Quarry Point Terrain Scans

Catalog

Sets are listed newest first. Sizes are the total for all parts of a set, including the manifest and any processed derivatives published alongside the raw capture.

Quarry Point north face

Point cloud, mesh, texture set · 86.4 GB · 37 parts

Nine scan positions registered into one cloud covering the full working face and the bench above it. Average point spacing is 4 mm on the face and coarser on the approach road, which was captured only to tie the positions together. The decimated mesh is included because it is the geometry the published volume figures were measured from.

Capture
Terrestrial, nine positions, two sessions
Point spacing
4 mm average on the face
Includes
Registered cloud, decimated mesh, 8K textures, control point list

Ferrier cliff line

Point cloud, orthophoto · 41.2 GB · 19 parts

A 2.4 km shoreline section captured in two passes at different tide levels, so the lower cliff face is covered in one pass and the upper in both. The two passes are published separately as well as merged, since the merge discards some overlapping returns.

Capture
Airborne, two passes
Point spacing
35 mm average
Includes
Both passes, merged cloud, orthophoto, flight lines

Ashwell pit floor

Mesh, texture set · 12.8 GB · 7 parts

Pit floor and haul ramp as a watertight mesh. Published with the control point list so the mesh can be re-georeferenced if it is brought into a different coordinate system. No raw cloud for this one: the capture was commissioned as a mesh deliverable.

Capture
Terrestrial, four positions
Mesh
Watertight, 11.4 M triangles
Includes
Mesh, 8K texture pages, control point list

Brandling spoil heaps

Point cloud · 28.0 GB · 13 parts

Four heaps captured in one session for volume estimation. Both the unfiltered cloud and the vegetation-classified version are published, because the classification is a judgement call and reusers may want to redo it with their own thresholds.

Capture
Airborne, single pass
Point spacing
50 mm average
Includes
Unfiltered cloud, classified cloud, ground surface

Lindow bank re-capture

Point cloud, difference surface · 23.6 GB · 11 parts

Re-capture of a bank section first scanned two years earlier, published together with the difference surface between the two epochs. The earlier set stays available unchanged so the difference can be recomputed independently.

Capture
Terrestrial, six positions
Point spacing
8 mm average
Includes
Registered cloud, difference surface, earlier epoch reference
