Description: Spatial Framework for onshore wind energy development as specified in SPP 2014.
This version has been dissolved to simplify geometry and attributes. There is a single 'Framework' attribute which say which 'group' each feature is in.
Areas fall into one of three 'groups':
Group 1: Areas where wind farms will not be acceptable.
Group 2: Areas of significant protection
Group 3: Areas with potential for wind farm development.
Created using FME. Simple 2km buffer of development boundaries used, we did not take visibility into account.
