The boreholes database is an inventory of subsurface data in Catalonia through the collection of available geological and geotechnical survey information. The surveys are classified into three groups: surveys, penetrometers and trial pits.
-
The GeoBase of soils of Catalonia v1.0 is a database intended to store information on soils caught in the field and that necessary for generate soil maps of the territory of Catalonia at different scales, such as the Soil Map 1: 25,000 of Catalonia (MSC25M), or other maps that have been previously prepared (eg at scales 1: 25,000 and 1: 250,000). Contains information on soil profiles with varying levels of detail captured in the field (observations and pits), the composition on horizons, some of its physical and chemical characteristics as well as different types of soils that appear in an area, its spatial distribution.
-
Toponyms (place names) present in the cartography of the Cartographic and Geological Institute of Catalonia, such as the names of municipalities and heads of municipalities, population centres and isolated buildings, facilities and equipment, relief elements (oronyms), hydrographic network and point hydrography (hydronyms), protected areas and other unique elements of the territory; with the coordinates of the point where they are located.
-
Regular grid model of 1 meter resolution, from all over Catalonia, which expresses the orthometric altitudes of the surface of the territory, including the natural and artificial elements found on the ground (trees, buildings, etc.).

Administrative units representing the territorial organization of security and emergency services in Catalonia. This includes basic and regional divisions of the Rural Agents, operational regions of the Fire Service, basic police areas and police regions, as well as the territorial services for Home Affairs and Public Safety. Each layer defines geographical areas with specific functions for resource management, operational coordination, and strategic planning.
-
Mosaic of the territory of Catalonia representing the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), through the combination of rectified images captured by satellite in the red and near-infrared bands. This index allows estimating the vigor of the vegetation, based on the normalized difference between the radiation reflected in the infrared band of the electromagnetic spectrum with respect to the red band of the visible spectrum.

The Land cover map of Catalonia of 2009 with a simplified legend to 41 classes is a geographic information dataset of high resolution with the main types of Catalan land covers as urbanized, farming, forestry areas or water bodies derived from the Land Cover Map of Catalonia of 2009 version 4 (CREAF).

Delimitation of public and private forests, managed by the Generalitat, with information describing the elements necessary for their protection, management and conservation. Public forests are forest land that belongs to entities under public law (Generalitat de Catalunya, councils, decentralized municipal entities, councils, the State, etc.). Communal forest lands are also considered public forests, the use of which corresponds to the community of residents of a town. As for private forests, this geoinformation includes those managed by the Generalitat through an agreement or consortium.
