This data is the source dataset for the Forestry Commissions Headline Performance
Indicator: 'Percentage of woodland in active management (including the Public Forest
Estate)'.
This Indicator forms part of the Forestry Commissions Corporate Plan Performance
Indicators and Woodland Indicators 2011/12.
This FC website gives more information about the Performance Indicators:
http://www.forestry.gov.uk/website/forestry.nsf/byunique/infd-8kmhu6
For the purposes of the corporate indicator, 'Actively Managed’ woodland is currently defined
using the following FC administrative data sources. It is recognised that there are
other woodlands that could be considered to be 'managed'.
1) Any English Woodland Grant Scheme (EWGS) Woodland Creation Grant (WCG)
whose first instalment payment date was < 10 years ago at the end of the reporting
period.
2) Any English Woodland Grant Scheme (EWGS) Woodland Management Grant
(WMG) whose first instalment payment date was < 5 years ago at the end of the reporting period.
3) Any English Woodland Grant Scheme (EWGS) Woodland Planning Grant (WPG)
whose first instalment payment date was < 10 years ago at the end of the reporting
period.
4) Any English Woodland Grant Scheme (EWGS) Woodland Improvement Grant
(WIG) whose first instalment payment date was < 5 years ago at the end of the
reporting period.
5) Any Farm Woodland Premium Scheme (FWPS) and Farm Woodland Premium
(FWP) whose scheme approval date was <30 years ago at the end of the reporting
period.
6) Any Woodland Grants Scheme Mk3 (WGS3) schemes that have been in contract
in the 15 years up until the end of the reporting period.
7) Any Felling Licence Applications (FLA) whose registration date was <10 years ago
at the end of the reporting period.
8) All Public Forest Estate land owned and/or managed by the Forestry Commission
at the end of the reporting period.
EXCLUDED: EWGS Woodland Assessment Grant (WAG), EWGS Woodland
Regeneration Grant (WRG), Forest Plans, Dedication, WGS2, WGS1 and Natural
England’s HLS.
The 'denominator' used for calculation of the indicator, i.e. the figure used as the entire
woodland area in England, was that obtained from the most recent version of the
National Forest Inventory (NFI) at the time of computation.
The administrative data sources are integrated to produce a single layer indicating woodland management status and this is provided as a georeferenced .tiff raster file here.
Cell values: 0 = Unmanaged woodland, 1 = Actively managed woodland. Cell size: 25m.

dataset
The data is built from the administrative vector data inputs described in the
abstract and the Forestry Commissions National Forest Inventory (NFI) vector
dataset. All vector inputs are put through a rasterisation process to produce
rasters with a resolution of 25 metres.
All administrative raster inputs are then combined to create a single 'Managed
Woodland' input raster with a 25 resolution. This combined input raster is then
used to reclassify the NFI 25m raster into values representing 'Actively
Managed' and 'Unmanaged'.
Finally the reclassified NFI raster is converted to TIFF format to produce the
dataset this metadata is associated with.
