Abstract
The North Sea Palaeolandscapes Project (NSPP) has primarily relied upon the large Southern North Sea (SNS) 3D seismic MegaSurvey developed by Petroleum GeoServices (PGS). This is a regional merge of surveys acquired by the petroleum industry, oil and service companies over the last 20 years (Terrell et al., 2005). It offers an unparalleled source of data for visualising and interpreting buried features of the emergent Holocene landscape at a regional scale providing a broad spatial framework to explore the offshore prehistoric landscape following the last glaciation.
