- Statement
- The dataset is the result of predictive numerical modelling of seabed sediment composition across the UKCS. The model employs a DRF approach, utilising more than 38,000 sediment samples and a series of physical covariates to help constrain the occurrence and distribution of sediment. Refer to ‘Data Listing’ for sources of the data. The model outputs are both quantitatively and qualitatively assessed and reconfigured based on QA, to produce maps across the UKCS at a spatial resolution of c. 115 m. The data, methods, analysis and map products are further described within the User Guide for the dataset (OR/25/040). The dataset and accompanying reports are credited to Dayton Dove for the project conception, geological QA and selection of model co-variates; Ben Marchant and Matthew Paice (ex-BGS) for modelling, development and refinement; Mary Mowat for data compilation and management.
