A polygon layer showing the boundary of vegetated shingle sites. A GIS layer was generated in 2012 from paper maps from the 1993 JNCC report by Sneddon and Randall. The purpose of this data capture is to generate an electronic version of the data and make it easily available for reporting purposes. The surveys focused on the vegetation of stony banks and did not attempt to map strandline communities; therefore the site boundary is not a true representation of the extent of the Shingle Ridge.

| Abstract | The abstract provides a clear and brief statement of the content of the resource. | A polygon layer showing the boundary of vegetated shingle sites. A GIS layer was generated in 2012 from paper maps from the 1993 JNCC report by Sneddon and Randall. The purpose of this data capture is to generate an electronic version of the data and make it easily available for reporting purposes.

| Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | Mapping was conducted in Wales between May and June 1989. Digitisation of the data was carried out between June and August 2012. A Site boundary layer was created by amalgamating all habitat polygons for each individual site. All areas were calculated from the GIS. Habitat and boundary maps were digitised to NRW National Vegetation Classification (NVC) data standards. Many of the sites have changed since the paper maps were first produced. No attempt has been made to re-map the habitats to take account of temporal changes. All data was validated against the original map and topologically cleaned. |
