Historic Environment Polygonisation Standards (Scotland) - Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Scotland - RCAHMS
Historic Environment Polygonisation Standards (Scotland)These documents set out the baseline standards for the recording of Historic Environment polygons in Scotland.The standard comprises three documents:
Part 1 - Historic Environment Polygonisation Standards (Scotland)
These:• Identify what polygons are already being produced in Scotland• define the baseline standards• clarify the semantics of polygonisation vocabulary.
Part 2 - Historic Environment Polygonisation Standards (Scotland)
• provide relevant detail on the UK metadata standard GEMINI 2• provide relevant detail on the Historic Environment data standard MIDAS Heritage • provide definitions and examples for MIDAS Heritage’s required units of information.
Part 3 - Historic Environment Polygonisation Standards(Scotland)
• provide case studies for all of the different polygons classes• map the polygon classes to the MIDAS Heritage data standard.
It is hoped that these documents will provide anyone using or creating polygons with the introductory information they need to help them understand the data they are using. It is also hoped that these documents will facilitate future data exchange.
These are produced in partnership between RCAHMS, Historic Scotland, the Association of Local Government Archaeological Officers: Scotland and the Sites and Monuments Records Forum.
