Metadata: 2010, RPS, Zone 8 - Bristol Channel Atlantic Array, Visual Assessment
Abstract:
A visual assessment of the proposed Atlantic Array offshore wind farm and proposed onshore substation at Alverdiscott was conducted by RPS Ltd. This series contains maps associated with this assessment, which show the visual impact of the proposed wind farm on the Bristol Channel coastline (turbine heights of both 165m and 220m were considered), and Zones of Theoretical Visibility (ZTV) for the proposed substation. The visual impact on surrounding designated areas was also mapped.

| Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 5242 |
| Title | The title is used to provide a brief and precise description of the dataset such as 'Date', 'Originating organisation/programme', 'Location' and 'Type of survey'. All acronyms and abbreviations should be reproduced in full. | 2010, RPS, Zone 8 - Bristol Channel Atlantic Array, Visual Assessment |
| File Identifier | The File Identifier is a code, preferably a GUID, that is globally unique and remains with the same metadata record even if the record is edited or transferred between portals or tools. | aeab236b5d20c79d6ee03c4f152d4755 |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | AA_Offshore_Turbines_ZTV_1 |
| Resource type | The resource type will likely be a dataset but could also be a series (collection of datasets with a common specification) or a service. | series |
| Start date | This describes the date the resource starts. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2010-07-02 |
| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2010-07-09 |
| Spatial resolution | This describes the spatial resolution of the dataset or the spatial limitations of the service. | 10 |
| Spatial resolution unit | This describes the unit of spatial resolution which for distance must be metres. | http://standards.iso.org/ittf/PubliclyAvailableStandards/ISO_19139_Schemas/resources/uom/gmxUom.xml#m |
| Frequency of updates | This describes the frequency with which the resource is modified or updated i.e. a monitoring programme that samples once per year has a frequency that is described as 'annually'. | asNeeded |

| Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | Maps were created using relatively simple Geographical Information System (GIS) Modelling tools. The data the maps were based on is taken from Ordnance Survey Mapping and digital terrain models (DTMs). Additional information on environmentally designated areas was taken from data supplied by a reputable specialist mapping data supplier. |
