Working with Natural Processes (WWNP) in Wales: Floodplain Woodland Planting Potential
Potensial Plannu Coetiroedd ar Orlifdir WWN - Cymru

  • English

  • All

Working with Natural Processes (WWNP) Floodplain Woodland Planting Potential is our best estimate of locations where tree planting on the floodplain may be possible, and effective to attenuate flooding.


The dataset is designed to support signposting of areas of floodplain not already wooded. Natural Resources Wales (NRW) also has access to some Environment Agency data which we are licenced to have as part of our data exchange agreement.

Gweithio gyda Potensial Plannu Coetir ar Orlifdir Prosesau Naturiol (WWNP) yw ein hamcangyfrif gorau o leoliadau lle gall plannu coed ar y gorlifdir fod yn bosibl, ac yn effeithiol i wanhau llifogydd. Mae'r set ddata wedi'i chynllunio i ddangos ardaloedd o orlifdir nad ydynt eisoes yn goediog.


Mae'r wybodaeth a ddarperir yn seiliedig yn bennaf ar ddata wedi'i fodelu a data cyfyngiadau agored, ac felly mae'n ddangosol yn hytrach na phenodol. Efallai bod gwaith adeiladu neu ddefnydd tir mwy diweddar yn y lleoliadau a nodwyd nag sy'n cael ei nodi yn y data sydd ar gael. Mae'n bwysig nodi nad yw perchnogaeth tir a newid i berygl llifogydd wedi cael eu hystyried, ac efallai y bydd angen modelu effeithiau unrhyw blannu sylweddol.

The dataset is based upon fluvial Flood Zone 2 of the Flood Map for Planning. A set of open access constraints data was used to erase areas which contained existing woodland, watercourses, peat, roads, rail and urban locations. The information provided is largely based on modelled data and open constraints data, and is therefore indicative rather than specific. Locations identified may have more recent building or land use than available data indicates.


It is important to note that land ownership and change to flood risk have not been considered, and it may be necessary to model the impacts of significant planting. Further information on the Working with Natural Processes project, including a mapping user guide, can be found in the reports published here: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/working-with-natural-processes-to-reduce-flood-risk . JBA Consulting carried out the contract.
