Uniform constraints layer.South Hams Special Conservation Area (SAC) amalgamated bat Radio Tracking data from Buckfastleigh and Chudleigh.In 2002 Natural England commissioned radio tracking work on a number of Greater Horseshoe Bats from the Chudleigh Caves part of the South Hams SAC then in 2003 some bats from Buckfastleigh Caves were radio tracked. Six GIS layers were mapped based on this work. This layer combines those six into one layer. In shows actual and suspected flight routes and foraging areas. These should be considered as planning constraints and NE’s South Hams SAC Planning Guidance should be followed.This layer is made up of:sde.GISADMIN.species -BatGtrHorseshoeChudBuckRadioTracking (buffered to a 20m diameter) - This is actually 2 layers (BuckfastleighRadioTracking and ChudleighSuspectedConnections).sde.GISADMIN.SpeciesRestricted - Bat_Flight_route (buffered to a 20m diameter)sde.GISADMIN.SpeciesRestricted - Bat_Foraging_areasde.GISADMIN.SpeciesRestricted - ApproximateForagingAreassde.GISADMIN.SpeciesRestricted - Buckfastleigh_Caves_region |
