The 1:500,000 Geological Map of Switzerland covers the whole of Switzerland and adjoining parts of neighbouring countries. It gives an overview of the distribution of the upperm...
The GeoCover datasets are available according to the sheet division of the National Maps 1:25,000. To obtain a complete coverage of Switzerland, datasets can be found in the lay...
Geological mapping of the whole country based on the Dufour Map of Switzerland. Comprised of eight sheets, published between 1942 and 1964, the General Geological Map of Switzer...
The geothermal map shows the thermal energy that is produced in the subsurface and traverses the Earth's surface within an area of 1 m2. The heat itself is released in the Earth...
The overall magnetisation of a rock consists of induced magnetisation caused by the Earth's magnetic field and of remanent magnetisation acquired by the rock during its formatio...
The 1:200'000 map of mineral resources (RK200) classifies the subsurface strata according to geochemical criteria. The map is overlaid with point data showing the occurrence of ...
This dataset shows the deposits and former mining sites of fossil fuels (coal, oil, natural gas etc.) in Switzerland. Currently, no fossil fuels are being mined commercially in ...
Geomagnetic maps are the result of measurements of total intensity, declination and inclination. The geomagnetic field is defined by a vector, which isrepresented in terms of it...
Isostatic anomalies can be deduced using the Pratt or Airy hypothesis. These anomalies correspond to the static flotation of the Earth’s crust in the upper mantle. The deviation...
Geomagnetic maps are the result of measurements of total intensity, declination and inclination. The inclination is the angle formed by the orientation of the magnetic field rel...
The data on the cement industry is part of the Geotechnical Environmental Atlas (GEA) of the Swiss Geotechnical Commission, a database of mineral deposits in Switzerland. This d...
Geomagnetic maps are the result of measurements of total intensity, declination and inclination. The declination describes the angle formed between magnetic and geographic north...
The 1:500'000 geotechnical map (GK500) of the Swiss Geotechnical Commission (SGTK) shows the subsurface strata classified according to lithological-petrographic criteria. The le...
The displacement vectors of the pass points (TSP1) point from LV03 to LV95 and therefore in the direction and absolute value of the local rectification (infobox).
The mosaic of Landsat satellite images is a composition of 20 individual images taken by the American satellite Landsat 5, in the years 1990 to 1994. It is a unique set of image...
This dataset shows the use of stone in the construction of over 4,000 buildings in Switzerland. The data was collected by Francis de Quervain between 1954 and 1983. Over the pas...
Dieser Datensatz zeigt die in Betrieb stehenden sowie stillgelegten Abbau- und Werkstandorte der Zement- und Kalkindustrie in der Schweiz. Er ist Teil des Rohstoffinformationssy...
Natural stone is extracted from hard rock in quarries in the form of hewn or sawn blocks for direct use in construction. This dataset shows the active and decommissioned natural...
The map (GK500-LGM) shows the maximum extent of glaciation in Switzerland at the height of the last Ice Age around 24,000 years ago. It presents the latest results of current re...
