A hierarchical flowchart illustrating the data organization structure of the CHERISH project across six distinct levels, flowing from top to bottom. Level 1: Parent Collection Level 2: By County Level 3: By Site Level 4: By Cherish Toolkit branching to Terrestrial laser scanning and UAV digital photogrammetry Level 5: By Data Capture Date Level 6: Data and Metadata: The final level lists seven text-based output categories branching from the data capture dates: "ground control points," "UAV images," "orthomosaic image," "digital elevation model," "topographic relief visualisations," "figures," and "processing reports."

The map is a screenshot from the interactive map in the article, visualising different types of linear landscape features ("hollow ways" and "trods"). There is a "LIDAR" overlay that can be turned on or off.
This photo depicts a vast, open landscape under a dramatic, overcast sky. There are no patches of blue, and the light is diffuse. The immediate foreground and midground are covered in low-lying vegetation, following a controlled burn. In the distance, the land rises to form a gentle hill or ridge with a dip (holloway) noticeable beside the outline of a round barrow.

Thwing, 2009. A screen print by Rose Ferraby. The composition features a mix of geometric and organic shapes. A large, elongated, triangular shape dominates the centre, and is textured to echo the steep sided valleys of the Yorkshire Wolds with a mix of dots, lines, and solid areas. Other shapes include rectangles, circles, and free-form elements. The image has a layered quality and different textures and colours have been applied in stages. The primary colors are various shades of green, ranging from light pastel to darker, more saturated tones. These are contrasted with a soft, warm beige background. A few small elements are rendered in white and a dark, almost black, line. A circular motif in the upper right corner consists of a series of concentric rings resonant of barrows in plan form. The image has a calm, contemplative quality due to its soft colors and abstract composition. The use of texture and layering adds visual interest and depth.
