Linear bocagers identified in Brittany in the summer of 2015

The bocager linear consists of hedges and bare or wooded slopes located in the Breton agricultural space and vectorised as part of collective operations in favour of bocage. His knowledge is essential in efforts to improve the quality of water and environments, to combat erosion, to preserve biodiversity and the quality of landscapes. The linears identified include the linears identified in the inventory to which are added the linears created (planting and/or slopes) including those of the last work campaign (winter 2014/2015). The definition of the bocager linear is explained in the documents available on http://cms.geobretagne.fr/bocage and in particular the technical sheets: fact sheet 2: typology of linear bocagers sheet 3: data structuring sheet 5: photo-interpretation The Breton bocager operators directory as well as the description of the attributes of the bocager linear layer are available in online resources. This dataset is to be compared to the one entitled “Contours of territories carrying the bocager linears identified in Brittany in the summer of 2015” which specifies the territorial extent impacted by the census.
