Summary

NatureScot (NS) has prepared a consolidated spatial dataset of peat depth measurement collected across Scotland. The information was collected during peat depth surveys conducted as part of various assessments carried out on sites that formed part of the Peatland ACTION project (2013-2023).

Surveys were conducted using the Peat depth survey guidance (https://www.nature.scot/sites/default/files/2017-10/Guidance-Peatland-Action-Peat-depth-survey-2017-18-A2210297.pdf) issued by Peatland Action program. The current version of the dataset provides all available data on 9th March 2023. Additional datasets will be added to the database when they become available.

The surveys were conducted at a spatial resolution of 100m over a wide geographical spread of the sites across Scotland.
