Land-Form PANORAMA is a digital elevation dataset for Great Britain: Two versions of the dataset exist: one vector-dataset that provides height contours with a 10 m vertical spacing and one gridded dataset with a grid-spacing of 50m. The resolution of the dataset corresponds to a 1:50000 mapping. Please note that the dataset is unmaintained.

Dataset Overview

  • Spatial Coverage: The whole of Great Britain (but not including Northern Ireland).
  • Resolutions:
    • Gridded-version: 50m grid spacing
    • Contour-version; 10m contour spacing.
  • Data-type: Digital Terrain Model (DTM)
  • Coordinate system:
    • Horizontal: British National Grid (EPSG: 27700) in original data
    • Vertical: Ordnance Datum Newlyn (EPSG: 5701)
  • Version: Two versions are available with windPRO: 2018 and 2014
  • Vertical Accuracy: N/A

Availability in WindPRO

The data is available from the WindPRO online services. The data can be accessed from the online-services in the following objects:

  • Line Object (with purpose to height contour lines)
  • Elevation Grid Object

Licence and Acknowledgement

The data is distributed according to the OS OpenData terms . Please take proper care to add proper atribution in order to acknowledge the source of information. Typically, this is done by adding the following statement to your report-picture or map:
