Woodland Grant Scheme 2 1991-1994

The Woodland Grant Scheme (WGS) provided incentives for people to create and manage woodlands on sites all over Great Britain. The Forestry Commission paid grants for establishing and looking after woodlands and forests. To qualify for grant the applicant must have met the standards of environmental protection and practice set out in the Forestry Commission’s guidelines. WGS2 operated between June 1991 and September 1994. It was replaced by WGS3 Updates to scheme boundaries and grant aided areas were incorporated into the dataset on a regular basis until the end of 2012. No further changes will be made after this time. For more detailed information please see the metadata record on Scotland's SpatialData.gov.scot Metadata Portal.林地补助金计划（Woodland Grant Scheme，WGS）为全大不列颠境内的民众在各类地块上营建与管护林地提供了激励支持。英国林业委员会（Forestry Commission）会为林地与森林的营建及日常管护发放补助金。申请者须符合英国林业委员会指南中规定的环境保护标准与作业规范，方可申领该补助金。WGS2的实施时段为1991年6月至1994年9月，其后由WGS3取代。本数据集会定期更新计划边界与补助金资助区域的相关信息，直至2012年年末，此后将不再进行任何更新。如需获取更详尽的信息，请参阅苏格兰SpatialData.gov.scot元数据门户中的元数据记录。
