The LIDAR DTM (Digital Terrain Model) Time Stamped Tiles product is an archive of raster elevation data produced by the Environment Agency. Site specific LIDAR surveys have been carried out across England since 1998, with certain areas, such as the coastal zone, being surveyed multiple times. Data is available at varying resolutions of 25cm, 50cm, 1m and 2m, depending on project requirements.

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 GeoTiff rasters in 5km zipfiles, data is presented in metres, referenced to Ordnance Survey Newlyn and data aligned to the OS Grid. All LIDAR data has a vertical accuracy of +/-15cm RMSE. The transformation used on the data is specific to the time period of survey.

Please refer to the metadata index catalogue which show, for any location, what time stamped data is available, the specific dates of survey, resolution of product and what transformation and geoidal model used.

The dataset comprises scanned images of maps and aerial photographs of the Falkland Islands. The original maps are printers films and final paper printed originals of Falkland Islands OS maps, compiled for the Falkland Islands Government and the Foreign and Commonwealth Office by the Overseas Directorate of the Ordnance Survey. The Falkland Islands Government retains copyright interest in the maps. There are no access or usage constraints for BGS staff for BGS purposes. The field slips of geological maps were compiled by BGS under contract to the Falkland Islands Government. Copyright remains with the Falkland Islands Government , but there are no access or usage constraints for BGS staff for BGS purposes. Access to both datasets are restricted to BGS staff.

1:50 000 Scale Colour Raster is Ordnance Survey’s definitive raster product, providing a complete digital view of the popular Landranger® paper map series.

The dataset comprises maps and aerial photographs of the Falkland Islands. The maps are printers films and final paper printed originals of Falkland Islands OS maps, compiled for the Falkland Islands Government and the Foreign and Commonwealth Office by the Overseas Directorate of the Ordnance Survey. They were discarded by the Ordnance Survey around 2004, and offered to BGS for storage on behalf of the Falkland Islands Government. The Falkland Islands Government retains copyright interest in the maps. There are no access or usage constraints for BGS staff for BGS purposes. The aerial photographs and associated paper overlays represent copies of field slips of geological maps that were compiled by BGS under contract to the Falkland Islands Government.

[from EDINA's description of Land-form PANORAMA data: "http://edina.ac.uk/digimap/description/products/panorama.shtml"]

Land-Form PANORAMA is a digital representation of the contours from Ordnance Survey's 1:50 000 scale Landranger maps. Contours are at 10 metre vertical intervals together with breaklines, lakes, coastline and a selection of spot heights to the nearest metre. Digital contour accuracy values are typically better than 3 metres root mean square error.

The Ordnance Survey has used the dataset to derive mathematically a digital terrain-model (DTM) dataset. The dataset consists of a grid of height values at 50 metre intervals interpolated from the contour data. Height values are rounded to the nearest metre. Accuracy varies according to the complexity of the terrain, from 2 metres in a hilly rural area to 3 metres in an urban lowland area. This data is only available for downloading to your machine.

DTM data can be used for terrain analysis of lines of sight and in applications such as visual impact studies, drainage analysis, site planning.

This dataset comprises 2 collections of maps. The facsmile collection contains all the marginalia information from the original map as well as the map itself, while the georectified collection contains just the map with an associated index for locating them. Each collection comprises approximately 101 000 monochrome images at 6-inch (1:10560) scale. Each image is supplied in .tiff format with appropriate ArcView and MapInfo world files, and shows the topography for all areas of England, Wales and Scotland as either quarter or, in some cases, full sheets. The images will cover the approximate epochs 1880's, 1900's, 1910's, 1920's and 1930's, but note that coverage is not countrywide for each epoch. The data was purchased by BGS from Sitescope, who obtained it from three sources - Royal Geographical Society, Trinity College Dublin and the Ordnance Survey. The data is for internal use by BGS staff on projects, and is available via a customised application created for the network GDI enabling users to search for and load the maps of their choice. The dataset will have many uses across all the geoscientific disciplines across which BGS operates, and should be viewed as a valuable addition to the BGS archive. There has been a considerable amount of work done during 2005, 2006 and 2007 to improve the accuracy of the OS Historic Map Collection. All maps should now be located to +- 50m or better. This is the best that can be achieved cost effectively. There are a number of reasons why the maps are inaccurate. Firstly, the original maps are paper and many are over 100 years old. They have not been stored in perfect condition. The paper has become distorted to varying degrees over time. The maps were therefore not accurate before scanning. Secondly, different generations of maps will have used different surveying methods and different spatial referencing systems. The same geographical object will not necessarily be in the same spatial location on subsequent editions. Thirdly, we are discussing maps, not plans. There will be cartographic generalisations which will affect the spatial representation and location of geographic objects. Finally, the georectification was not done in BGS but by the company from whom we purchased the maps. The company no longer exists. We do not know the methodology used for georectification.

This layer of the map based index (GeoIndex) shows the location of available 1:10000 or 1:10560 series geological maps. Since the 1960s the standard large scale map for recording geological information has been the Ordnance Survey (OS) quarter sheet, covering a 5km by 5km area. The maps themselves are supplied in different formats depending on their age and the method of compliation or reproduction used. Only the latest and most up-to-date version is listed.
