Terrestrial Laser Scan data (NERC grant NE/P000010/1)

Terrestrial laser scanning data of the slopes above the A83 Rest and Be Thankful collected by a Riegl LMS Z620i instrument in 2016 after Storms Desmond and Frank from 3 positions. These data are scanner centric coordinates which the end-user needs to align and (if required) align into a global coordinate system. Data are in raw format, supplied as .las with scaled intensity included.

Supplemental Information

These data are in a local (scanner centric) coordinate system to ensure no transformation errors are induced into alignments prior to external usage. The spatial extent is best described as the slopes above the A83 landslide defences at the Rest and Be Thankful, Argyle and Bute, Scotland.

Statement

Data were collected from 3 positions to allow full slope coverage. Each scan position has multiple scans: an initial coarse panorama, then several detailed scans of areas of interest. For each position scans have been merged as they share the same scanner centric coordinate system.
