Grants for SMR enhancement from Historic Scotland currently prioritise fulfilment of PASTMAP objectives. Historic Scotland may also provide initial start-up funds for the provision of an archaeological service at a Local Authority that was previously without one.

At any one time, [Historic England|Glossary#Historic England|target='_blank'], Cadw and Historic Scotland may be involved in a number of projects and programmes which are developed in response to research and knowledge of the resource. Many of these involve partnerships with local authorities and others and some carry funding and offer opportunities to enhance HERs (either through work carried out in-house by HERs or from data available from the [Historic England|Glossary#Historic England|target='_blank']/NMRS).

Historic Scotland commissions the Burgh surveys series. The main objective of the Burgh surveys is to identify those areas, which are of archaeological and historic interest and require sensitive treatment in the event of proposed development. However the series is also of more general interest in that it examines the geography and topography of each town, its historic buildings and the origins of its street names.

!Historic Land Use Assessment (HLAMAP) Scotland
The Historic Land-use Assessment by the RCAHMS is an analysis of past and present land-use. HLAMAP is a web-based presentation of this data that allows the user to view the data by Historic Land-use Type, Period or Category as well as by Relict Period, and to print out a report of any selected area. To date 80 per cent of Scotland has been analysed. As with HLC in England and Wales, HLAMAP can help to inform land management initiatives such as [Rural Development Programme|http://www.scotland.gov.uk/Topics/farmingrural/SRDP](Scotland).

The Scottish Wetlands Archaeological Database (SWAD) is an Historic Scotland (HS) commissioned project designed primarily to produce a fuller understanding of the potential of Scottish wetland archaeology. As it now stands there are over 6,000 records in the database. [http://www.geo.ed.ac.uk/swad/|http://www.geo.ed.ac.uk/swad/]

Where possible, HER officers should aim to work with local societies to agree a standard recording form that incorporates the HER's core standards and reflects national data standards (in Scotland ASPIRE compliant). Ideally, guidance should be offered to society members on how to complete the recording forms, possibly through training days. HER officers should allow time to check the quality of information while it is being collected. In England and Scotland Local Societies have received grants to undertake archaeological projects from the Local Heritage Initiative fund, but this scheme has now come to an end. These grants have enabled local groups and HER staff to work together on enhancement projects. For an example of this see Section [D.6.2|http://archaeologydataservice.ac.uk/ifp/Wiki.jsp?page=SectionD.6#section-SectionD.6-D.6.2ProvidingHistoricMappingForTheHERTheWorcestershireTitheMapProject].

An important consideration for HERs is how far they will be able to specify the format in which any information is to be deposited with them. Ideally, thematic projects would collect data in accordance with the data standards laid out in MIDAS and use the reference-data lists that make up INSCRIPTION (ASPIRE in Scotland). This general principle has already been achieved for a number of projects (undertaken with collaboration from [Historic England|Glossary#Historic England|target='_blank'], the NMRs, CBA, the MDA and ADS) which plan to offer digital data to (or have already made their data available to) to HERS, for example:
