Abandoned Mines Catalogue

The Abandoned Mines Catalogue is used as a search tool to determine the relevant abandonment plans to a given search criteria, identifying the spatial location and coverage of abandoned mine plans. The collection contains coal and other mineral abandonment plans, covering both surface and deep mining operations, which depict areas of coal and other mineral extraction and the point of entry into these workings. These plans being referenced by graticule squares based on the old County Series Plans.

Scottish Electoral Wards

Local government in Scotland comprises 32 unitary local authorities (council areas), which are divided into wards for electoral purposes.  There are currently a total of 1,226 councilors elected from 355 wards - with each Mainland ward returning 3 or 4 councillors. Island wards may have 1 or 2 member wards. Boundaries Scotland is responsible for recommendations on the definition of ward boundaries, however, the definitive dataset is delineated by Ordnance Survey for inclusion in their BoundaryLine product.

LiDAR for Scotland Phase 3 - LAS

The Scottish Public Sector LiDAR (Phase 3) was initially captured by Fugro for Scottish Power Energy Network (SPEN) in 2015 and 2016 and to monitor their overhead power cable network under their Virtual World Asset Management programme. In addition, two pilots flights were included flown on behalf of the Scottish Border Council project Whiteadder in 2019. The Scottish Government procured this dataset with a contribution from SEPA for public use in 2019. This dataset covers total 11, 772 square kilometres  (note the dataset does not have full national coverage). This dataset reflects the LAS point cloud data with density of 4ppm (points per square metre).

Fissures and Breaklines

This dataset maps fissure and breakline features stored in the National Coal Mining Database. Fissures are a crack or opening in rock or the earth, created by mining in certain circumstances and breaklines are a vertical step in the rock or earth, created when underground mining has caused differential settlement at the surface. Breaklines are usually associated with geological features such as fault lines.

The position of these geological disturbances are captured into the database following claims made under the Coal Mining Subsidence Act 1991 against the Coal Authority (prior to 1994) or the mine operators (post 1994). The polygon represents a 5m buffer around the line of the fissure or breakline indicating the area that may have been affected.

NatureScot Peatland ACTION WFS

Peatland ACTION is a national programme to restore peatlands across Scotland.
It is led and funded by Scottish Government and delivered in partnership with NatureScot, Cairngorms National Park Authority, Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park Authority, Scottish Water, and Forestry & Land Scotland.  
In February 2020, the Scottish Government announced a substantial, multi-annual investment in peatland restoration of more than £250 million up to 2030. Restoring peatlands is one of the most effective ways of locking in carbon; offering a clear nature-based solution to both the climate crisis and biodiversity loss.

Peatland restoration plays a key role in Scotland’s green recovery and is helping deliver a just transition to net-zero by supporting the rural economy through the creation and development of land-based jobs and skills across Scotland.

This service provide information about the progress of restoration activities in Scotland.

LiDAR for Outer Hebrides 2019 - 50cm DTM

A lidar survey of the Outer Hebrides was commissioned by the Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA) to improve the topographic data available for modelling coastal and surface water flood risk.  The aerial survey was carried out by Bluesky International Ltd. between June and September 2019.  The point cloud data was captured at 4 points per square metre (ppm) and processed by Bluesky using the OSGM15 geoid model, OSTN15 horizontal transformation and Newlyn datum. The whole Outer Hebrides survey area had 11 ground control areas with RMSE values from 0.020m to 0.097m.  The data is available as open data under an Open Government Licence.  The 50 cm resolution data covers approximately 1705 km² including the area captured at the higher resolution of 25 cm.  This dataset reflects the Digital Terrain Model (DTM) produced from the point cloud data.

Survey : CLIO/11/1964 (part of CEFAS Historic surveys)

This survey was undertaken by Cefas as part of the CEFAS Historic surveys;

Station and biological data collected during research surveys carried out by 
Cefas (formerly Directorate of Fisheries) in seas around the UK, mostly in the 
North Sea, since 1902. The survey hauls are not laid out systematically as a 
grid, as in current International Bottom Trawl Surveys (IBTS) and are widely 
distributed over (especially) southern and central North Sea areas. Gears and 
protocols were not standardised throughout, due to the long term nature of the 
series. Surveys took place in each season. Data are lacking for the periods of 
both World Wars. In some periods (e.g. the early 1900s), all species caught 
were recorded, whereas in other periods (e.g. 1920s-30s), only the key 
commercial species (e.g., Plaice, Sole and Cod) were recorded systematically. 
Note that some surveys targeted particular species (notably Plaice).

Expert consultation and Epidemiological study results for fish parasites Ceratothoa oestroides, Enteromixum leei and Sparicotyle chrysophrii

This dataset comprises the results of an expert consultation and 
epidemiological study conducted by Cefas and partners, as part of the Parafish 
Control project. The data were collected in order to produce a farm level 
modelling tool which fish farmers can use to assess the potential economic 
impact of parasites *Ceratothoa oestroides*, *Enteromixum leei* and 
*Sparicotyle chrysophrii *at the farm level. The relative risk posed to a 
potential or existing site based on characteristics such as the number of 
supplying hatcheries, and number of farms operating in the area. Site 
management practices such as frequency of mortality removal, use of fallowing, 
and frequency of net changes are also considered, and farmers are offered the 
chance to consider the cost associated with changing their practices to a 
lower risk option.

The underlying data used in the model calculations are yet to be published (as 
of 12/11/2019). They are derived from two connected studies which are 
described briefly below. 

The first of these was an expert consultation. Various risk factors associated 
with the introduction and proliferation of these parasites at aquaculture 
sites were identified and an online questionnaire exploring their impacts in 
relation to these risk factors was completed independently by a group of 
experts (veterinarians, officials etc.). A Delphi style consultation meeting 
was then held, where the questionnaire results were presented by a moderator 
and discussed by the experts, and agreement reached on numerical values.

The second study collected information from 39 mediterranean cage farms. The 
information collected covered the same range of risk factors as the previous 
study (farm location, size, environment, management and husbandry practices) 
together with information on their experience with the parasites (presence, 
associated mortalities and growth retardation, parasite monitoring and 
treatment).

The .csv files contain a subset of all the data collected which are relevant 
to the economic model, the factors having been determined based on statistical 
significance and practical relevance. 

The full datasets from the two studies are not available at present. The data 
and associated reports are Confidential within the Parafish project but are 
being developed into peer-reviewed manuscripts. Links will be provided when 
these are published.

The economic model can be found `here`_.

*Gadus morhua* (Atlantic Cod) stocks in the Barents Sea are currently at 
levels not seen since the 1950s. Causes for the population increase last 
century, and understanding of whether such large numbers will be maintained in 
the future, are unclear. To explore this, we digitised and interrogated 
historical cod catch and diet datasets from the Barents Sea. Data includes 
temporal and spatial information, cod catch data and length distributions, and 
hydrographic data.
