Summary

This dataset contains the boundaries for river catchments in Scotland based on the dataset Hydrological sections for England, Scotland and Wales with associated river catchment 2023, Water Framework Directive (WFD) waterbody and regional information (WGS84)_ These catchment boundaries have been derived from hydrological sections, have boundaries almost identical to existing Fish Health Inspectorate river catchments, and include complete coverage of the waterbodies under the Water Framework Directive.

Note this dataset only includes catchments in Scotland. England and Wales are represented as a single area. For complete coverage of England, Scotland and Wales use Catchment boundaries for England, Scotland and Wales based on existing Fish Health Inspectorate (FHI) and SEPA catchments (WGS84) 2023_

There are 2 versions of the dataset; this one a geographical coordinate reference system (CRS) WGS84 (EPSG 4326) and one projected to CRS British National Grid (BNG - EPSG 27700) see Catchment boundaries for Scotland based on Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA) catchments British National Grid (BNG) 2023_
