Title

Geophysical Surveys In The Middle And Far East

Abstract

Data from geophysical surveys carried out by the British Geological Survey in many countries in the Middle East, the Indian sub-continent and Indo-China for different agencies. The surveys range from regional gravity and airborne magnetic mapping to targetted surveys for mineral and water. Individual surveys do not yet have metadata entries: this entry describes a notional database that represents all geophysical surveys carried out within the region.

Additional information source

The component databases are updated irregularly as data becomes available. This entry refers to a series of disparate datasets that have been collected for different purposes. The spatial detail varies from low resolution regional surveys, to detailed targeted surveys over mineral or water prospects.
