    Description

    A lookup between 2011 Census enumeration postcodes for England and Wales, and the parishes / communities, wards and local authority districts as at 31 December 2011. Enumeration postcodes are a sub-Output Area (OA) geography used only for the publication of estimates of males, females and households in the 2011 Census. The enumeration postcodes are defined as only those valid unit postcodes that were recorded during the 2011 Census as containing usually resident population. Postcodes have been assigned using a ‘point-in-polygon’ methodology that plots each postcode's mean address (centroid) into the areas of each of the parishes / communities, wards and local authority districts (LAD). In England there is not a full coverage of parishes, so the 2011 Census enumeration postcodes that do not fall into a parish will have no parish allocation. There are also 23 parishes (0.2%) that do not contain any enumeration postcode centroids. This occurs where a parish contains population, but the centroid of the postcode falls outside the parish. In these instances it is not possible to allocate a postcode to the parish.

    Description

    The Access Network Map of England is a national composite dataset of Access layers, showing analysis of extent of Access provision for each Lower Super Output Area (LSOA), as a percentage or area coverage of access in England. The ‘Access Network Map’ was developed by Natural England to inform its work to improve opportunities for people to enjoy the natural environment. This map shows, across England, the relative abundance of accessible land in relation to where people live. Due to issues explained below, the map does not, and cannot, provide a definitive statement of where intervention is necessary. Rather, it should be used to identify areas of interest which require further exploration. Natural England believes that places where people can enjoy the natural environment should be improved and created where they are most wanted. Access Network Maps help support this work by providing means to assess the amount of accessible land available in relation to where people live. They combine all the available good quality data on access provision into a single dataset and relate this to population. This provides a common foundation for regional and national teams to use when targeting resources to improve public access to greenspace, or projects that rely on this resource. The Access Network Maps are compiled from the datasets available to Natural England which contain robust, nationally consistent data on land and routes that are normally available to the public and are free of charge. Datasets contained in the aggregated data:•
    Agri-environment scheme permissive access (routes and open access)•
    CROW access land (including registered common land and Section 16)•
    Country Parks•
    Cycleways (Sustrans Routes) including Local/Regional/National and Link Routes•
    Doorstep Greens•
    Local Nature Reserves•
    Millennium Greens•
    National Nature Reserves (accessible sites only)•
    National Trails•
    Public Rights of Way•
    Forestry Commission ‘Woods for People’ data•
    Village Greens – point data only Due to the quantity and complexity of data used, it is not possible to display clearly on a single map the precise boundary of accessible land for all areas. We therefore selected a unit which would be clearly visible at a variety of scales and calculated the total area (in hectares) of accessible land in each. The units we selected are ‘Lower Super Output Areas’ (LSOAs), which represent where approximately 1,500 people live based on postcode. To calculate the total area of accessible land for each we gave the linear routes a notional width of 3 metres so they could be measured in hectares. We then combined together all the datasets and calculated the total hectares of accessible land in each LSOA.

    Description

    Introduction This dataset provides information on where UK Power Networks requires flexibility services. The dataset provides a mapping of postcodes to Flexibility Zones – for all existing and historic day-ahead and long-term flexibility requirements. This enables potential flexibility service providers to quickly understand their eligibility for revenue from flexibility, without sharing any sensitive personal or commercial information. This dataset provides an approximation of eligibility for our flexibility tenders. Please note that even if your asset is within a postcode listed in this dataset, as part of the flexibility procurement process we will need to validate that the individual meter point (MPAN) is electrically connected to the Flexibility Zone. Methodological Approach Postcodes are listed against a Flexibility Zone where at least one meter point within that postcode is electrically connected to the constrained network asset. For large Flexibility Zones, which cover multiple postcodes, this will be a very good indication of eligibility for flexibility services. For smaller Flexibility Zones, particularly those at Low Voltage, a significant proportion of properties within a listed postcode may ultimately not be eligible. As part of our flexibility procurement process, we will check the individual meter point (MPAN) to confirm its final eligibility. This dataset offers an approximation of eligibility, without requiring any sharing of household or business level data. Quality Control Statement Dispatches are passed through a quality control algorithm to flag anomalies and erroneous data. Quality control checks include: Checking the formatting of postcodes Checking the number of postcodes mapped to each Flexibility Zone Checking that Flexibility Zone names align with those in other datasets on the Open Data Portal and on UK Power Networks’ chosen flexibility market platform: www.localflex.co.uk Assurance Statement The Flex Zone to Postcode mapping is reviewed before publication by a member of Flexibility Markets team.

    Description

    The Historic Flood Map is a GIS layer showing the maximum extent of individual Recorded Flood Outlines from river, the sea and groundwater springs that meet a set criteria. It shows areas of land that have previously been subject to flooding in England. This excludes flooding from surface water, except in areas where it is impossible to determine whether the source is fluvial or surface water but the dominant source is fluvial.

