We have a wide range of licensed geoscience data. The datasets range from the geological data family (BGS Geology) to offshore data, ground stability datasets and 3D models.
The only way the UK can reach its target of net zero emissions by 2050 is by taking a better look below the surface, say experts from BGS and geologists from across the UK.
We work with partners worldwide to enhance understanding of hazards, vulnerability, exposure and risk to ensure our science is useful, usable and used.
From sinkholes to radon: new maps highlight the most geologically at-risk regions
Prof Jonathan Chambers has been appointed as the new BGS Chief Scientist for multi-hazards and resilience, effective from 1 June 2024.
The BGS Geology datasets are digital geological maps of Great Britain based on the different series of published BGS geological maps.
A new European Space Agency-funded project will study the effect earthquakes have on occurrences of other natural hazards in the long-term.
We are using citizen science for people to develop a shared understanding of hazardous phenomena and for communities to contribute to hazard forecasting and early warning.
