Description: Provisional Agricultural Land Classification Grade. Agricultural land classified into five grades. Grade one is best quality and grade five is poorest quality. A number of consistent criteria used for assessment which include climate (temperature, rainfall, aspect, exposure, frost risk), site (gradient, micro-relief, flood risk) and soil (depth, structure, texture, chemicals, stoniness) for England only. Digitised from the published 1:250,000 map which was in turn compiled from the 1 inch to the mile maps. Attribution statement: ?? Natural England copyright. Contains Ordnance Survey data ??

Description: This dataset contains parcels of land designated as Registered Common Land under the Countryside and Rights of Way Act 2000. It does not replace the statutory registers of Common Land that are held and maintained by Local Authorities. As such it does not have any updates from Local Authorities since their maps were scanned and digitised back in 2000-2003 as part of the CRoW Act mapping process.

Name: EA Areas Susceptible to Ground Water Flooding
Display Field: floodtype
Type: Feature Layer
Geometry Type: esriGeometryPolygon
Description: Areas susceptible to groundwater flooding. This is a summarised dataset in 1km squares. It provides information on the groundwater geology and three classes for likelihood of flooding.
Description: Risk of Flooding from Rivers and the Sea (RoFRS) shows the chance of flooding from rivers and the sea taking into account the presence and condition of flood defences. It is our main way of communicating flood risk from rivers and sea to the public through our ‘Check Your Long Term Flood Risk’ service on gov.uk. While flood defences reduce the level of risk they do not completely remove it. For example, water can flow over the top of the defence, or they can fail in extreme weather conditions or if they are in poor condition. As a result, the RoFRS maps may show that there is risk to areas behind some flood defences. RoFRS is a probabilistic product, meaning that it shows the overall risk, rather than the risk associated with a specific event or scenario. This risk is displayed as one of four likelihood bandings: High - greater than or equal to 3.3% chance in any given year (1 in 30) Medium - less than 3.3% (1 in 30) but greater than or equal to 1% (1 in 100) chance in any given year Low - less than 1% (1 in 100) but greater than or equal to 0.1% (1 in 1,000) chance in any given year Very Low - less than 0.1% chance in any given year (1 in 1,000) This data also presents the likelihood of flooding for the following depths: 0.2m 0.3m 0.6m 0.9m 1.2m NB. This is a complex dataset, with preview available only on certain zoom levels.

Description: Risk of Flooding from Surface Water (RoFSW) map is an assessment of where surface water flooding may occur when rainwater does not drain away through the normal drainage systems or soak into the ground, but lies on or flows over the ground instead. It includes information about flooding extents and depths. It is produced using national scale modelling and enhanced with compatible, locally produced modelling from lead local flood authorities (LLFAs). RoFSW is a probabilistic product, meaning that it shows the overall risk, rather than the risk associated with a specific event or scenario. In externally published versions of this dataset, risk is displayed as one of three likelihood bandings: High - greater than or equal to 3.3% chance in any given year (1 in 30) Medium - less than 3.3% (1 in 30) but greater than or equal to 1% (1 in 100) chance in any given year Low - less than 1% (1 in 100) chance in any given year NB. This is a complex dataset, with preview available only on certain zoom levels.

Description: National Trails are long distance routes for walking, cycling and horse riding through the finest landscapes in England and Wales. This dataset contains both proposed and established National Trails.
Description: The OS NGD Water Features Collection contains both a Water Feature Type and Water Point Feature Type. Within the Water Feature Type, inland water is represented as polygons, whereas in Water Point Feature Type, inland water is represented as points. To be captured as a polygon, an area of permanent inland water generally has to have a minimum size of 8 sq m. Areas of permanent inland water below this minimum size but which OS consider to be of sufficient interest to be captured are captured as points.
