Some spatial layers need to be replaced

[CEJohnston]

The following layers need to be replaced as updated versions have been published (there have been site deletions, additions and/or boundary re-alignments):

Scottish layers: shapefiles to be downloaded from Scottish Natural Heritage at https://gateway.snh.gov.uk/natural-spaces/

ID: 6 sssi_scotland ID: 7 spa_scotland ID: 9 sac_scotland ID: 10 lnr_scotland ID: 11 nnr_scotland ID: 65 NVC_SCOTLAND ID: 72 MPA_SCOTLAND

English layers: ID: 57 Special_Areas_of_Conservation_England (http://naturalengland-defra.opendata.arcgis.com/datasets/special-areas-of-conservation-england)

Field information for ingesting the layers and for the metadata table are to be collated - will do so once timing of the upload is known.

Zip files for two files sac_england_edited.zip and sssi_scot_edited.zip have been uploaded to Teams. I have not been able to access SNH's Natural Spaces today so cannot progress any of the other files at the moment. Have emailed them to establish what the problem is.

[sophiathirza]

@CEJohnston, if you still can't access the site, I have all the zip files downloaded and can upload them to Teams.

[CEJohnston]

@sophiathirza thanks but its OK - I did get access to the site and have all of them downloaded. Have edited them all and will complete upload to Teams today hopefully.

[CEJohnston]

@sophiathirza All the above files except the NVC file have been edited and uploaded to Teams. The NVC file just needs a bit of finishing off in QGIS - will do that next but may not get it finished til Thursday morning as it takes a while to save.

[sophiathirza]

All zip files (except NVC) are uploaded to the layers server

[CEJohnston]

NVC is ready to be uploaded to TEAMS - will start it off now.

[sophiathirza]

NVC zip file is now on the layers server. All layers in this issue are ready now.

Layer 6 to be replaced with layer 118 Layer 7 to be replaced with layer 119 Layer 9 to be replaced with layer 120 Layer 10 to be replaced with layer 121 Layer 11 to be replaced with layer 122 Layer 65 to be replaced with layer 123 Layer 72 to be replaced with layer 124 Layer 57 to be replaced with layer 125

All new layers need metadata; the obsolete layers will be bulk-deleted at the end of the milestone

All looks fine except ID124 Nature Conservation Marine Protected Areas (Scotland) as one area is missing - we have 34 rather than 35 as supplied. It is Loch Carron (Emergency ncMPA). Below is image of Atlas legend and QGIS attribute table - any thoughts? Its the only one with brackets in its name (other areas have blank EUR_CODE but it was imported on PA_CODE):
