This layer is built and working but the publisher's licence does not permit an app like this to show it. It is listed so the gap is visible, and it will appear the day the publisher says yes.

What this layer shows

Scotland's Carbon and Peatland map (2016): the classes 1 and 2 that National Planning Framework 4 treats as nationally important carbon-rich soil. The first map any Scottish wind farm or forestry scheme opens. 439,700 polygons; draws close in.
