Description
This dataset contains the boundaries for river catchments in Scotland based on
the dataset `Hydrological sections for England, Scotland and Wales with
associated river catchment 2023, Water Framework Directive (WFD) waterbody and
regional information British National Grid (BNG)`_ These catchment boundaries
have been derived from hydrological sections, have boundaries almost identical
to existing Fish Health Inspectorate river catchments, and include complete
coverage of the waterbodies under the Water Framework Directive.
Note this dataset only includes catchments in Scotland. England and Wales are
represented as a single area. For complete coverage of England, Scotland and
Wales use `Catchment boundaries for England, Scotland and Wales based on

There are 2 versions of the dataset; a geographical coordinate reference
system (CRS) WGS84 (EPSG 4326) see `Catchment boundaries for Scotland based
on Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA) catchments (WGS84) 2023`_
and this dataset a projected CRS British National Grid (BNG - EPSG 27700) .
