A forum formed in order to implement the recommendations of the Baker Report (1999) in Scotland’s 18 SMRs.

SNHD#

Selected National Heritage Dataset of archaeological sites across England used by Natural England to pre-populate maps for Environmental Stewardship. This dataset was created in early 2005 and contained a carefully selected set of sites from across England, as recorded in the NMR, together with datasets supplied from nine participating HERs. The dataset was replaced by SHINE in 2009

Spatial analysis#

This is the process of applying analytical techniques to geographically referenced datasets to extract or generate new geographical information. Spatial analysis may be used to model complex geographical interactions and is useful for investigating site suitability and predicting future events. Overall, analytical techniques may be complex, but are usually made up of a combination of simpler techniques applied in an appropriate order.
