Landmap is a unique national information system, devised by the former Countryside Council for Wales (CCW), allowing information about landscape in Wales to be collected and organised into a nationally consistent dataset. The Landmap database includes both objective and subjective information and is designed to enable landscape quality to be taken into account in decision making. Geographic dataset showing cultural landscape classification for Wales in the form of polygons (Aspect Areas) with large amounts of associated textual information, including General, Description, Evaluation, Recommendations, Tolerance to Change, Area Boundary, Evaluation and Bibliography. The dataset records human activity that can be related to landscape, including major influences in art or literature which depicted or described the landscape, as well as more commonplace expressions of culture like farming type, or choice of building materials which creates a distinctive character in an area. Information is gathered by LANDMAP in order to inform sustainable decision making and to enable landscape to be taken into account during decision making processes. This dataset is important as landscape not only shapes, but is shaped by culture. The dataset will raise awareness and enable people to engage in landscape decision making in Wales. This dataset has been superseded by Dataset: Landmap Cultural Landscape Services (metadata number:125279)

A LANDMAP Quality Assurance Procedure is in place to ensure that LANDMAP Information meets an agreed standard of good practice and that data is accurate and consistent across Wales. A pdf is available detailing the Quality Assurance Procedure. The Cultural Landscape dataset is one of five evaluated aspects which make up the LANDMAP information system. The process of gathering, organising and evaluating data is similar for each and involves: 1) Classifying and mapping distinct Aspect Areas 2) Completing a detailed data capture form for each Aspect Area identified 3) Preparation of an accompanying Technical Report 4) Submission for Quality Assurance assessment
