This dataset provides an Integrated Habitat Network (IHN)
for native woodlands in Scotland.
Its purpose is to aid the scoring process when assessing
Forestry Grant Scheme (FGS) applications made under the SRDP programme.
It identifies three levels of information:-
core native woodlandsprimary zones that are within a 'least-cost distance' of 500msecondary zones that are within a 'least-cost distance' of
2,000m
These latter two zones represent the differing dispersal
abilities of generic woodland species across surrounding land which is not
source native woodland.

Scotland's SpatialData.gov.scot Metadata Portal.
