\[1] No percentage value for Water features.&#x20;

\[2] Other features are included in scope where they have a natural land cover, i.e.  areas under construction are included because they are generally sand or bare earth until construction is complete. ‘Constructed’ or ‘Made’ features are out of scope.&#x20;

\[3] Only features above the Mean High Water (Springs) line have a percentage value.&#x20;

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.os.uk/osngd/using-os-ngd-data/os-ngd-land-cover-enhancements/summary.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
