Map of wooded riparian zones in Great Britain

This dataset provides a 1km resolution raster (gridded) coverage of wooded areas in riparian zones (river- or streamsides) across Great Britain. The areas classified as riparian in this dataset are defined by a 50 metre buffer applied to the CEH 1:50000 watercourse network. Wooded areas within this zone are identified as those classified by the Land Cover Map of Great Britain 2007 as either coniferous or deciduous woodland. The data are aggregated to a 1km resolution. Full details about this dataset can be found at https://doi.org/10.5285/ec3ed342-5dc3-448f-baaa-c3b77bff1065
