Work Packages
Countryside Survey is organised into a series of components known as Work Packages (WP), which are managed and undertaken by highly trained teams of people. Each WP contains a wealth of knowledge and expertise in a specific area of the Survey. This ensures that everything from collecting data in the field, to subsequent analysis and reporting, is handled by experts.
The 2007 Survey includes the following Work Packages – use the links to access more information:
- WP1: Landscape Features, Habitats and Vegetation
- WP2: Land Cover Map
- WP3: Freshwaters
- WP4: Soils
- WP5: Reporting
- WP6: Integrated Assessment
- WP7: Field Survey
- WP8: Informatics
- WP10: Project Management and Communications
Please note: Work Packages from previous Surveys – namely ‘Links with Other Surveys’ (formerly WP6) and ‘Statistical Support’ (WP9) – have been absorbed into WPs 1, 2, 3 and 4.
