Geologic map 1:50000 v3.0 - December 2024

Synthesis of the geology of Catalonia at a scale of 1:50,000 through the cartographic representation of geological units of a lithostratigraphic nature, of the major structural elements (unconformities, faults and folds) and of the types of contact between units.

Purpose
The main objectives of this geoinformation are: To provide an overview of the geology of Catalonia at a scale of 1:50,000; To provide a reference base for the development of any activity that has a territorial impact at medium scales and that must take geology into account; To enable the performance of operations and queries for analysis or territorial impact with other sets of geographic information data.

Compliance with INSPIRE requirements (metadata)
Evaluation method description
The compliance of the metadata is evaluated using the "INSPIRE Reference Validator" web tool. The metadata is considered correct when the only errors reported are related with the main language of the metadata file. These errors are due to the fact that Catalan is not included in the list of official languages of the European Union.

Statement
The preparation of the 1:50 000 v3.0 geological map is based on the synthesis of the geology of the second series of the National Geological Map (MAGNA, 1972-present), of the Instituto Geológico y Minero de España (IGME). The synthesis process involves the geological harmonization of the 88 sheets of the MAGNA series that cover the entire territory of Catalonia. During the preparation, other geological maps of Catalonia, scientific articles and research works are also consulted, with relevant content from the various areas of geology integrated into the v3.0 of the 1:50 000 geological map of Catalonia. The technical specifications list the publications initially consulted.
