Kingston Town Centre Area Action Plan

An Area Action Plan (AAP) is a Development Plan Document (DPD) that provides specific planning policy and guidance for an area where significant regeneration or investment needs to be managed. AAPs address the specific challenges of an area and to specify the required land uses in particular locations and identify key strategic interventions. AAPs have a strong focus on delivery and implementation, and form a statutory component of the Local Development Framework (LDF). This is the boundary of Kingston Town Centre for the purposes of applying planning policy set out within the Kingston Town Centre Area Action Plan (adopted July 2008).

Local Nature Reserves in The Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames

Local nature reserve or LNR is a designation for nature reserves in Great Britain. The designation has its origin in the recommendations of the Wild Life Conservation Special Committee which established the framework for nature conservation in the United Kingdom and suggested a national suite of protected areas comprising national nature reserves, conservation areas (which incorporated suggestions for Sites of Special Scientific Interest), national parks, geological monuments, local nature reserves and local educational nature reserves. This dataset shows the nine Local Nature Reserves in the Borough. They are fragments of semi-natural vegetation and each site presents a set of particular features that gives Kingston a mosaic of natural habitats.

Section 52 and 106 Agreements

Planning obligations (section 52 and 106 agreements) are linked to a planning application decision, made either by the local planning authority or by the Planning Inspectorate in the case of an appeal against a refusal of planning permission. The planning obligation relates to the land within the planning application, rather than the person or organisation that develops the land. It is, therefore, recorded as a land charge, and the obligations under it run with the land ownership until they are fully complied with, often indefinitely.

Radioactive Substances Register

This dataset is static as of April 2010. The data is no longer updated. The data has been superceded by a new dataset, the metadata for which can be found here: https://www.data.gov.uk/dataset/f031cf17-db5b-472c-ae50-dbb4d5c0e8e6/radioactive-substances-permits-corporate-entities
 
This record is for Approval for Access product AfA027. The Radioactive Substances Act 1993 (RSA 93) regulates the keeping and use of radioactive materials, and the disposal and accumulation of radioactive waste. Any person who keeps or uses radioactive material must either be registered or subject to an exemption.
In addition to registration of premises, special provisions are made for mobile radioactive apparatus. Such equipment must be registered wherever it is kept, used, lent or hired, unless covered by an exemption.
Any person who disposes of radioactive waste (or accumulates such waste for disposal) must either be authorised or subject to an exemption. The Environment Agency regulates these registrations and authorisations.
The Radioactive Substances Register data is provided in 3 tables: 
Active_RAS_Auths contains details of active authorisations, 
Active_RAS_Regs contains active registrations All_RAS_Auths_and_Regs contains details of all authorisation and registration applications, as well as effective, altered and revoked permissions. 
The 'Active' tables are subsets of the 'All' table. Attribution statement: © Environment Agency copyright and/or database right 2015. All rights reserved.

LIDAR Composite DSM 2017 - 50cm

This dataset is no longer available on the Data Services Platform.
New version of the LIDAR Composite DSM data is available here:
https://environment.data.gov.uk/searchresults;query=lidar%20composite%202020;searchtype=All;page=1;pagesize=20;orderby=Relevancy

The LIDAR Composite DSM (Digital Surface Model) is a raster elevation model covering areas of England at 50cm spatial resolution. Produced by the Environment Agency in 2017, this dataset is derived from a combination of our full time stamped archive, which has been merged and re-sampled to give the best possible coverage. Where repeat surveys have been undertaken the newest, best resolution data is used. The composite is updated on an annual basis to include the latest surveys.

The DSM (Digital Surface Model) is produced from the last return LIDAR signal and includes heights of objects, such as vehicles, buildings and vegetation, as well as the terrain surface. Available to download as ASCII files in 5km grids, data is presented in metres, referenced to Ordinance Survey Newlyn, using the OSTN’15 transformation. All LIDAR data has a vertical accuracy of +/-15cm RMSE. A tinted shaded relief, which is an image showing what LIDAR looks like when loaded into specialist software, is also available as a WMS feed. You can also download survey index files which shows, for any location, what Time Stamped survey went into the production of the LIDAR composite.

Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) is an airborne mapping technique, which uses a laser to measure the distance between the aircraft and the ground. Up to 500,000 measurements per second are made of the ground, allowing highly detailed terrain models to be generated at spatial resolutions of between 25cm and 2 metres. The Environment Agency’s open data LIDAR archives includes the Point Cloud data, and derived raster surface models of survey specific areas and composites of the best data available in any location.

NPTG a database of localities (cities, towns, villages and other settlements) in Great Britain.  It provides a common frame of reference for the National Public Access Nodes (NaPTAN) schema. 
The appropriate naming and geospatial location of towns and places is vital for providing effective place and stop finding in on-line journey planners and other passenger information systems. Names are those that would be used by the people that reside or work in that place; the geospatial location is selected to optimise journey planning and other passenger information usage.
The NPTG XML schema is used to distribute topographic data from the NPTG database to the local Administrative Areas who administer NaPTAN data, as well as other downstream Public Transport Information systems such as journey planners.

New version of the LIDAR Composite DSM data is available here:
https://environment.data.gov.uk/searchresults;query=lidar%20composite%202020;searchtype=All;page=1;pagesize=20;orderby=Relevancy

The LIDAR Composite DTM (Digital Terrain Model) is a raster elevation model covering ~75% of England at 2m spatial resolution. Produced by the Environment Agency in 2017, this dataset is derived from a combination of our full time stamped archive, which has been merged and re-sampled to give the best possible coverage. Where repeat surveys have been undertaken the newest, best resolution data is used. The composite is updated on an annual basis to include the latest surveys.

The DTM (Digital Terrain Model) is produced from the last return LIDAR signal. We remove surface objects from the Digital Surface Model (DSM), using bespoke algorithms and manual editing of the data, to produce a terrain model of just the surface. Available to download as ASCII files in 5km grids, data is presented in metres, referenced to Ordinance Survey Newlyn, using the OSTN’15 transformation. All LIDAR data has a vertical accuracy of +/-15cm RMSE. A tinted shaded relief, which is an image showing what LIDAR looks like when loaded into specialist software, is also available as a WMS feed.
