license

Other constraints

Either : (i) the dataset has not been formally approved by BGS for access and use by external clients under license; and / or (ii) the dataset contains 3rd party data or information obtained by BGS under terms and conditions that must be consulted before the dataset can be provided to, or accessed by, BGS staff or external clients. Refer to the BGS staff member responsible for the creation of the dataset if further advice is required. He / she should be familiar with the composition of the dataset, particularly with regard to 3rd party IPR contained in it, and any resultant access restrictions. This staff member should revert to the IPR Section (IPR@bgs.ac.uk) for advice, should the position not be clear.

Statement

The Corrosivity (Ferrosu) dataset comprises a series of layers (water content, pH, redox, resistivity and sulphates/sulphides) where the ‘potential for corrosion’ of each of the properties is scored. The separate GIS property layers contain the scores for each property according to the Cast Iron Pipe Research Association rating (Table 1). These are then combined to give an overall corrosion rating. By having separate layers as well as a combined score layer, the user can see which of the corrosion causing factors is/are detrimental so appropriate engineering remedies can be undertaken if required. It also allows for easier and better data checking.
