Indicative feature condition assessments and reasons for failure for Marine Special Areas of Conservation (SAC) habitats in Wales.

This is a spatial dataset detailing the location of Special Area of Conservation (SAC) habitat features, their condition and reasons for failure where applicable.

Identifier: NRW_DS124861

Alternative Title

Marine Special Area of Conservation Reasons for Unfavourable Condition - Habitats
Marine Special Area of Conservation Feature Condition - Habitats

Metadata Language: English

Lineage: The information was created in GIS using information from Natural Resources Wales’ Indicative condition assessments and Article 17 habitats. Indicative condition assessments: Definition and use: The term ‘indicative condition assessment’ describes the use of readily available evidence and expert judgement in an intensive, collective workshop process to provide an indication of feature condition at the site level. The confidence rating associated with the assessments is an integral part of the indicative assessment. Confidence levels for feature assessments should therefore always be quoted alongside the indicative condition result, together with NRW’s definition of ‘indicative condition assessment’.
