Interrelated specimens and records compiled over 150 years of palaeontological collecting and research. All associated paper data (registers, indexes of locality and storage, reports of conclusions).

3200 mineral veins (i.e. lead, fluorspar) of the Southern Pennine Orefield within the Peak District National Park captured as a single dataset in 1983 from BGS 1:10 560 published maps with...

Data identifying landscape areas (shown as polygons) attributed with geological names. The scale of the dataset is 1:250 000, providing a generalised geology. Onshore coverage is provided for all...

The foreign sliced rock or 'F' collection consists of about 10, 000 specimens and thin sections, cited by their 'F' numbers. These include material archived from recent overseas projects and much...

Database of water levels in selected observation boreholes: daily, weekly or monthly measurements. Consistent set of boreholes in catchments relatively undisturbed by pumping distributed across...

Microfossil samples submitted to the BGS are currently registered using the prefix 'MPA'. Samples include rock, residues from sample preparations, and slides of mounted specimens. Rock, residues...

This is a set of data points for constructing a seismic hazard map of the UK, plotting the intensity (EMS) with a return period of 475 years, equivalent to a 90% probability of not being exceeded...

Derived from data collated from the 2005 Aggregate Minerals Survey, carried out by BGS for the Department for Communities and Local Government (CLG) which provide an in-depth and up-to-date...

The dataset contains detailed Digital Elevation Models (DEMs), generated from Airborne LiDAR. The data is owned by the Environment Agency and is provided to BGS for research use only. Very limited...

The commercial GeoReports project, under the National Geoscience Information Service sector of the Information Systems and Management directorate, produces around 8000 GeoReports a year, giving an...

Data identifying landscape areas (shown as polygons) attributed with geological names. The scale of the data is 1:25 000 scale. Onshore coverage is partial and BGS has no intention to create a...

Stored in Murchison House, this dataset (FAUNGRAPHLOG_ED) is the BGS UK (North) collection of paper graphic logs from boreholes and measured natural sections, particularly in the Carboniferous of...
