EUNIS vegetated man-made habitat types, distribution based on vegetation plot data - version 1, Nov. 2021

  • English

This metadata corresponds to the EUNIS Vegetated man-made habitats types, distribution based on vegetation plot data dataset.



Anthropogenic habitats which are dominated by vegetation and usually subject to regular management but also arising from recent abandonment of previously cultivated ground. This includes areas cultivated for crops, orchards and grasslands such as lawns and sports fields which are a result of reseeding and often heavily fertilised together with planted and managed forests and other anthropogenic habitats with trees such as avenues. Non vegetated anthropogenic habitats are Constructed, industrial and other artificial habitats (Y).



The verified vegetated man-made habitat samples used are derived from the Braun-Blanquet database ( http://www.sci.muni.cz/botany/vegsci/braun_blanquet.php?lang=en) which is a centralised database of vegetation plots and comprises copies of national and regional databases using a unified taxonomic reference database. The geographic extent of the distribution data are all European countries except Armenia and Azerbaijan. The dataset is provided both in Geodatabase and Geopackage formats.

Statement

The database compiled for the Braun-Blanquet project comprises various national and regional vegetation databases. The maintenance of these databases is in principle in the hands of the custodians. However, before uploading datasets into the Braun-Blanquet database a quality check is performed by WENR and Masaryk University. If possible, detected errors are corrected and reported back to the data provider. Attributes added to the distribution data are: YEAR (year of recording) and PRECISION (precision in meters, indicating how precise the location is indicated).

Supporting information on the methodology used to create the maps is provided with the dataset.
