HES LiDAR Project: Data procured from Blom Aerofilms Ltd (now part of Cyient Europe Ltd)

Abstract

This LiDAR data was captured by Blom Aerofilms Ltd (now part of Cyient Europe Limited) for Historic Environment Scotland (HES) as part of the Rae Project, the 3D Digital Documentation of HES’ Properties in Care and other HES Projects. The LiDAR data was captured in 2016/17 of the sites and their immediate landscape and processed in LAS format to 0.25m resolution for the following sites: • Eileach-an-Naoimh • Eilean Mor • Holyrood Park • Inch Kenneth • Inchcolm • Iona and Fionnphort, Mull • Inchmahome Priory and associated landward area • Kilmartin Glen * Please Note: Kilmartin Glen data is one complete area encompassing all HES sites here denoted as “Kilmartin Glen” in the above list including the contextual landscape of those sites as defined in the project. Data was supplied as Raw data in *.laz format and 0.25m *.las format and in ascii format as DTM (Terrain) and DSM (Surface) data. Data is delivered here in *.laz and GeoTiff format. It is important to note that only areas required for the specific purposes of the HES project were procured

Lineage

This LiDAR dataset was originally acquired by Blom Aerofilms Ltd (now part of Cyient Europe Limited) on behalf of Historic Environment Scotland from 2016 to 2017. The data was collected and processed using OSGM15 geoid model, OSTN15 horizontal transformation and the Newlyn datum and delivered to HES in the following formats: • Raw *.las format • 25 points per metre, 0.25m point density *.ascii grid format Digital Terrain Model (DTM) • 25 points per metre, 0.25m point density *.ascii grid format Surface Model (DSM). Data was converted into *.laz DTM and DSM with the same point density and GeoTiff for transfer to the Scottish Remote Sensing Portal in 2022 For INSPIRE compliance the quality scope is the entire dataset as listed in this metadata form.
