OWLS:
Oxfordshire Biomap
The Biomap is a measure of the variation in bioscores across the county and these, in turn, are a reflection of the range and type of habitats associated with each landscape description unit. The bioscores have been grouped into broader biobands (see key below). A bioband which is classified as very high tends to support a wider range of wildlife habitats including some which may be of national or international importance. Lower biobands generally have fewer habitats and these are usually of more local importance.
