For example, railway infrastructure stakeholders have a requirement for data products that consider the impacts of climate on bedrock weathering. One example relates to Victorian groundworks that have been subject to weathering and natural slope processes, which changes their structural properties. Changes in future precipitation, drought conditions and other natural processes will alter how such groundworks will respond and evolve in the future. Other examples relate to where transport networks and infrastructure intersect river networks or coastal regions, so climate change-induced changes to river and coastal erosion are also of interest.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\t\t<section id=\"in-this-section-931-block_7004d3d54733ff87282df5ed24637654\" class=\"grid-section  sea-background-e   \" >\n\t\t\t<div class=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"row header-of-section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-12\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2>Relevant BGS data products<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"row grid-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-md-6 col-lg-4\">\n\t<div class=\"cards-over-img cards  cards-find-more \">\n\t\t<a class=\"media-wrap\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bgs.ac.uk\/datasets\/bgs-civils-strength\/\">\n\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bgs.ac.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/feature_strengthSample-150x150.jpg\" class=\"lazy-blur wp-post-image\" alt=\"BGS Civils strength sample\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.bgs.ac.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/feature_strengthSample.jpg\" \/>\t<\/a>\n\t\t<div class=\"info-wrap\">\n\t\t<div class=\"info\">\n\t\t\t<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bgs.ac.uk\/datasets\/bgs-civils-strength\/\">BGS Civils: strength<\/a><\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>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.      <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bgs.ac.uk\/datasets\/bgs-civils-strength\/\">Show more<\/a>\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"col-md-6 col-lg-4\">\n\t<div class=\"cards-over-img cards  cards-find-more \">\n\t\t<a class=\"media-wrap\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bgs.ac.uk\/datasets\/geocoast-premium\/\">\n\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bgs.ac.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Example-data_GeoCoastgrid-inundation-potential-under-UKCP18-climate-scenarios-150x150.jpg\" class=\"lazy-blur wp-post-image\" alt=\"GeoCoast inundation potential under UKCP18 climate scenarios.
