Interactive Map
This interactive map gives you the chance to see the layout of the wind farm, along with information about transport, noise, and grid connection.
Photomontages
These images show what the wind farm will look like from different viewpoints around the area.
Methodology of Montages
The selection of these viewpoints where chosen in order to establish a broad
sample throughout the area and at different distances from the Proposal site
as recommended by Scottish Natural Heritage as the best practice guidance.
Viewpoint locations included residential areas (ranging from small villages
close to the site to the outskirts of larger towns), roads carrying
national, regional or local traffic, railways, long distance footpaths and
cycle ways and specific viewpoints, such as from major sites or visitor
attractions. This initial selection was submitted to the East Riding
Yorkshire Council who amended and approved it. This forms the basis for the
visual assessment contained within the ES.
The visual impact assessment is based on the results of field surveys
undertaken between February 2006 and August 2006. The photographs used as a
basis for photomontages were taken with a 35mm digital SLR tripod mounted
camera with the equivalent of a 50mm lens setting.
