A rockhead elevation surface derived from the combined base of all modelled superficial and artificial units has an elevation range of +254.87m OD to -25.24m OD (Figure 13). This rockhead elevation surface has a cell size of 100m and caps the bedrock part of the geological model. It was generated by calculating in GSI3D using the complete superficial and anthropocene model on a tile by tile basis, buffering each area by 200m to ensure a small overlap. The resulting rockhead surfaces were combined into the single surface in GIS. Where modelled anthropocene and/or superficial deposits are absent, this rockhead elevation surface corresponds to the Digital Terrain Model. This surface was calaculated in GSi3D and exported to GOCAD® in order to cap the model of the faulted bedrock units.
