Description: This vector data layer spatially represents a geological legend depicting the exposed rock outcrop and covering sediments on Antarctica. It illustrates a simplified grouping of the geological unit data for Antarctica, based on age and generalised lithology in the approximate location that the exposure occurs. This geological data was constructed using EPSG:4978 (WGS 84). It is also suitable for projection in EPSG:3031 (WGS 84/Antarctic Polar Stereographic).
Description: This layer comprises geological unit data for Antarctica, rendered with chronostratigraphic symbology. It represents a synthesis existing published and unpublished mapping of the geology of this area in a single dataset for use at a continental to regional scale. The dataset consists of polygon geometry with each polygon having attributes describing the unit type, name, age, lithology, stratigraphy, and supporting background information, where this is known. This layer complies with the GeoSciML Lite standard for GeologicalUnitView and fields required by that standard were populated using the CGI Controlled Vocabulary (v2016.01).

Description: This layer is the fault data for Antarctica. It represents a synthesis of existing published and unpublished mapping of the geological faulting in this area in a single dataset at a regional scale. The dataset comprises arcs with each arc having attributes describing the locational accuracy, exposure, activity, type of fault, and the sense of movement of the fault, where this is known. This layer complies with the GeoSciML Lite standard for ShearDisplacementStructureView and fields required by that standard were populated using the CGI Controlled Vocabulary (v2016.01).
