Completed Peatland Restoration Project Centroids from Scottish Government

Peatland ACTION Completed restoration project site centroids provide geographic centroids for completed peatland restoration projects in Scotland. The data is represented as polygons created by buffering spatial data from on-site restoration techniques, offering a visual representation of project size and shape. This dataset is provided by the Scottish Government SpatialData.gov.scot and was last updated on 2026-06-02.

Use Cases

• Mapping the spatial distribution of completed peatland restoration projects based on geographic centroids.
• Estimating the total area of restored peatlands based on the size and shape of project footprints.
• Analyzing project completion timelines based on the financial year end information associated with each centroid.
• Planning future restoration efforts by visualizing the location and scale of existing completed projects.

Strengths

• Data includes detailed project information such as financial year end and project area size.
• Polygon footprints provide a visual representation of the size and shape of completed projects.
• The dataset is sourced from the authoritative Scottish Government SpatialData.gov.scot platform.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Freshness should be verified as the last update date is 2026-06-02.
