Climate Change & Coastal Heritage
CI 1 - GOOD PRACTICE GUIDANCE
The CHERISH team will provide integrated guidance on how to survey and record heritage sites threatened by climate change in targeted coastal communities, using the latest innovative technologies and remote sensing techniques.
CI 2 - Fixed survey markers
A key legacy of the operation, CHERISH will provide the first 3D baseline fixed survey points and data for selected heritage assets specifically aimed at future monitoring of climate change.
CI 3 - ENHANCED HISTORIC ENVIRONMENT DATA
Through its activities, CHERISH will enhance and update national historic environment datasets, which help to inform priority lists for statutory designation.
CI 4 - enhanced palaeoenvironmental data
CHERISH will generate multi-proxy palaeoenvironmental data within a robust chronological framework, developed from selected locations to reconstruct past environments and inform future adaptation strategies.
CI 5 - Seamless onshore/offshore data
A number of innovative digital ‘real maps’ derived from LiDAR and photogrammetry, will provide 3D data geomatic data for planning and management in the terrestrail, intertidal and marine environemnts.
CI 6 - Training the citizen scientist
Engaging conferences, workshops, seminars and outreach events to raise awareness and train the citizen scientist in survey and recording, heritage at risk, climate change and storminess impacts.
CI 7- excavations on heritage assets at risk
Community excavations will be run during CHERISH to train citizen scientists in local communities to record heritage sites at risk.
CI 8 - shared web portal
A key tool of CHERISH for information delivery and awareness-raising and an important legacy of the operation for future adaptation strategies.
CI 9 - LANDOWNER MANAGEment PLANS
Detailed management plans and GIS datasets for reefs, islands and headlands under study showing cultural heritage assets and climate change threats.
