National Parks are run by National Park Authorities for the purpose of conserving and enhancing the natural beauty, wildlife and cultural heritage and to provide opportunities for the understanding and enjoyment of the Park by the public. Alterations: Yorkshire Dales and Lake District National Park (Designation) boundaries modified 1st August 2016. South Downs National Park (Designation) modified on 2nd June 2010.Full metadata can be viewed on data.gov.uk.

The Lake District National Park was designated in 1951 and extended on 1 August 2016. The designation boundary has been interpreted by the Lake District National Park Authority from the 1951 written description and two 1 inch to 1 mile paper maps. The extension areas (south and east of the Park) have been interpreted from the 2016 written description and 1:25,000 mapping provided by Natural England.

The Digital Public Rights of Way (PROW) layer shows registered rights of way managed by the Lake District National Park Authority.

This layer details the positions of rights of way recorded on the Definitive Map of Public Rights of Way for Cumbria that fall within the National Park. There are over 3,200 miles of public rights of way in the Lake District. They are a great resource to help you exercise, relax or enjoy the outstanding quality of the Lakeland countryside, towns and villages. The data contains routes which can be used by walkers (public footpaths, bridleways and byways) and horse riders and cyclists (public bridleways and byways). You can use the data to plan your countryside visit, discover information about public rights of way in your locality and report problems with the rights of way network to the National Park Authority.

The rights of way information shown in this layer are provided for information only and must not be relied on for legal, statutory or any other formal purposes. The data was originally derived from the paper sources that comprise the Definitive Map and Statement for Cumbria. If a way is not registered on the Definitive Map, it does not prove that public rights do not exist. The legal record of rights of way, known as the Definitive Map and Statement, can be viewed by appointment with the Rights of Way Mapping section at Cumbria County Council. In addition, the digital data is also being checked to ensure its accuracy, leading to continuous amendments being made.

The Lake District National Park Authority is not responsible for Rights of Way within the towns of Bowness, Keswick or Ambleside; and as such these areas are not published in this dataset. Cumbria County Council currently owns and manages these routes.

The English Lake District World Heritage Site boundary, as designated at the 41st UNESCO Committee Convention on 12 July 2017. The boundary reflects the original 1951 Lake District National Park boundary, a self-contained mountainous area in North West England of some 2,292 square kilometres.

Rusland Horizons is one of the first community-led Landscape Partnership Schemes to be funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund. Between 2016 and 2019 Rusland Horizons is carrying out a range of projects to revive traditional skills, and to learn about, enhance and enjoy the heritage, habitats and wildlife of this quiet and very special place.

This layer denoted the boundary extent of the Scheme.

Conservation increasingly operates at the landscape scale. For this to be effective, we need landscape scale information on species distributions and the environmental factors that underpin them. Species records are becoming increasingly available via data centres and online portals, but they are often patchy and biased. We demonstrate how such data can yield useful habitat suitability models, using bat roost records as an example. We analysed the effects of environmental variables at eight spatial scales (500 m – 6 km) on roost selection by eight bat species (Pipistrellus pipistrellus, P. pygmaeus, Nyctalus noctula, Myotis mystacinus, M. brandtii, M. nattereri, M. daubentonii, and Plecotus auritus) using the presence-only modelling software MaxEnt. Modelling was carried out on a selection of 418 data centre roost records from the Lake District National Park, UK. Target group pseudoabsences were selected to reduce the impact of sampling bias. Multi-scale models, combining variables measured at their best performing spatial scales, were used to predict roosting habitat suitability, yielding models with useful predictive abilities. Small areas of deciduous woodland consistently increased roosting habitat suitability, but other habitat associations varied between species and scales. Pipistrellus were positively related to built environments at small scales, and depended on large-scale woodland availability. The other, more specialist, species were highly sensitive to human-altered landscapes, avoiding even small rural towns. The strength of many relationships at large scales suggests that bats are sensitive to habitat modifications far from the roost itself. The fine resolution, large extent maps will aid targeted decision-making by conservationists and planners. We have made available an ArcGIS toolbox that automates the production of multi-scale variables, to facilitate the application of our methods to other taxa and locations. Habitat suitability modelling has the potential to become a standard tool for supporting landscape-scale decision-making as relevant data and open source, user-friendly, and peer-reviewed software become widely available.

The Atlas of Canada Base Maps provide coverage of the entire Canadian landmass. Data elements are feature coded and structurally clean. Base map components are available in five scales and a number of data exchange formats. The 1:2 million and 1:7.5 million scales are the primary bases for all Atlas products. The 1:30 million scale data have been generalized from the two larger scales. The data set covers: drainage (coastlines, rivers, lakes), boundaries (federal, provincial, district, dividing lines), transportation (primary and secondary highways, selected ferry routes, rail networks), populated places, national parks. Atlas information is two-dimensional layered vector data.

