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 the suitability of a geological material for foundations as part of a suite of GIS layers for different engineering parameters.
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.
Some rocks contain loosely-packed sandy layers that can become fluidised by water flowing through them. This can cause potential damage.
This dataset contains estimated ambient background concentrations of potentially harmful elements for rural and selected urban topsoils.
We work with partners worldwide to enhance understanding of hazards, vulnerability, exposure and risk to ensure our science is useful, usable and used.
