Average Confidence Level of Heat Demand Estimates (1km Grid) - Scotland

The Scotland Heat Map provides estimates of heat demand for all properties in Scotland. To indicate reliability, each estimate is assigned a confidence level from 1 to 5. Level 1 is least reliable and level 5 most. This is mainly determined by the presence of information that would directly impact on heat demand in the estimate’s source data. For example, estimates based on data that includes building type, age and floor area would be more reliable than estimates based solely on floor area derived from mapping data. This raster dataset gives the average (mean) confidence level of properties within 1km x 1km grid squares covering all of Scotland.

The Scotland Heat Map is a tool to help plan for the reduction of carbon emissions from heat in buildings. Average confidence level is an indicator of reliability of the heat demand estimates within an area and allows planners to decide whether they meet their needs. The map is produced by the Scottish Government. The most recent version is the Scotland Heat Map 2022, which was released to local authorities in November 2023.

苏格兰热力图数据集提供了苏格兰所有房产的热需求估算。为确保可靠性，每个估算值均被赋予一个从1到5的置信水平。1级为最不可靠，5级为最可靠。这主要取决于估算源数据中是否包含直接影响热需求的直接信息。例如，基于包括建筑类型、年龄和建筑面积的数据的估算比仅基于地图数据中建筑面积的估算更为可靠。该栅格数据集提供了覆盖整个苏格兰的1km x 1km网格方格内房产的平均（均值）置信水平。苏格兰热力图是一款辅助规划建筑领域碳减排的工具。平均置信水平是区域内热需求估算可靠性的指标，使得规划者能够判断其是否符合需求。该图由苏格兰政府制作。最新版本为2022年苏格兰热力图，已于2023年11月发布给地方当局。更多详细信息可在苏格兰政府网站上找到：https://www.gov.scot/publications/scotland-heat-map-documents/。
