This text is from the Catchment Based Approach website and it is interesting to note the range of material becoming available under the open access thinking.

– Surface water flooding

– NIRS category 3&4 (at water body scale)

– CAMS water resource status (Q50 and Q95)

– CSF activity map (record of businesses that have been contacted, not what has been done as this is confidential)

– 2014 WFD status (Cycle I) we will get Cycle II out shortly

– Water abstraction

– SgZs for surface and groundwater

If you would like this package of data, please get in touch with David Johnson.

(SAGIS). The plain English descriptions of each of the fields in the SAGIS data is now available HERE

If you identify any other data layers where you are not able to make full use of the data because you do not know what the attributes mean then please let David know either via the FORUM or email. Many thanks

The second data and GIS package is still available see here.

We will release a third set of data including animated time series data, showing how WFD classification data has changed with time. The new package will also include output from ADAS diffuse pollution models NEAP-N (nitrate) and PSYCHIC (phosphorus and sediment) both of which are part of the weight of evidence that can be used to identify the source of a problem and target mitigation measures.
