BIS for Powys & Brecon Beacons National Park

Description

The Biodiversity Information Service for Powys and Brecon Beacons National Park (BIS) is the Local Environmental Record Centre for the county of Powys and the Brecon Beacons National Park. This area includes the vice counties of Montgomeryshire, Radnorshire and Breconshire and includes parts of Carmarthenshire, Monmouthshire and Denbighshire.

BIS provides a mechanism for collating, sharing and utilising the wealth of biological data and knowledge, which exists in Powys and the Brecon Beacons National Park. The aim of BIS is to make information on wildlife, their habitats and important sites, readily available to those who need it. This will ensure that decisions, which may affect the natural heritage in the Powys and Brecon Beacons National Park area, are made with the best available knowledge.

BIS is part fo the first national network of record centres in the UK, known as Local Environmental Record Centre Wales (LERC Wales). The four record centres in LERC Wales work together to provide seamless biodiversity information across the whole of Wales. This can be viewed using the LERC Wales Biodiversity and Information Reporting Database, Aderyn - https://aderyn.lercwales.org.uk/home
