Precision: The data is presented in thousands of metres squared (000m2), to 2 decimal places. The statistics are therefore accurate to the nearest 10m2. Where there is no area of a given land type, a zero is shown in the cell. Where the area of a particular land type isnot zero, but is less than 5m2, this is shown by a dash (-) in the cell.
