Recycling and Waste Facilities - Scotland

Most councils will keep a record of their recycling and waste management facilities. Therefore we have tried to compile these into consistent national layers.

Currently, we publish two layers:

- Recycling Places (including locations of bins and centres) - a point layer (any provided polygons will have a centroid created)

- Waste Management (including transfer centres and current/ historic landfill sites) - a polygon layer (any points will be buffered by 20m)

Statement

This dataset was amalgamated, optimised and published by the Spatial hub.

The following quality assurance checks and corrections are carried out on the data:

- Polygons are not dissolved/ aggregated by key name and local authority.

- The minimum polygon area allowed in the data is 1 square metres

- Checks for invalid geometry types

- The maximum angle for any spikes is 3 degrees

- Any duplicate geometry is removed from the data

- Duplicate key names for polygons are not removed

- Polygons with no key names are not removed

- Checks for basic geometry i.e. self-intersection

Please contact spatialhub@improvementservice.org.uk for more details.
