas and Priority Marine Features.
The aim is that information on the sensitivity of all Scottish marine features of conservation importance will be incorporated into FeAST, with the evidence base updated periodically.
