Gravimetric Atlas of Switzerland 1:100000

The Bouguer anomalies for Switzerland are shown on 22 sheets. A Bouguer anomaly is the difference between the gravity measured at a particular point on the Earth's surface and t...

Hydrogeological Map of Switzerland: Groundwater Resources 1:500000

The Federal Office for the Environment (FOEN) is the body within the Swiss Geological Survey responsible for hydrogeology. The 1:500,000 Hydrogeological Map forms part of the Ge...

Geotechnical Map of Switzerland 1:200000

The 1:200'000 geotechnical map (GK200) shows the subsurface strata classified according to lithological-petrographic criteria. The legend is designed to represent the technical ...

Geological Map of Switzerland 1:500000

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...

Geological Vector Datasets GeoCover

The GeoCover Datasets V2 (standardized according to the Data Model Geology of Switzerland) is based on the map sheets of the Geological Atlas of Switzerland 1:25 000 and on comp...

Total Intensity Map of Switzerland 1:500000

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...

Geological Atlas of Switzerland 1:25000

The sheets of the Geological Atlas of Switzerland (GA25) give detailed information about the uppermost layers of the subsurface structure. Geological formations are represented ...

Map of Mineral Raw Materials in Switzerland 1:200000

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 ...

Aeromagnetic Map of the Swiss Plateau and the Jura Mountains

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...

Declination Map of Switzerland 1:500000

Geomagnetic maps are the result of measurements of total intensity, declination and inclination. The declination describes the angle formed between magnetic and geographic north...
