To obtain information on the dominant botanical species composition of habitats, in selected areas. Some records of birds are also noted. The aim of the study was to collate ecological data on the habitats in these public spaces.
Walkover surveys of public spaces and parks.
The surveys focus on public spaces in Cork City Administrative Area. The scale of surveys is shown below in the attached map, where surveys were conducted in a relatively low resolution.
The datasets provides ecological data on site-specific areas. As some sites are large, the resolution refers to the broad areas within the boundaries of such described lands. Typically, these areas are pars, and therefore the resolution refers to a park area. Therefore the resolution of data is relatively low. A supplementary report has been made which highlights the broad habitats of the dominant plant species assemblages.
