Map based index (GeoIndex) digital geological map availability 1:10k
This layer of the GeoIndex shows the location of available 1:10000 scale digital geological maps within Great Britain. The Digital Geological Map of Great Britain project (DiGMapGB) has prepared 1:625 000, 1:250 000 and 1:50 000 scale datasets for England, Wales and Scotland. The datasets themselves are available as vector data in a variety of formats in which they are structured into themes primarily for use in geographical information systems (GIS) where they can be integrated with other types of spatial data for analysis and problem solving in many earth-science-related issues. The DiGMapGB-10 dataset is as yet incomplete, current work is concentrated on extending the geographical cover, especially to cover high priority urban areas.

GeoIndex is a publically-accessible map-based index to the datasets that BGS have collected or have obtained from other sources. All datasets presented are derived from the BGS corporate data holdings. Each DiGMapGB-10 digital tile is typically based on the latest 1:10 000 (or 1:10 560) scale geological map.
