- partial_coverage — Area-weighted average across the 6135 English ward records Forest Research's dataset actually has -- this covers 89.4% of England's current wards by count but only 54.6% of its real area, since the missing wards are disproportionately large/rural (see ADR-0009); this figure likely skews toward more urban canopy rates than true full-England coverage would show. Also blends multiple real survey years (2018-2023) into one figure, labelled with the modal year (2020).
