The superficial thickness model shows the depth of the bedrock surface below unconsolidated deposits
The BGS superficial thickness hex grid map shows the variation of the thickness of superficial deposits across Great Britain.
This theme provides information on zones of rock strength and the local factors controlling it, as part of a suite of GIS layers for different engineering parameters.
The Soil Parent Material Model details the distribution of properties of the weathered and unweathered soil parent materials of Great Britain.
G-BASE is a major BGS project that surveyed the surface geochemistry of the entire UK. Soil and stream-sediment geochemistry data is available for south-west England as a standalone dataset.
Generalised digital geological map data based on BGS's series of 1:250 000-scale maps, reclassified with lithostratigraphic nomenclature.
Buried valleys are ancient river or subglacial (beneath a glacier) drainage networks that are now abandoned and have become either partly or completely buried by more recent sediment.
