Terrain Centroids for Special Plants and Vegetation in South Holland

Centroid points for areas in South Holland identified for their special vegetative and floristic values, as documented in the Altenburg & Wymenga Report No. 143. The dataset likely focuses on private areas considered more threatened and represents a 'genetic capital' for the region. It is provided by the Dutch Ministry of the Interior and Kingdom Relations.

Use Cases

• Mapping biodiversity hotspots based on reported special vegetative and floristic values.
• Prioritizing conservation efforts for threatened private areas as indicated in the description.
• Creating preliminary maps of natural values using the provided centroid locations.
• Analyzing the spatial distribution of a region's 'genetic capital' for plant life.

Strengths

• Based on a specific ecological report (Altenburg & Wymenga Report No. 143).
• Focuses on threatened private areas, providing a targeted conservation perspective.
• Provides centroids to enable display of small areas on maps.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count and dataset size are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Last update date is unknown; freshness unverified.