The data set for the Porcupine Wash quadrangle has been prepared by the Southern California Areal Mapping Project (SCAMP), a cooperative project sponsored jointly by the U.S. Geological Survey and the California Division of Mines and Geology. The Porcupine Wash data set represents part of an ongoing effort to create a regional GIS geologic database for southern California. This regional digital database, in turn, is being developed as a contribution to the National Geologic Map Database of the National Cooperative Geologic Mapping Program of the USGS. The Porcupine Wash database has been prepared in cooperation with the National Park Service as part of an ongoing project to provide Joshua Tree National Park with a geologic map base for use in managing Park resources and developing interpretive materials.

The digital geologic map database for the Porcupine Wash quadrangle has been created as a general-purpose data set that is applicable to land-related investigations in the earth and biological sciences. Along with geologic map databases in preparation for adjoining quadrangles, the Porcupine Wash database has been generated to further our understanding of bedrock and surficial processes at work in the region and to document evidence for seismotectonic activity in the eastern Transverse Ranges. The database is designed to serve as a base layer suitable for ecosystem and mineral resource assessment and for building a hydrogeologic framework for Pinto Basin.

This data set maps and describes the geology of the Porcupine Wash 7.5 minute quadrangle, Riverside County, southern California. The quadrangle, situated in Joshua Tree National Park in the eastern Transverse Ranges physiographic and structural province, encompasses parts of the Hexie Mountains, Cottonwood Mountains, northern Eagle Mountains, and south flank of Pinto Basin. It is underlain by a basement terrane comprising Proterozoic metamorphic rocks, Mesozoic plutonic rocks, and Mesozoic and Mesozoic or Cenozoic hypabyssal dikes. The basement terrane is capped by a widespread Tertiary erosion surface preserved in remnants in the Eagle and Cottonwood Mountains and buried beneath Cenozoic deposits in Pinto Basin. Locally, Miocene basalt overlies the erosion surface. A sequence of at least three Quaternary pediments is planed into the north piedmont of the Eagle and Hexie Mountains, each in turn overlain by successively younger residual and alluvial deposits.

The Tertiary erosion surface is deformed and broken by north-northwest-trending, high-angle, dip-slip faults and an east-west trending system of high-angle dip- and left-slip faults. East-west trending faults are younger than and perhaps in part coeval with faults of the northwest-trending set.

The Porcupine Wash database was created using ARCVIEW and ARC/INFO, which are geographical information system (GIS) software products of Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI). The database consists of the following items: (1) a map coverage showing faults and geologic contacts and units, (2) a separate coverage showing dikes, (3) a coverage showing structural data, (4) a scanned topographic base at a scale of 1:24,000, and (5) attribute tables for geologic units (polygons and regions), contacts (arcs), and site-specific data (points). The database, accompanied by a pamphlet file and this metadata file, also includes the following graphic and text products: (1) A portable document file (.pdf) containing a navigable graphic of the geologic map on a 1:24,000 topographic base. The map is accompanied by a marginal explanation consisting of a Description of Map and Database Units (DMU), a Correlation of Map and Database Units (CMU), and a key to point-and line-symbols. (2) Separate .pdf files of the DMU and CMU, individually. (3) A PostScript graphic-file containing the geologic map on a 1:24,000 topographic base accompanied by the marginal explanation. (4) A pamphlet that describes the database and how to access it. Within the database, geologic contacts , faults, and dikes are represented as lines (arcs), geologic units as polygons and regions, and site-specific data as points. Polygon, arc, and point attribute tables (.pat, .aat, and .pat, respectively) uniquely identify each geologic datum and link it to other tables (.rel) that provide more detailed geologic information.

Map nomenclature and symbols

Within the geologic map database, map units are identified by standard geologic map criteria such as formation-name, age, and lithology. The authors have attempted to adhere to the stratigraphic nomenclature of the U.S. Geological Survey and the North American Stratigraphic Code, but the database has not received a formal editorial review of geologic names.

Special symbols are associated with some map units. Question marks have been added to the unit symbol (e.g., QTs?, Prpgd?) and unit name where unit assignment based on interpretation of aerial photographs is uncertain. Question marks are plotted as part of the map unit symbol for those polygons to which they apply, but they are not shown in the CMU or DMU unless all polygons of a given unit are queried. To locate queried map-unit polygons in a search of database, the question mark must be included as part of the unit symbol.

Geologic map unit labels entered in database items LABL and PLABL contain substitute characters for conventional stratigraphic age symbols: Proterozoic appears as 'Pr' in LABL and as '<' in PLABL, Triassic appears as 'Tr' in LABL and as '^' in PLABL. The substitute characters in PLABL invoke their corresponding symbols from the GeoAge font group to generate map unit labels with conventional stratigraphic symbols.
