BGS’s online tool for validating AGS files against the official AGS data format rules and its own NGDC data submission requirements goes live.
The BGS Geology datasets are digital geological maps of Great Britain based on the different series of published BGS geological maps.
A standard method of providing map images that can be viewed in GIS software, virtual globes and portal-style websites using a map-based interface.
The BGS has pioneered the use of ground-based (terrestrial) techniques for a variety of geoscientific applications since 1999.
The BGS’s test site at Aldbrough is located on the extensive Holderness coast in South Yorkshire and monitoring the actively receding coastline.
Wet and dry sample storage, preparation and standard and non-standard geotechnical and geophysical property testing.
Applications range from mineral exploration and waste management, to monitoring active processes within the subsurface, such as the movement of pollutants, or the flow of groundwater in unstable slopes affecting infrastructure.
The team are actively researching and developing new modelling and data analysis methods in geophysical tomography.
