Summary

Riparian woodland in Scotland identified using a combination of existing open datasets. Search area is 20m either side of water courses. Includes coniferous and broadleaved woodland, native and non-native. Woodland datasets include Native Woodland Survey of Scotland, Smallwoods dataset from Forest Research, National Forest Inventory. Additional areas are included where these had been highlighted using height data and manually checked in aerial imagery. Minimum patch size is 2000m2.

Search area is 20m either side of water courses. Underlying water courses are combination of OS open rivers, Vector Map District, SEPA open rivers, Open Street Map water courses. All are line datasets apart from Vector Map District which is a polygon dataset. Therefore the width of wider rivers has been taken into account.
