Cycling Network - Scotland

Many local authorities capture details of the cycle network within their jurisdiction. These may be lanes along roads or segregated paths away from vehicles. This dataset attempts to pull anything that local authorities can provide to us together into a national network. It may be missing details held by other national organisations.


We have now also added the Scottish part of SUSTRANS' National Cycle Network dataset (which will now be available via an OGC web service for the first time).


Sustrans National Cycle Network data contains Ordnance Survey data (© Crown copyright and database rights (2018)).

Statement

This dataset was amalgamated, optimised and published by the Spatial hub.


The following quality assurance checks and corrections are carried out on the data:

- Lines are dissolved/ aggregated by key name and local authority.

- The minimum line length allowed in the data is 1 metre

- Checks for invalid geometry types

- The maximum angle for any spikes is 3 degrees

- Any duplicate geometry is removed from the data

- Duplicate key names for lines are not removed

- Lines with no key names are not removed

- Checks for basic geometry i.e. self-intersection

- Where a line overlaps a local authority boundary (or any other input data) it is not altered.

- Where a line has a gap of up to 1m to another line, it is snapped to it.
