Corine Landuse (Corine Landuse) Corine habitat type within site based on Corine GIS classification. Liable to Flood (Liable to Flood) Whether the site occurred within a Liable to Flood area as mapped on the OS six inch map. Yes/no option. Obtained from the GIS. Site background/research/previous survey data (Site Background data) List of publications and reports holding habitat information on the site. Code used to identify report in related CWS Bibliography database. Type of Information held on site in literature (Type of Information Source available on site) A list of information categories under which data has been recorded on the site, including: Vegetation Type Data (relevé data); Species Data (both general and on rare species); Habitat Data (Fossitt format); Habitat Map available; Hydrochemical Data; Site Size (from published sources); Ownership Data; Detailed Site Description; Site Management; Conservation Designation. Wetland Area on Site (Wetland Areas on site) Check box system to record whether a CWS wetland type occurred on site, was likely to occur or was absent. Polygon Source Comment (Polygon Source Comment) Source of the GIS polygon used to describe the site. Options: NPWS Existing - shape file obtained from NPWS source; CWS new - polygon created as part of the current project; Other – shape file obtained from other third party study. GIS Shapefile Source (GIS shapefile data reference) Code number relating to the report or data source, as per Appendix 1, which contained the GIS shapefile for the site in question. Comment Box (Comment box) (not exported to GIS site database) Text field to hold temporary comments on site, queries on site etc. Used during data compilation phase. Temporary flag record (Temporary flag record) (not exported to GIS site database) Check box allowing the temporary flagging of selected site records. Habitat, Species & Threats Layout Main Fossitt Habitat Present (Main Fossitt habitat present) A list of all Fossitt habitat types present within the site, based on the classification system of Fossitt was recorded (excluded Marine habitat types). Rare/Noteworthy Species data source (Species data source) List of publications and reports holding species information on rare and threatened species on the site.

Overall severity of site damage (Severity of damage) Four point damage severity scale. Based on NPWS scale. Habitat Area Layout Habitat Area in ha fields (Fossitt code plus the word Area e.g. PF1 Area) A list of the extent of the Fossitt wetland habitat types occurring within the site, was recorded. Areas were calculated from the GIS and were entered against the appropriate habitat type. Length present in km fields (Fossitt code plus the word Length e.g. FW2 Length) A list of the length of the linear wetland habitat types occurring within the site, was recorded. Lengths were calculated from the GIS and were entered against the appropriate habitat type. Site Description Layout Site Description (Site description) (not exported to GIS site database) Text field to hold third party site descriptions for site record. Site Description Source (Site description source) (not exported to GIS site database) Text field to hold name of the third party source who provided site description e.g. NPWS, IPCC etc. 4.2 Data fields in the CWS Bibliography database Bibliog Number: Unique number created by Filemaker Pro application when new publication record is added to database. This is subsequently used in the main NPWS Fen Study database to relate back to reference in the Bibliography database. Authors: Author(s) of report, surname and initial format. Year: Year in which report/publication was published. Title: Title of report/publication and where relevant title of book this appeared in. Journal, Publisher, Location, No. Pages: further details of publication. A series of check boxes indicating whether this reference was cited in the final fen study report; provided information to the study database and or was a NPWS blanket bog or raised bog survey report. These check boxes were subsequently used to generate lists of publication. 88
