BGS Applied Geology Maps and Sections 1996 http://data.bgs.ac.uk/id/dataHolding/13603135 <DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>This dataset contains scans of Applied Geology Maps (AGMs) and sections, which are also known as thematic maps, Environmental Geology Maps (EGMs) or Planning for Development Maps (PfD). They were produced as part of 'Geological Background for Planning and Development' and preliminary sand and gravel projects carried out by the British Geological Survey for the Department of the Environment, Transport and the Regions (DETR), the Scottish Development Department and Scottish Office from 1975 to 1996. The maps and sections cover a number of themes (up to 22) for specific areas relating to the project area within the United Kingdom (which are mostly urban areas). Themes include simplified bedrock and superficial maps, drift thickness, drift lithology, rockhead contours and a range of mining-related themes. Each area had its own custom set of maps and were issued with an accompanying BGS Technical Report. The maps and report were sometimes issued as a pack, but for some areas they were made available separately. The geological linework and the methods used to produce the maps are those current at the time of production. Map scales are predominantly 1:10 000 or 1:25 000, with a few 1:50 000 maps. The maps have Ordnance Survey map bases and are bounded by the project area. The maps could be used for geological, engineering geological, environmental and resources research, as an information and reference resource and for inclusion in reports and papers. These maps are hard-copy paper records and digital scans, stored in the National Geoscience Data Centre (NGDC).</SPAN><SPAN> http://data.bgs.ac.uk/id/dataHolding/13603135</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV> Enquiries British Geological Survey 0115 936 3142 0115 936 3276 The Lyell Centre, Research Avenue South EDINBURGH LOTHIAN EH14 4AP GB enquiries@bgs.ac.uk Enquiries British Geological Survey 0115 936 3142 0115 936 3276 The Lyell Centre, Research Avenue South EDINBURGH LOTHIAN EH14 4AP GB enquiries@bgs.ac.uk Enquiries British Geological Survey 0115 936 3142 0115 936 3276 The Lyell Centre, Research Avenue South EDINBURGH LOTHIAN EH14 4AP GB enquiries@bgs.ac.uk https://resources.bgs.ac.uk/images/geonetworkThumbs/9df8df52-d675-37a8-e044-0003ba9b0d98.png GEMET - INSPIRE themes, version 1.0 2008-06-01 BGS Thesaurus of Geosciences 2022 UK Location (INSPIRE) Land use planning Engineering geology Mining Cross sections Natural resources Geological mapping Maps Natural hazards Geological maps Geology NERC_DDC UK Location (INSPIRE) Land use planning Engineering geology Mining Cross sections Natural resources Geological mapping Maps Natural hazards Geological maps Geology NERC_DDC The copyright of materials derived from the British Geological Survey's work is vested in the Natural Environment Research Council [NERC].
