| GA000747 | CCW Regional Data: North Wales | Cofnod (North Wales Environmental Information Service) | Description A collation of records derived from Countryside Council for Wales North Region paper files. Method This dataset was created from species records extracted, computerised and collated from paper records held at CCW's Regional office files. </br> The work was carried out by Cofnod Staff Members, between 2007 and 2010, as part of CCW's Data Mobilisation Project. Offices covered were Dolgellau, Bangor and Mold. </br> The material from which records were derived included the following: reports, site registers, recording cards, protected site condition assessments, Phase 1 and Phase 2 habitat surveys, other general survey work and records of casual observations. </br> Numerous biological recording techniques and survey methodologies were used in the collection of these records. </br> Some of the records were produced by CCW staff or by qualified contractors working on CCW's behalf whilst some records have been provided by third parties, or derived from documents, surveys or datasets produced by others, but held in CCW files. Wherever third party records could be readily and practically identified, they have been removed from this dataset (unless Cofnod has permission from the copyright holder to include them). Purpose Geographical Coverage Records are primarily for the CCW's North Region which includes the following Local Authority areas: Anglesey, Gwynedd, Conwy, Denbighshire, Flintshire and Wrexham. However there are some records for other areas. </br> Many records are for designated sites (including SSSIs, SACs, National Nature Reserves etc), however, there are also large numbers of records from the wider countryside. </br> The majority of the records have grid references of at least 100m accuracy (6 figure), however some of these may be derived from site centroids rather than refer to the actual location of the species.

Temporal Coverage Most records are from 1980 onwards but some are considerably older. Although the records are sourced from CCW's files, many pre-date the creation of that organisation in 1991. The dates are in a variety of formats as befits the various methods of data capture. Data Quality The majority of the records were originally created by CCW staff or qualified contractors. They have been entered onto computer by trained Cofnod staff using a custom Data Entry System which uses standard lists where possible to ensure consistent terminology. Randomised Quality Assurance checks have been carried out on the data. All records have been screened using a validation tool which checks that all records have valid dates, species names and grid references. These records will be subject to systematic verification by relevant local experts over time, and are labelled accordingly (within an additional Attribute field). Individual records have a default verification level of 'Unassessed' until they have been looked at by a Verifier, after which they may be re-labelled as 'Unconfirmed' or 'Considered Correct'. Records identified by Verifiers as 'Known/Probably Incorrect' will be removed from the NBN Gateway. Further details are given within relevant Cofnod policies. Data should be checked against original sources before use in contentious circumstances. Additional Information Additional information is available from Cofnod (<a href??http://www.cofnod.org.uk?>www.cofnod.org.uk</a>). |