    The majority of records began in 1946 when predecessor bodies to the Environment Agency started collecting detailed information about flooding incidents, although we hold limited details about flooding incidents prior to this date.

    If an area is not covered by the Historic Flood Map it does not mean that the area has never flooded, only that we do not currently have records of flooding in this area that meet the criteria for inclusion. It is also possible that the pattern of flooding in this area has changed and that this area would now flood or not flood under different circumstances. Outlines that don’t meet this criteria are stored in the Recorded Flood Outlines dataset.

    The Historic Flood Map takes into account the presence of defences, structures, and other infrastructure where they existed at the time of flooding. It will include flood extents that may have been affected by overtopping, breaches or blockages.

    Flooding is shown to the land and does not necessarily indicate that properties were flooded internally.

    Description

    The Education and Skills Funding Agency (ESFA) closed on 31 March 2025. All activity has moved to the Department for Education (DfE). You should continue to follow this guidance.

    You might find these adult skills fund (ASF) data files showing the funding bodies that are responsible for funding each postcode in England useful.

    We use this data in funding calculations to support publicly funded education and skills in England; covering 16 to 19 study programmes, adult education budget (AEB), level 3 free courses for jobs (FCFJ), apprenticeships, the European Social Fund and advanced learner loans bursary. This includes devolved AEB and level 3 FCFJ qualifications funded by mayoral combined authorities or the Greater London Authority.

    AEB postcode files

    To support the devolution of AEB, we have produced postcode files to show which postcodes are within the devolved areas, and consequently which body is responsible for AEB learners resident in a given postcode.

    How we use data from different years

    For funded learners aged 16 to 19, we apply the most recent single funding year’s factors to all learners in that funding year, regardless of their start date.

    For adult-funded aims and apprenticeship frameworks, we changed our calculations in the 2016 to 2017 year to apply the factor or cash value in our calculations based on the date when the learner started the aim or programme. For example, for learners who started adult-funded aims or apprenticeship frameworks from 1 August 2017 to 31 July 2018, we used the values from the 2017 to 2018 tables in the funding calculations for 2018 to 2019 and then in subsequent years.

    Postcodes area cost uplifts

    The area cost uplift reflects the higher cost of delivering provision in some parts of the country, such as London and the south east.

    Disadvantage uplifts

    These are uplifts or amounts for learners living in the most disadvantaged areas of the country.

    Historically we have used various versions of the Index of Multiple Deprivation (IMD) to determine disadvantage factors and uplifts.

    The IMD is assigned based on lower layer super output areas (LSOAs). LSOAs are a set of geographical areas developed, following the 2001 census, with the aim of defining areas of consistent size whose boundaries would not change between censuses.

    Therefore, we initially set disadvantage factors at LSOA level, and then apply the factors to postcodes within each LSOA. We publish disadvantage information on this page at LSOA level and also at postcode level.

    For the year 2021 to 2022 onwards, we use the 2019 IMD for provision funded by Education and Skills Funding Agency (ESFA). This used the LSOA mapping from the 2011 census.

    For the year 2016 to 2017 up to and including the year 2020 to 2021, we used the 2015 IMD. This used the LSOA mapping from the 2011 census.

    Up to the funding year 2015 to 2016, we used the 2010 IMD which used the LSOAs from the 2001 census as its underlying mapping.

    Description

    This method provides statistics on relative deprivation in England, Wales, and Scotland, including:

    • The Index of Multiple Deprivation (IMD) – a measure of overall deprivation
    • Domain-specific indices (e.g., income, employment, education, health etc.) that differ by country
    • Area rankings and deciles for simplified analysis

    Area Types

    The indices assess deprivation at a small-area level:

    • England & Wales: Lower-layer Super Output Areas (LSOAs)
    • Scotland: Data Zones

    Ranking & Deciles

    Each area is ranked from most to least deprived:

    • England: 1 (most deprived) to 32,844 (least deprived)
    • Wales: 1 (most deprived) to 1,909 (least deprived)
    • Scotland: 1 (most deprived) to 6,976 (least deprived)

    The ranks are available in the imdRank field, with domain-specific ranks in fields such as incomeRank, employmentRank, crimeRank, etc.

    To simplify, areas are also categorized into deciles (1 = most deprived, 10 = least deprived), available in fields like imdDecile, incomeDecile, employmentDecile, etc.

    Mapping & Consumer Platform Adjustments

    We use deciles to color-code our deprivation map. However, on our consumer platform, we reversed the ratings scale to match user expectations where higher ratings are associated with higher deprivation.

    For example, postcode W6 0LJ (imdDecile 2, a highly deprived area) is displayed as “_Index of Multiple Deprivation - 9/10 or high_” on the consumer platform.

