LiDAR for Scotland Phase 6 - LAS

The Scottish Public Sector LiDAR (Phase 6) was initially captured by Fugro for Scottish Power Energy Network (SPEN) from 2021 to 2022 to monitor their overhead power cable network under their Virtual World Asset Management programme. The Scottish Government procured this dataset for public use in 2022. This dataset reflects the LAS point cloud data with a density of 4ppm (points per square metre).

Statement

The LiDAR dataset was originally acquired by Fugro on behalf of Scottish Power Energy Network (SPEN) from 2021 to 2022.

The data were purchased by the Scottish Government and delivered in 2022 in the following formats: LAS point cloud files at 4 points per metre, 50cm Digital Terrain Model in ASC grid format and 50cm Digital Surface Model in ASC grid format. The data were collected and processed using OSGM15 geoid model, OSTN15 horizontal transformation and Newlyn datum.
