The Brecon Beacons National Park Authority and Natural Resources Wales have completed a joint project to ensure that the boundary of the National Park best represents the designated National Park boundary (including the variation order) produced in 1955 and 1966 respectively.

The original documents consisted of a written description and two 1 inch to 1 mile paper maps. Although these remain the legal documents, an accurate digital boundary was required to make sure that there is clarity on where the boundary line actually is in relation to the ground.

This dataset displays isolated danger beacons which are erected on isolated dangers of limited extent, and which have navigable water surrounding it. A beacon is a prominent specially constructed object forming a conspicuous mark as a fixed aid to navigation or for use in hydrographic survey (IHO Dictionary, S-32, 5th Edition, 420). An isolated danger beacon is a beacon erected on an isolated danger of limited extent, which has navigable water all around it (UKHO NP735, 5th Edition).

Aeronautical easements are intended to ensure the protection of an aerodrome against obstacles, so that aeroplanes can land and take off from it in good safety and regularity.Some obstacles must be equipped with visual or radio devices designed to report their presence to pilots.The T4 easement is affected by:- all aerodromes open to public air traffic,- restricted-use aerodromes created by the state,- under conditions fixed by regulation, certain restricted-use aerodromes created by a person other than the State.The generator of an easement of public utility is an aerodrome that is the object of the land, or the land under which the land is under control, or that is the consequence of the enerritious nature of the land. Only a new act of annulment or repeal by the competent authority may legally remove the effects of the easement(s) in question.

Search and Rescue Satellite Aided Tracking (SARSAT)A Beacon of Hope to Those in DistressNOAA satellites do more than just monitor the weather. They also detect and relay distress signals from emergency beacons to the appropriate search and rescue authorities. This tells them who is in trouble and, more importantly, where they are located.The NOAA–SARSAT program is part of COSPAS–SARSAT, an international satellite-based monitoring initiative to which 45 nations and independent search and rescue organizations belong. Using this system, authorities can locate beacons almost anywhere in the world at any time, and in almost any condition. COSPAS stands for "COsmicheskaya Sisteyama Poiska Avariynich Sudov," Russian for “Space System for the Search of Vessels in Distress.” A sailor being rescued at sea.SARSAT Tracking ApplicationEach icon on this map represents one rescue event within the U.S. Area of Responsibility (AOR) in 2022, though multiple saves may be involved with each event. The Search and Rescue Satellite Aided Tracking (SARSAT) system is able to detect three types of beacons: an individual’s Personal Locator Beacons (PLBs), maritime Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacons (EPIRBs), and aircraft Emergency Locator Transmitters (ELTs). Who responds to the search and rescue are dictated by the location of the distress. For any beacon activation that occurs in the U.S. AOR, the U.S. is responsible for responding. If it is inland, U.S. Air Force responds*, if it is at sea, the U.S. Coast Guard. If a device registered to another country is activated within the U.S. AOR, the U.S. is still responsible for the rescue but their homeport country will be notified of the event. All areas of the world are covered by COSPAS-SARSAT.The COSPAS–SARSAT ProgramThis program consists of: Emergency beacons that transmit distress signalsSatellites that detect the distress signalsGround receiving stations that receive and process the satellite signals to generate distress alertsMission control centers that receive the alerts and forward them to rescue coordination centers, operated by the U.S. Coast Guard and the U.S. Air Force.The U.S. SARSAT system uses NOAA satellites in low-earth and geostationary orbits as well as GPS satellites in medium earth orbit to detect and locate aviators, mariners, and land-based users in distress. The satellites relay distress signals from emergency beacons to a network of ground stations and ultimately to the U.S. Mission Control Center (USMCC) in Suitland, Maryland.Types of search and rescue beacons. The Four Agencies Involved in the U.S. SARSAT ProgramNOAA: System Operation and representative to COSPAS-SARSATNASA: Research and Development U.S. Coast Guard: Maritime Search and Rescue U.S. Air Force: Inland Search and Rescue HistoryCredit: Arizona Daily StarThe first beacons used the existing 121.5/243 MHz emergency locator transmitters (ELTs) designed for military aircraft in the 1950s. After a small plane carrying Rep. Hale Boggs (D-La.) along with Rep. Nick Begich (D-Alaska) and others disappeared in Alaska in 1972, Congress mandated ELTs on all U.S. aircraft. Canada soon did the same. However, early models were not as easy to detect, and there was no way to identify a specific beacon or find its exact location. Thus, engineers began developing new, more robust digital beacons that operated at 406 MHz. Signals from these new beacons could be received from anywhere on the planet, located accurately and almost instantly, and rescue forces would know who and what to look for.The United States and Canada began looking for other international partners with the ability to launch satellites to achieve a truly global distress alerting satellite system. Russia and France soon signed on to help develop the system for humanitarian purposes. On June 30, 1982, Russia launched the first experimental COSPAS–SARSAT satellite. Before it was even officially declared operational, the first distress signal was detected—a downed Canadian aircraft. Within the first hundred days of the satellite’s operation, seven people were rescued using the system. Soon after, NASA launched their own SARSAT payload on NOAA-8. The program has continued to grow ever since. Today, with newer, more advanced beacons and a global network of next generation satellites, COSPAS–SARSAT strives to keep improving its ability to take the “search” out of “search and rescue” and ultimately save lives.

An updated map of peat extent for Wales has been developed by the UK Centre for Ecology and Hydrology, with support from the British Geological Survey and Natural Resources Wales in support of the Glastir Monitoring & Evaluation Programme, commissioned by the Welsh Government. This map represents a considerable advance on previous attempts to map the deep peat resource of Wales and yields a significantly larger estimate than that based on the Soil Survey of England and Wales alone. This new map highlights the wide distribution of peatlands across much of Wales, with large areas of upland blanket bog in North east and North-central Wales (Migneint, Berwyn) and central Wales (Cambrian Mountains), as well as smaller areas of upland peat in and around the Brecon Beacons National Park. The new unified map also provides a much more detailed picture of the distribution of deep peat in the lowlands, many areas of which retain significant biodiversity interest. The Glastir Monitoring & Evaluation Programme was set up by the Welsh Government in 2013 to monitor the effects of the Glastir agri-environment scheme on the environment and ran from 2013 to 2016.
