Abstract

Woodland Creation forms part of the Scottish Rural Development Programme (SRDP) 2007 - 2013. The SRDP is a programme of economic, environmental and social measures, utilising some €680m of European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development funding plus Scottish Government match funding. The current programme is designed to support rural Scotland from 2007 to 2013. Individuals and groups may seek funding to help deliver the Government's strategic objectives in rural Scotland. Woodlands are a vital sustainable natural resource and funding aims to encourage the creation of new woodlands with grants that will contribute to the cost of their establishment. Within Rural Priorities there are eight woodland creation options. Productive conifer woodland (low cost) Productive conifer woodland (high cost) Productive broadleaved woodland Native Woodlands Naturally regenerated native woodland Mixed conifer/broadleaf woodland Northern & Western Isles Native Woodland Central Scotland Mixed Woodland The woodland creation boundary polygons in this dataset represent the total area covered by a single application and may encompass several different planting options and claim years. More details on specific options within a case can be found in the Woodland Creation Options - RDC dataset. Dataset Attributes: CASE_NO : SRDP RDC-RP Case Reference Number RPAC : Name of the RPAC Region (Regional Proposal Assessment Committee) ORGANISTN : Name of organisation responsible for administrating the case CASE_OFFICR : Name of Case Officer responsible for the case TOTAL_AREA : Total area approved for the case (hectares)

Lineage

This dataset is maintained by FCS Geo-Information Services. The data capture is based on OS maps supplied by applicants for Woodland Creation funding. Maps from approved RDC-RP contracts are scanned and uploaded into the SRDP system. The scans are geo-rectified and digitised by Geo-Information Services. Geo-Information Services interpret the woodland creation model boundaries using RPID field boundaries, Ordnance Survey MasterMap, aerial photography and other relevant datasets where required (e.g. previous grant scheme data). ****PLEASE NOTE***** This dataset is currently 95% complete in terms of the number of approved cases captured
