Lineage
The GIS boundary data have been collated at JNCC from data supplied by the following organisations:
-Scottish Natural Heritage www.snh.gov.uk
-Natural Resources Wales www.ccw.gov.uk
-Natural England www.naturalengland.org.uk
-Department of Environment, Northern Ireland.
Whenever there is a change to the submitted information (e.g. the addition of a new candidate SAC or an extension to an SPA), the UK Government is required to update the GIS digitised boundary information. The area estimates (i.e. hectarages) shown on the official site documentation (e.g. Natura2000 standard data forms) have been derived from these digitised datasets, and should therefore also match up. In the case of Natura 2000 sites the version available from this website is an exact copy of the dataset sent to the EU. The Official dataset will only be updated on the JNCC website following new submissions of SACs, SPAs or Ramsar sites to the international authority (the EU or Ramsar Secretariat). JNCC will re-publish the dataset in its entirety within ten working days of the official submission.
