Catchment areas

1

If I wanted to create a searchable overlay to divide Ireland up into a number of named catchment areas how would I go about doing that?

First, you have to define your catchment areas, with josm for example. Then you can use OpenLayers and javascript tools (like jquery) for selecting one of this areas. I've one example here, where you can select a municipality by clicking on it or by selecting one in a dropdown menu.
