Dataset
Daily Transects and Areas from Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) scans of an eroding soft cliff at Happisburgh, UK (April-December 2019).
Abstract
This dataset contains 236 transects and areas point-cloud elevation and colour intensity data collected daily along a 450 metre coastal stretch at Happisburgh, UK, over a time span of 9 months (April 6, 2019 to December 23, 2019). Included are subsets of these point-clouds, named transects and grids. Scans were taken approximately daily, and on some days only one scanner was run resulting in half-size scans. A single FARO S350 LiDAR scanner was placed at two fixed locations on the beach, spaced 178 metres alongshore and between 30 to 40 metres from the 10 metre high cliff. The duration of the scanning at each location was around 30 minutes. These data were collected to better understand the dynamic of beach-cliff and shore platform interaction along soft cliffed coasts. The shapefiles of the transects and areas are also included for a more complete description. ScanLAB Projects Ltd were responsible for the collection of the data, along with the British Geological Survey (BGS), funded by the UK Natural Environment Research Council (NE/M004996/1; BLUE-coast project).
