Our intention is to balance the safe retention and control of national geoscience databases and geological information, with the need to release information openly.
The BGS GeoScour datasets provide a generalised overview of the natural characteristics and properties of catchment and riverine environments for the assessment of river scour in Great Britain.
Focused on the network of stakeholders, directly and indirectly, involved in the production and distribution of energy from renewable and traditional sources.
Targeted at stakeholders concerned with the changing financial risks to property and asset portfolios as a result of geohazard activity.
Focused on stakeholders responsible for the maintenance and expansion of transport networks and associated infrastructure.
Aimed at stakeholders concerned with future changes to the quality and quantity of freshwater resources.
Our most detailed dataset is provided at 1:10 000 and 1:25 000 scale. This digital geological data is based on BGS’s highest-resolution survey mapping. Many urban centres and transport routes are covered by this dataset. Lithostratigraphic nomenclature is updated to current usage.
The BGS offers a range of services and information for businesses, home-owners, policymakers and the general public.
