Title
Water Framework Directive (WFD) Operational Catchments Cycle 3 2022
Abstract
<p>WFD Operational Catchments&rsquo; is a polygon Shapefile dataset collated as defined for the implementation of the Water Framework Directive (WFD).&nbsp; Operational catchments are the unit of geography that group river water bodies into smaller sub-catchments.&nbsp;</p> <p>These units support the management and understanding of the river network at a local scale.</p> <p>WFD Operational Catchments have been delineated by using WFD River Waterbody Catchments [these were delineated through use of flow data and a digital terrain model run through a hydrological model] as &ldquo;building blocks&rdquo; that have been aggregated together within a GIS, ensuring that WFD rivers do not intersect boundaries.&nbsp; This process was conducted by using expert judgement in consultation.</p> <p><strong>Attribution statement:</strong></p> <p>Contains Natural Resources Wales information &copy; Natural Resources Wales and Database Right.
