Scotland, Native Woodland Survey of Scotland (NWSS)

The Native Woodland Survey of Scotland (NWSS) was carried out from 2006-2013 in order to establish the first authoritative picture of Scotland's native woodlands.
The field-based survey, whose results were released in full in February 2014, was undertaken by Forestry Commission Scotland to identify and map the location, extent, type and condition of all of Scotland's native woodlands.
For the differences between the Scotish NWSS and the British NFI, please refer to page 17 of the NWSS Report (BOX 4).
