Emley Moor · 1969–71: Ove Arup and Partners’ tapered concrete landmark. This heritage envelope uses Historic England’s 274 m concrete shaft and 56 m aerial casing: 330 m overall. Base diameter 24.4 m, shaft-top diameter 6.5 m. Gallery, windows, joints and lights are approximate.
Historic configuration: The antenna was subsequently altered. Published overall heights conflict; this model shows the documented heritage envelope, not a verified current antenna arrangement. The temporary mast, whose dismantling began in 2023, is omitted. Historic LiDAR may still contain it and other removed objects.
Ground & obstructions: Environment Agency 1 m composite DTM, first-return DSM and Vegetation Object Model, downloaded 3 October 2026. Composite surveys are historic; local acquisition date has not been isolated. These are not live conditions.
Terrain resolution: True-scale ground shown at 20 m spacing. Profiles use 5 m mean ground and maximum surface-height cells, sampled every ≤2.5 m. Missing surface cells remain unknown.
Buildings & vegetation: Building footprints and roads from OpenStreetMap. Building height is estimated from LiDAR within each footprint where available; fallback heights are identified in the data. Canopy is reconstructed as 10 m inner / 20 m outer volumes from vegetation-height cells. Tree species and individual stems are not known. Other masts are not reconstructed.
Coordinates: OSGB British National Grid, metres. Origin E422296 N412887. X east, Y elevation above Ordnance Datum, −Z grid north. Height and bearing controls are hypothetical test parameters.
