The FC's Forester Recreation extension was rolled out to Forest Districts (FDs) in 2010. Since then FDs have been using this to record new recreation features, and those previously stored locally, to a common standard across GB. Since the creation of NRW in 2013, NRW have maintained the data in the Forester recreation module.