    PLEASE NOTE: This record has been retired. It has been superseded by: https://environment.data.gov.uk/dataset/f81508d3-cf5a-44ed-ae7e-452be665af84 This dataset is a product of a national assessment of flood risk for England produced using local expertise. It is produced using the Risk of Flooding from Rivers and Sea data which shows the chance of flooding from rivers and/or the sea, based on cells of 50m. Each cell is allocated one of four flood risk categories, taking into account flood defences and their condition.

    This dataset uses OS address data and Royal Mail postcode data to show how many properties are in each of four flood risk categories in each postcode, based simply on the category allocated to the cell that each property is in.

    Description

    The property subsidence assessment dataset provides an understanding of the shrink-swell hazard at both the individual property and/or postcode level for England and Wales. It builds upon the BGS GeoSure shrink-swell data by mapping the hazard to the individual building polygon and considering the other susceptibility factors of building type, foundation depth, and drainage and tree proximity. The data consist of GIS building polygons with an overall susceptibility to subsidence score between 1-100. Scores are also classified from non-plastic to very high. Each building polygon is also scored from 1-10 for each subsidence factor (geology, foundation, drainage, building type, building storey and tree proximity). Postcode data is also available as a table showing the ‘average’ PSA score for all buildings within the postcode. The identification of shrink-swell related subsidence prone areas, alongside the inclusion of potential sources to exacerbate these phenomena, can better inform insurers and homeowners and form the basis to make decisions concerning prevention and remediation. The product enhances geological information obtained from GIP (BGS GeoSure Insurance Product) and GeoSure via the inclusion of the crucial shrink-swell susceptibility factors (proximity to trees and foundation depth). This therefore allows the derivation of a risk element for the housing stock at Building level, which is then generalised to Postcode level.

    Description

    This is the data associated with the paper submitted entitled:

    A Novel Approach for Mapping Exposure to Land Cover at the Small Statistical Geography Level

    Joanne K. Garrett1, Lewis R. Elliott1, Rebecca Lovell1, Benedict W. Wheeler1, Tom Marshall2, Fränze Kibowski2, Benjamin B. Philips3, Kevin J. Gaston3

    This dataset includes the Living England percentage land cover at the LSOA level calculated by two methods. These methods are referred to as the "proposed" method and the "typical" method. Our proposed method uses data at both LSOA and postcode (sub-LSOA) levels for England, first calculating the percentage coverage of land cover types within 300 m postcode buffers, then averaging these at the LSOA level weighted by the number of domestic postal delivery addresses (as a proxy for population per postcode). It mitigates edge effects by allowing habitat exposure to extend beyond the LSOA boundary through the use of a 300-metre postcode buffer and maintains consistency across varying LSOA sizes. We argue that the new proposed approach reduces the potential for exposure misclassification associated with variable unit size at the small statistical geography level.

    The variables are described in the included file data_variable_descriptions.xlsx

    The code is available on Github at github.com/j-k-garrett/RENEW_mapping.

    LSOAs were obtained for the year 2011 [1]. Postcode locations were obtained from the UK’s Ordnance Survey dataset of postcode locations (Codepoint; [2]), which is accessible through the Edina Digimap service for UK educational and research institutions. The Living England Habitat Map is a probability-based map showing the extent and distribution of broad habitats across England [3]. Estuaries and rias were obtained from the Coastal Physiographic features product from JNCC [4.5]. Boundary data for Scotland and Wales were obtained from the Ordnance Survey dataset Boundary-Line [6].

    The study was funded by the Natural Environment Research Council ‘Renewing biodiversity through a people-in-nature approach (RENEW)’ project (NE/W004941/1)

    Description

    Introduction This dataset is a geospatial view of the areas fed by primary substations. The aim is to create an indicative map showing the extent to which individual primary substations feed areas based on MPAN data.

    Methodological Approach
    
      Data Extraction: MPAN data is downloaded from the geographical system. The system searches with a geographical window and assigns it to the nearest supply point.
      Connectivity. Data is taken from the connectivity model and mapped to the relevant MPAN.
      Data Filtering: Any coordinates that are more than 500m from the nearest secondary site are removed.
      Primary Assignment: Postcodes of the MPANs are assigned to a primary substation based on the number of MPANs fed.
      Polygon Creation: Primary Feed Polygons are created and cleaned up to remove holes and inclusions.
      Hierarchy Construction: Grid Supply Point polygons are produced from schematics and merged based on hierarchical relationships.
      FLOC Matching: Functional Location Codes (FLOC) are matched to the respective sites.
    
    
    Quality Control Statement
    Quality control measures include:
    
      Verification steps to match features only with confirmed FLOCs.
      Manual review and correction of data inconsistencies.
      Use of additional verification steps to ensure accuracy in the methodology.
      Regular updates and reviews documented in the version history.
    
    
    Assurance Statement
    The Open Data team, worked with the Geospatial Data Engineering team ensure data accuracy and consistency.
