Nature & Climate Context

The concepts and data-literacy topics that sit underneath the law and the datasets. Not tied to one regulation or one dataset — this is where we explain the ideas you need in order to read everything else on WildKnowledge correctly.

Being populated in Phase 1

This category is scaffolded but not yet written. The pages below are proposed in the sitemap and awaiting review before Phase 1 content generation.

Planned pages:

  • How Machine-Learning-Derived Land Cover Differs From Surveyed Data — the methodology explainer behind the PHI vs. Living England distinction.
  • Reading a Habitat Classification System (UKHab) — how to read the codes, and why classification schemes don't map onto each other 1:1.
  • Ancient and Irreplaceable Habitats — what "irreplaceable" means legally and ecologically, and why BNG cannot offset it.
  • Coordinate Reference Systems for Nature Data — why the wrong CRS silently corrupts area and overlap calculations.
  • Reliability, Confidence, and What a Dataset Doesn't Say — absence of evidence vs. evidence of absence, across the whole data stack.
