Kenfig Dune Rejuvenation Trials Topographic Survey Data (2012 - 2015)
The purpose of this data capture was to assess the topographic mobility of the Kenfig National Nature Reserve sand dunes and to monitor the sand dune rejuvenation. Kenfig sand dune rejuvenation trails began in December 2012. The dataset consists of points were topographic elevations were determined, many of which were on profile lines which were profile lines. Key features were defined based on the limits. These features included ridge crests, standing water, new vegetation growth and the position of the frontal sand dunes.

Elevation points were determined using Leica RTK GPS SmartRover equipment The ground survey was conducted using a ‘base and rover’ surveying technique. The first two surveys were carried out using a Leica Viva GPS SmartRover GS15 Receiver mounted on a 2 m pole and a Leica Viva CS15 GNSS Field Controller. The surveys made use of an RTK control station at Mumbles Head. A position for the base station was chosen towards the centre of the site, on a high point to maximise potential for a good quality mobile telephone signal (for GPRS corrections). Two wooden posts were inserted into the ground to act as local temporary benchmarks. Benchmark 2 being determined, to assess survey accuracy and precision. Accuracy was generally very good with measurements of elevation on average being accurate to better than 10 mm, and measurements of precision on average being better than 7 mm.
