3D model of aquifers of Port del Comte v1.0
3D model of Port del Comte aquifers, developed as part of the assessment of underground water resources available in Catalonia. More specifically, this model contains the lithological-hydrogeological units, the main geological structures, the topographic surface of the project area, the location of the main karst springs and the saturated rock volumes of the water reservoirs associated with each of the springs

- Description
- The Port del Comte mantle and, specifically, from the Port del Comte thrust to the Bóixols - Serres Marginals thrust, and from the Cardener fault to the Cambrils diapiric structure. It is located between the municipalities of Fígols and Alinyà, Odèn, la Vansa and Fórnols, la Coma i la Pedra and Guixers, with an area of approximately 108 km2, and from the surface of the land to the level 800 m below the mean sea level. Temporal extent refers to the dates of the data sources.

- Evaluation method description
- The data of this dataset do not aim to achieve compliance with INSPIRE regulations. For this reason, its conformity is not evaluated and it is declared not conformant compliant by default.

Domain consistency
- Name of measure
- 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.
Conformance result
- Statement
- The model is made through the use of the implicit geological modeling method (implicit geological modeling), which uses several mathematical algorithms that rely on known geological data to infer the creation of geological surfaces while considering and maintaining the coherence and consistency of the 3D geological structure of the model. Once the final geometries of the different lithological and structural units of the 3D model have been obtained, the KARSYS method is applied in order to visualize and understand the arrangement of the theoretical underground water reservoirs associated with the main aquifer of the limestones and dolomites of the lower Eocene in relation to the different outcrops. The KARSYS method (a pragmatic approach to karst hydrogeological system conceptualisation) developed by Malard, A. et al (2012) and Jeannin et al (2013) of the Swiss Institute of Speleology and Karst Research (SISKA), is a practical approach in order to improve the understanding of the functioning and delimitation of a karst system. The method is based on an explicit conceptual model of the karst aquifer and assumes that groundwater flow is predominantly conditioned by its geometry. It starts from the premise that, by fixing the regional base hydraulic gradients, it is possible to theoretically delimit in 3D the extent of the underground water reservoirs associated with a karst outcrop.
