The Standing Waters Database is due to be decomissioned on 11th July 2025. A replacment application is being built.
The Standing Waters Sample Points dataset is a GIS dataset of survey sample locations used during the course of the Scottish Loch Survey Project. The statutory nature conservation agencies in Scotland, England and Wales have a long history of carrying out routine aquatic plant (macrophyte) surveys of lakes.

The Standing Waters database contains macrophyte species lists for each surveyed lake; mainly vascular plants, but also charophytes and filamentous algae. At each lake, macrophytes were recorded on a DAFOR scale of abundance (dominant, abundant, frequent, occasional or rare), and sketch maps were drawn to show the distribution of macrophytes around the lake. (These sketch maps are stored within the database as PDF files.)
Surveyors also took a water sample providing water chemistry data for pH, alkalinity and conductivity. Other details such as surface area, altitude and links to designated site information are also provided. Using this dataset, a classification of British lakes has also been developed, based upon the composition of their macrophyte communities. Eleven distinct lake groups (A-J) have been identified, and full descriptions of these are available on the Lake Group page

The Standing Waters Sample Points dataset are x,y co-ordinates representing individual survey locations.
