225 locations across Wales were resurveyed between 2021 and 2023 as part of the ERAMMP National Field Survey, with 95 containing at least one historic asset. The dataset provides condition, threat, and severity assessments for scheduled monuments and historic environmental features, managed by the UK Centre for Ecology & Hydrology.
Use Cases
- Analyze threat and severity assessment trends across the 95 surveyed locations containing historic assets.
- Compare condition assessment results between scheduled monuments and historic environmental features.
- Model environmental or land-use impacts on asset condition using the stratified random sampling design of 300 sites.
Strengths
- Data originates from a structured, government-backed monitoring program (ERAMMP) managed by the UK Centre for Ecology & Hydrology.
- Covers 225 resurveyed locations from a statistically designed sample of 300 1-km squares across Wales.
- Provides specialized assessments for two distinct asset types: scheduled monuments and historic environmental features.
Limitations
- Sample size is limited to 95 locations that actually contained historic assets, potentially restricting statistical power for some analyses.
- The dataset's scope is geographically restricted to Wales, limiting generalizability to other regions.
- Condition assessments are subjective field observations, which may introduce inter-surveyor variability.
