<p>The Peatlands of Wales map series provides an updated distribution of Welsh Peatlands (to 2022) based on current evidence sources. The data layers were created on a 50m grid whereby the presence and thickness of peat are elucidated from a range of sources for each 50m grid cell across Wales. A peatland evidence score defines the level of confidence in the presence of peat in any given grid cell, with those cells scoring more than 2 on this scale of 1-10, captured in the ‘Peatlands of Wales’ peat distribution map.</p>
<p>This dataset shows the peatland evidence score for all 50m sites with a peatland value of 1 or greater. These scores, ranging from 2 to 10 in this map, indicate the confidence in peat being present at a given location, based on the quality of available evidence. Full details of the data sources, and their combined ranking, used to produce this peatland evidence index are provided in the <a href="https://gov.wales/soils-policy-evidence-programme" target="_blank" rel="noopener">report on the methodology</a> used to derive this suite of peatland data maps </p>
