Heat flow United Kingdom version 1
The dataset portrays heat flow as a continuous modelled surface, interpolated between observation points. Onshore coverage is provided for England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. The British Geological Survey (BGS) Heat flow dataset version 1 (United Kingdom) is derived from a catalogue of legacy heat flow observations and ground-heat modelling. Heat flow data is typically used to determine temperatures beneath the ground surface, and model how much thermal energy may be stored in or reco
