A collection of aerial photographs providing national coverage supplied to BGS by Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Scotland (RCAHMS). The aerial photos bought by BGS were taken during a two year period from 1988-89 and were bought by BGS for individual mapping projects. The photos are a copy of the originals held by the RCAHMS. Since 1976, RCAHMS has undertaken an annual programme of aerial survey, recording archaeological sites, monuments and buildings throughout Scotland. All R...
Iso-content maps of Rubidium (Rb), one of the chemical elements.obtained in the Geochemical Atlas of Spain Project, distributed in stream sediments (14,864 samples), superficial soils (0-20 cm.) (13,505 samples) and deeper soils (20-40 cm.) (7,682 samples). The results of the chemical analysis are shown in two types: total dissolution of the sample with 4 acids and partial dissolution with aqua regia. With the analytical results of all the sampled points, an isocontent map is made with adjustment to a squa...
The 5km Hex GS Running Sand dataset shows a generalised view of the GeoSure Running Sand v7 dataset to a hexagonal grid resolution of 64.95km coverage area (side length of 5km). This dataset indicates areas of potential ground movement in a helpful and user-friendly format. The rating is based on a highest level of susceptibility identified within that Hex area: Low (1), Moderate (2), Significant (3). Areas of localised significant rating are also indicated. The summarising process via spatial statistics a...

Samples of high-grade amphibolite-facies gneiss collected from north west Bhutan. Data comprises samples mineral chemistry data, U-Pb rutile data and garnet trace element compositions.
This is PSI data for Rybnik_Ostrava, Poland. It has been provided by GAMMA Remote Sensing as part of the ESA funded Terrafirma project.
S layer represents soil media with direct assignment of S index values (Soil Map of Greece 1:500.000)
S layer represents soil media with direct assignment of S index values for each pedological unit and information from pedological profiles and litho-geochemical map (where no profiles were available). The highest values correspond to lithologies that don't constitute soils or at least very shallow ones (< 30 cm). The lowest values are significant for areas with deeper soil layers (sedimentary rocks).
The aquifer media layer is created by direct assignment of soil layer to S index values from 1-10. The majority of the pilot area (80 %) is covered by subsoils > 5 m thick, with further 10 % subsoils are > 3 m thick. The majority of the catchment is given the lower ‘S’-ratings due to soil and subsoil cover, with areas of little or no soil given a value of 10.
The soil media layer is created by direct assignment of soil layer to S index values from 1-10. Rock outcrops frequently and there is little or no subsoil over much of teh catchment. The majority of the catchment is given the higher ‘S’-ratings due to lack of soil and subsoil cover, with areas of little or no soil given a value of 10.
