Areas of Particular Importance for Biodiversity (APIB)

Areas of Particular Importance for Biodiversity (APIB), including nationally and locally designated conservation sites, irreplaceable habitats, and other ecologically significant locations. Together with Areas that Could Become of Particular Importance for Biodiversity (ACBs), and Potential Measures, these make up the Lancashire Local Nature Recovery Strategy (LNRS). This dataset contains spatial layers associated with the Lancashire Local Nature Recovery Strategy (LNRS), published in January 2026. These layers were developed collaboratively through a local partnership, following statutory guidance from the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA). Together, these spatial layers represent a strategic vision for enhancing and connecting habitats across Lancashire to support biodiversity and wider environmental objectives.生物多样性重点区域（Areas of Particular Importance for Biodiversity, APIB）包含国家及地方划定的保护地、不可替代的生境与其他具有生态重要性的区域。该区域与潜在生物多样性重点区域（Areas that Could Become of Particular Importance for Biodiversity, ACBs）及潜在举措共同组成兰开夏郡本地自然恢复战略（Lancashire Local Nature Recovery Strategy, LNRS）。本数据集涵盖2026年1月发布的兰开夏郡本地自然恢复战略相关空间图层。这些图层由地方合作联盟依据环境、食品与农村事务部（Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, DEFRA）的法定指南联合开发，共同构成了优化并连通兰开夏郡全境生境、以支撑生物多样性保护及更广范围环境目标的战略愿景。
