1 What types of map data would be useful? Highly detailed topographic vector data. Building heights data to assess the visual impact of the development. A less detailed vector map product, to extract transport network details. Raster maps to show site location and use as backdrop maps, at two different scales - 1:10,000 and around 1:200,000. Your task: 1.Login to Digimap. 2.Select Ordnance Survey > Data Download 3.Order these map data products – select format, layers and dates in the basket! For Stratford Marsh (Tower Hamlets) area of East London: OS MasterMap Topography - File Geodatabase format OS MasterMap Building Height Attributes– CSV format OS Street View backdrop mapping 1:250000 Raster backdrop mapping OS Terrain 50 DTM Meridian 2 Tiles – DXF format In the basket, name your order Claire Claire is in the final year of a BA in Human Geography at Kingston University.

2 What types of map data would be useful? Westminster parliamentary constituency boundaries. Shape file format is preferred. Small scale (lower level of detail) background map, perhaps 1:250000 scale, to give context to the boundaries, showing the major cities and geographical features within the UK. Your task: 1.Login to Digimap 2.Select Ordnance Survey > Data Download 3.Order these map data products - select format, layers and dates in the basket! For the whole of Great Britain: 1:250000 Raster backdrop mapping Boundary Line – Shape file format, Westminster Constituency boundaries layer only In the basket, give your order the name Amy Amy is studying for a BA in Politics and Sociology at Manchester University. For her final year dissertation she wants to explore differences in which parties were voted for at the last UK General Election. Amy has downloaded election results from the 2010 UK General Election from the Electoral Commission. She wants to analyse these results and creating maps displaying the results will help her do this. Amy wants to create: a map showing parliamentary constituency areas coloured according to which party won a map showing the split of the vote for selected parliamentary constituencies in the UK.

Her undergraduate dissertation topic is looking at the process of urban regeneration for the Olympic Park site in East London. Dave is studying for an MSc in Environmental Science at the University of Leeds. His dissertation is investigating the potential impact of proposed wind farms in Cumbria on the surrounding ecology. Dave has collected ecological data at the proposed sites to feed into his 3D GIS model of the sites and surrounding areas. He also has the coordinates of both proposed and existing wind farm sites. Dave wants to create: a map showing Cumbria in the context of the North of England. a map showing the location of the proposed wind farms. Digital Terrain Models, plus contour maps, to assess where the proposed sites can be seen in the surrounding area. Map images: © Crown Copyright and Database Right 2015.
