Abstract
This dataset contains Priority Habitat Surveys of individual sites (not Wales-wide coverage), focusing on terrestrial habitats listed under Section 7 of the Environment (Wales) Act 2016, known as Priority Habitats. It consists of detailed surveys of plant communities in mixed habitat context at a coarser scale than Phase 2 (National Vegetation Classification) habitat surveys.This dataset is not to be confused with layer files derived from the ‘Environment (Wales) Act Section 7 Terrestrial Habitats of Principal Importance’ dataset, which is largely based on the Phase 1 Terrestrial Habitat Survey (1987-1997) and Phase 2 NVC surveys.Habitat composition may change over time, for example due to successional trends, land management or even planned developments. A record of a vegetation type or species in the digital data is therefore no guarantee of it still being extant on the ground. Individual site reports for most sites surveyed are also available upon request. Attribution Statement: Contains Natural Resources Wales information © Natural Resources Wales and Database Right.
