Use cases llm-inferred: Catchment attribute screening for flood risk assessment baselines across GB catchments · Rainfall and potential evapotranspiration input series for calibrating rainfall-runoff models on GB catchments · Comparing soils, hydrogeology and land cover attributes for ungauged-catchment flow estimation
Audience llm-inferred: hydrologists · flood consultants · drainage engineers · GIS analysts

Constraints llm-inferred: Time series end on 30 September 2015, so no recent data is included · Attributes derive from source products of varying date and resolution (e.g. Land Cover Map 2015, European Soil Database), with their own uncertainties · Distributed as static CSV and Shapefile downloads, with no API or automated update
