Woody landscape and habitat features from the Environment and Rural Affairs Monitoring & Modelling Programme, Wales, 2021-2023

This dataset consists of records of woody landscape area, linear and point features such as areas of woody habitat, hedges, and trees and associated attributes from sites across Wales, collected as part of the Environment and Rural Affairs Monitoring & Modelling Programme (ERAMMP) National Field Survey (NFS) between 2021-2023. Data include areas or lengths of features, with associated land use, species and condition measures where applicable. ERAMMP NFS is a resurvey of all of the 300 locations from the initial Glastir Monitoring and Evaluation Programme (GMEP) monitoring program (300 1km squares) on a rolling annual basis, with the aim to resurvey all sites between 2021 and 2025. Between 2021-2023 ERAMMP National Field Survey resurveyed 225 of those 300 for woody landscape features. The initial monitoring program, GMEP, was set up by the Welsh Government in 2013 to report national trends and monitor the effects of the Glastir agri-environment scheme on the environment and ran from 2013 to 2016. The field survey element was based on a stratified random sampling design of 300 x 1km square sites across Wales, and was managed by the UK Centre for Ecology & Hydrology.

Statement

The data were recorded using electronic data capture devices in the summers of 2021-2023 by professional surveyors. Data were recorded from 225 x 1km squares sited across Wales, selected by random stratified sample. The survey was managed by the UK Centre for Ecology & Hydrology. Standardised methodologies were applied throughout. To ensure confidentiality of the data with respect to land owners and managers, the locations of 1km squares and survey sites were converted to the centres of the containing 10km Ordnance Survey grid squares.
