https://doi.org/10.5285/0c3567a8-3700-4d52-a21f-de1bd709141a Cite this dataset
The dataset consists of a map of individual ash trees (Fraxinus excelsior) across Great Britain. The data is derived from Countryside Survey 2007 and includes individual trees in the landscape, clumps of trees and veteran trees. Trees were mapped in 569 1km sample squares across Britain, and this national estimate dataset was derived from the sample data using ITE Land Classes.
