Information regarding an area exposed to an avalanche. Mapped based on analysis of the terrain and of signs that avalanches leave in their path, mainly, in forests. In Avalanche Zones, avalanches occur frequently and are of different sizes. Avalanche Zones have been systematically mapped throughout the region. They are shown in orange. There are two types of Avalanche Zones: zones where avalanches usually follow the same path, shown in orange, and zones where avalanches usually follow different paths, shown in pale orange.

: Information regarding an avalanche observed in the past. Mapped based on a survey of inhabitants of the area where the phenomenon took place. The boundaries shown are based on the explanations given by the witnesses consulted. Information is usually taken from Avalanche Zones close to inhabited areas where avalanches have historically interfered with human activity. For this reason the majority of the information is found around these zones. They are shown in purple. Cartography often maps only the avalanche arrival zone, as the descriptions usually refer to their extent and the damage caused.

Information regarding an avalanche observed recently. Mapped based on direct observation of the event or observation following it. The information is obtained based on the nivometeorological observation network, rescue groups, countryside wardens, mountain guides, and ski and mountain resort personnel. In the event of important episodes and accidents the IGC technicians also gather information. The elements mapped mainly include the extent to which avalanches affect populated areas, roads, ski resorts and people who carry out mountain activities. Data began to be gathered in 1986. It is shown in blue.

Sant Gregori Forest Fire Prevention Plan is a set of cartographic data consisting of four plans in PDF format together with an accompanying document in the plans as established in the law on measures to prevent forest fires in urbanizations, population centers, buildings and facilities located on forest land. Likewise, you can also access an interactive Instamaps viewer map that shows, on a cartographic basis, the areas in need of opening or maintenance, the fire protection strips and the required polygons.

Information of the Natural Environment in the framework of the SITxell project. Natural habitats and corresponding valuation, in the fluvial area of the main courses of the Ter river basin in the province of Barcelona, with division by river and municipality.

Information about snow avalanches of Catalonia. This data set is conforming to the technical specifications of INSPIRE Natural risk zones.

Cartography of the habitats of the Barcelona counties, version 3. This is an update of version 2 (2012) in which, apart from the planimetric revision based on the ICGC orthophotomaps, the legend becomes the List of habitats in Catalonia, each polygon contains a single habitat, the minimum area is reduced to 1.5 ha, adding a layer of points for small habitats. The attributes of the map contain the CORINE habitats, the habitats of community interest (HIC), the EUNIS classification of habitats, the classification of the LPEHT (Spanish Standard List of Terrestrial Habitats), as well as several attributes of valuation of the natural interest and the degree habitat threat.

The central element is the 1:25,000 geological map; the rest are called peripheral elements. The peripheral elements are: the legend of the cartographic units, the conventional signs, the stratigraphic columns, the geological sections, the stratigraphic relationship diagram, the geological diagram and the complementary diagrams. The geological map shows the distribution of different types of rocks that emerge on the surface of the earth and their relative arrangement. It allows us to deduce much of the arrangement of rocks in the subsoil and to learn about the geological history of a region. It is a two-dimensional graphic representation that allows us to make extrapolations in three dimensions or, even, four if time is considered, depending on the level of reading that is made. It is formed by a set of cartographic units limited by contacts and by symbols that represent other geological elements: surface dip, folding structures, subsoil information (isopachs or isobaths of the Quaternary), slope of recent deposits, morphological indications, landslides and other recent processes, deposits, etc. It also includes symbols of various references (geological sections, drillings, names of major geological structures, etc.).

Delimitation, location and attributes of the elements of geological interest identified in Catalonia that are included in the Inventory of Areas of Geological Interest of Catalonia published in 2000 and updated in 2020 and of those that have been identified in other inventories or scientific and informative publications. Spaces of geological interest are places of interest for their unique and/or representative nature, which allow the study and interpretation of the origin and evolution of geological domains, including the processes that have shaped them, the climates of the past and its paleobiological evolution; and constitute the geological heritage of a territory.
