South Downs National Park

We have been working on some resources in association with the South Downs National Park authority, the newest of the National Parks. There was a big map of the park up in the office the last time I went in.
Part of the extension of these materials, which we are developing for the ESRI GIS courses, will make use of the LEARNING ZONE where there is a page of data downloads.
These files include a range of data about habitats, ecosystems and various landscape types.

There is an ESRI shapefile available for free download from the NATURAL ENGLAND website (click data downloads) which has outlines of all the national parks as a useful starting point too...

I shall be travelling through the South Downs later this week on the way to Brighton for a conference where I'm speaking about Curriculum  making... Which reminds me that I need to finish off the delegate resources and send those through....
