Mining Hazard (not including coal) in Great Britain for Sustainable Underground Drainage

The dataset uses the outline of the mining hazard not including coal in Great Britain data but has been re-attributed to reflect the potential affect of underground drainage. It excludes areas of Coal mining as these are covered by the Coal Authority and therefore are not included in this dataset. It has been reattributed from the A-E rating scale indicating the increasing likelihood of an underground mining hazard to a 1-4 scale identifying the likelihood of susceptibility to infiltration. The data was created using expert knowledge to reattribute the original mining area polygons.

Statement
The data set is directly derived from the Mining Hazard not including coal in Great Britain v5 data. It relies of the defined outline of the known mining areas in Great Britain which are re-attributed for the sole evaluation of infiltration rates based on expert knowledge. The source Mining Hazard not including coal in GB dataset was derived from a diverse range of material. It was constructed using GIS software via seven individual data layers each of which was created either from DigMap GB 50k bedrock data, information from literature and local and expert knowledge. The data is compiled into a series of individual data layers which undergo a series of GIS data processes before being combined and edited into a single final data layer. Information is then checked by geologists with detailed local knowledge.
