1 recomendación•454 vistas
Landmap is funded by the Joint Information Systems Committee (JISC) and is a Mimas (National Data Center, based at the University of Manchester) hosted service. Providing high quality spatial datasets is the main aim of the service enhanced with a diverse range of learning materials to support their use.

- 3. Our Purpose Providing web-based access to spatial data and learning materials for UK HE and FE Landmap hosts a combination of remotely-sensed imagery and spatial information unique in UK academia. Datasets are purchased from leading data providers licenses are negotiated and supplied to the academic community for free. In many cases we add value to data before distribution.

- 8. Technological Innovation Open Geospatial Standards (OGC) provide the bedrock of our web delivery Landmap Kaia is a single access point for previewing our data collections via Web Map Service (WMS): Landmap Kaia provides a portal for searching and previewing metadata through the Catalog Service for the Web (CS-W) Downloading data from our collections 1) Download Original Data (for all data) 2) Download a subset of the data via Web Coverage Service (WCS) 3) Extract Features – download as GML, KML or Shapefile

- Optical &Thermal Collection: IncludesorthorectifiedLandsat 4/5; Landsat 7 and SPOT imagery, MediterraeanLandsat data, Colour Infrared; TopSat, Modern and Historic Aerial Photography; Thermal imagery. This data can be used to map vegetation cover, land use, crop health, and coastal sediment patternsElevation Collection: Includes 75m SRTM, 25m Landmap DTM, LiDAR data for many urban conurbations in the UK; 5m Bluesky DTM for England and Wales. This data can be used to create 3D models, model the effect of aspect on ecology.
- RadarCollection: Includes ERS 1; ERS 2; ENVISAT ASAR (Image Mode, Alternating Polarisation, Wide Swath. Use Radar for regular imagery updates to monitor an area without the worry of cloud cover e.g. the intertidal beds of Morecambe BayFeature Collection: Includes Building Heights and Building Class data for the main conurbations in the UK. The data (in shapefile format) can be easily integrated into a GIS or Image Processing package e.g. Modelling the urban heat island effect
