  2. Themed Maps Developed to support State of Environment report A real time report of the state of Scotland’s environment to the EU Constructed from 30 existing Web services – used by the map, not owned by the maps Development of additional applications (sourced from partners) in the future

  3. Scotland’s Environment web: LIFE+ funding Phase 2 ‘Working together to prioritise environmental issues and help deliver a better environment for us all.’

  4. A single point of access to multiple sources of data on Scotland’s Environment Creating tools to support the analysis and interpretation of data Improved access to environmental data and information Tools and an online platform to support public engagement and citizen science/action Organisations working together for environmental protection and improvement in Scotland.

  5. Land Information Search Draw lines/shapes for the area of search

  6. The report provides a list of all the corresponding land designations that are contained within or close to the line or shape.

  7. A new map application just for Hydro! Based on a similar theme to the land information search (LIS) Allows the user to draw a search area polygon on a map in order to acquire data for the applicable licenses and permissions in a hydro proposal. The application will provide a consistent, reliable, one-stop shop for gathering and viewing data and information relevant to hydro-electric developments.

  8. Hydro Application – Next stage Increasing the number of data sharing partners Those relevant to hydro development Ensuring the data in the applications is up to date and efficiently maintained Ensuing accuracy of data Get in touch with the SEWeb Team to get involved: Lesley.whyte@sepa.org.uk
