LiDAR for Scotland Phase 4 - LAS
The Scottish Public Sector LiDAR (Phase 4) was initially captured by Fugro for Scottish Power Energy Network (SPEN) from 2017 to 2019 to monitor their overhead power cable network under their Virtual World Asset Management programme. The Scottish Government procured this dataset for public use in 2020. This dataset covers total 17,945 square kilometres (note the dataset does not have full national coverage). This dataset reflects the LAS point cloud data with a density of 4ppm (points per square metre).

The LiDAR dataset was originally acquired by Fugro on behalf of Scottish Power Energy Network (SPEN) from 2017 to 2019. The data were purchased by the Scottish Government and delivered in 2020 in the following formats: LAS point cloud files at 4 points per metre, 50cm Digital Terrain Model in ASC grid format and 50cm Digital Surface Model in ASC grid format. The data were collected and processed using OSGM15 geoid model, OSTN15 horizontal transformation and Newlyn datum.
