This dataset represents the National Parks of the UK. A representative map has been included to provide an overview of the data. Most areas are tagged with the park name, although where the park is made up from a number of small polygons, only the large ones have complete attributes. This dataset was created from OS Strategi data. Data was procesed in ArcGIS to polygonise the lines and then combine the text features to add attribute information about the individual parks. OS Strategi should be acknowledged as the source when this dataset is re-used, this is in accordance with the OS OpenData licence which is Creative Commons Attribution. GIS vector data. This dataset was first accessioned in the EDINA ShareGeo Open repository on 2011-03-02 and migrated to Edinburgh DataShare on 2017-02-21.
