Arup Review Of Mining Instability In Great Britain

The data shows the extent of mining within Great Britain it was captured in 1990 by OVE ARUP on behalf of the Department of Environment as a series of paper maps and no updates have been carried out. The data has been converted to a digital format (ESRI shape file) by BGS in 1995. The original scale of the data was 1km square. The dataset has limited attribution indicating type i.e. metalliferous, rock, coal, deneholes (chalk), evaporites or ironstone, and whether definitive evidence was found. Although every effort has been made to attribute the digital data to the original maps some inconstancies may have arisen due to data conversion process.本数据集展示了大不列颠境内的采矿活动范围，该数据由OVE ARUP于1990年代表英国环境部以纸质地图系列的形式采集，且未曾进行过任何更新。1995年，英国地质调查局（BGS）将该数据转换为数字化格式（ESRI形状文件，ESRI shape file）。该数据的原始比例尺为1平方千米格网。本数据集仅包含有限的属性标注信息，可指示采矿类型，具体包括金属矿、岩石、煤炭、白垩矿坑（deneholes）、蒸发岩矿以及铁矿石，同时标注是否发现了确定性开采证据。尽管已尽最大努力将数字化数据匹配至原始纸质地图，但因数据转换流程的原因，仍可能存在部分不一致之处。
