Phase 2 Lowland Heathland Survey: Pembrokeshire 1995
Dataset containing detailed Phase 2 plant community data for lowland heathlands in Wales. One of the major strategic initiatives of Countryside Council for Wales (CCW). The aim of the survey was to characterise the lowland heathland vegetation of around Pembrokeshire. Utilised standard Phase 2 survey methodology. Vegetation mapping and community definition followed the National Vegetation Classification (NVC).

This was one of a series of major Phase 2 habitat surveys, including CCW in-house and commissioned surveys covering woodland, lowland grassland, saltmarsh and lowland peatland. The dataset has been extensively validated and verified however problems were encountered when mapping in field which may have resulted in errors, digitisation was of poor quality and there were occasional problems with identifying community type. The paper maps in the reports are of better quality than the GIS layer and therefore should be referred to as a more accurate source of information. Age of the data is also a limitation as habitat composition may change over time, a record of a vegetation type in the data is therefore no guarantee that it is still extant on the ground.
