The potential for collapsible ground to be a hazard has been assessed using 1:50 000 scale digital maps of superficial deposits.
The BGS depth to groundwater product is a national scale dataset of probable maximum depth to the phreatic water table.
The National Landslide Database is the most extensive source of information on landslides in Great Britain with over 17 000 records.
The BGS property subsidence assessment dataset uses a combination of best available geology, tree location and property information to provide property- and postcode-specific information on ground movement across England and Wales.
The potential for compressible ground to be a hazard has been assessed using 1:50 000-scale digital maps of superficial and bedrock deposits.
The BGS Geology datasets are digital geological maps of Great Britain based on the different series of published BGS geological maps.
The potential for landsliding (slope instability) to be a hazard has been assessed using 1:50 000 scale digital maps of superficial and bedrock deposits. These have been combined with information from the BGS National Landslide Database and scientific and engineering reports.
BGS is engaged in surveying the country for former mineral sites due to their importance for planning purposes and as potential sources of currently scarce resources such as building stone, in addition to hazard checking.
