- Data Quality
- Maps of mining activities generated by Vera De Cauwer as part of the BCLME Physical mapping project was the base data source. The data are treated in a binary manner, where 5' grid cells containing either mining or salt production are coded with a 1, and where these activities are absent, it is coded as 0.
