Artificial Coastal Defences Buffer
Artificial sea front defences were digitised around the coast of Scotland, for use in informing on pre-existing coastal protection and in limiting the amount of erosion predicted as part of the Dynamic Coast FutureCoast shorelines.This dataset is the 25m buffer inland of these defence lines.More information is available within Technical Summary WS2 via www.DynamicCoast.com/reports

- Statement
-
High resolution aerial imagery was used to identify and manually digitise artificial sea front defences (sea walls, harbours, rock armour, gabions) as lines in planform view. Pre-existing coastal defence datasets sourced from participating local authorities were also combined with the manually digitised lines. This dataset is the left hand side buffer of those defence lines, at a distance of 25m inland.
