The GSAA, provides the annual spatial declaration of the farmer in the frame of the Common Agricultural Policy. Data can only be shared anonymized; it does not contain personal information that could be used for the identification of the farmer. The polygons of the dataset locate agriculture land that is managed by the farmers. A parcel can only be associated to one farmer and can contain one or multiple land cover/use polygons such as; Arable Land, Fruit, Vines, Olive Trees, Artificial Sealed surfaces, Landscape Features, Green Houses, potential arable land that is not maintained is a state suitable for cultivation. In cases where the farmer applied for a specific scheme or has certain obligations like greening, this layer would also include the crop type. Information on crop type is thus not comprehensive.

The fragile area dataset was digitised in 1998 on behalf of the Agriculture Department. There is no defintion of 'fragile' land for the context of this dataset. A fragility index has been applied to the LFA designation since 2003. This is part of the payment mechanism for lfass, it is set at parish level and changes from year to year. It is not known whether the fragile land and fragility index are linked.

In recognition of the different physical and socio-economic characteristics across the regions, the European Union introduced the Less Favoured Area (LFA) designation to support farming where production conditions are difficult. The criteria for LFA designation were first established in European legislation in 1975 (Directive 75/268 EEC and accompanying measures). There are 3 types of LFA's; all in Scotland fall into the category of simple LFA's marked by poor soils and low agricultural income. Scotland's LFA's are defined by: (i) The presence of poor land of poor productivity, which is difficult to cultivate and with a limited potential which cannot be increased except at excessive cost, and which is mainly suitable for extensive livestock farming. (ii) lower than average production, compared to the main indices of economic performance in agriculture. (iii) a low or dwindling population predominantly dependent on agricultural activity, the accelerated decline of which could cause rural depopulation
