Title

Granite lineament data, Land's End and immediate adjacent offshore area

Abstract

Lineaments from the Land's End Granite, and immediately adjacent offshore areas, derived from the analysis of LiDAR, bathymetry and aerial photography as detailed in the publication: Yeomans, C.M., Claridge, H., Hudson, A.J.L., Shail, R.K., Willems, C., Eyre, M. and Harker, C. 2023. A single multi-scale and multi-sourced semi-automated lineament detection technique for detailed structural mapping with applications to geothermal energy exploration. Quarterly Journal of Engineering Geology and Hydrogeology, DOI:10.1144/qjegh2022-051. The analysis was undertaken to develop and evaluate methodologies for the assessment of potential fracture-controlled geothermal reservoirs.

Lineage

The analysis of source data was undertaken as detailed in Yeomans et al. (2023). The LiDAR and bathymetry data were analysed together using a modified version of the algorithm developed in: Yeomans, C.M., Middleton, M., Shail, R.K., Grebby, S. and Lusty, P.A.J. 2018. Integrated Object-Based Image Analysis for semi-automated geological lineament detection in Southwest England, Computers and Geosciences, volume 123, pages 137-148, DOI:10.1016/j.cageo.2018.11.005. Chris Yeomans completed the automated analysis and Alex Hudson manually mapped the offshore lineaments from bathymetric data
