Title: Map

Comments: Peat soils are defined as soil with a surface peat layer of at least 50 cm thickness and with more than 60% organic matter. The map is in raster format, with a single band of values indicating the level of agreement between selected sources:Value: 0; label: no sources predict peat soilValue: 1; label: one source predicts peat soilValue: 2; label: two sources predict peat soilValue: 3; label: all three sources predict peat soilFull agreement does not guarantee the presence or absence of peat soil.For the full methodology, please see: [link].
Subject: This dataset shows the level of agreement between a selection of recent maps of peat soil. The purpose of this dataset is to help show uncertainty around recent estimates of peat soil - it should not be used for site-level project planning. It accompanies the publication, ‘Official Statistics on Scotland’s Peatland 2026’.
