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 Soil Map of Catalonia 1: 250 000 is the result of the synthesis of the edaphological data available at the time of its preparation, in 2018. This process, carried out by the Cartographic and Geological Institute of Catalonia, has consisted of in the compilation, analysis and correlation of the cartographic information obtained in the different soil mapping works that have been executed in Catalonia since the 70's of the last century.
-
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.
-
Distribution of soils in the territory according to their morphology and characteristics physical, chemical and biological, and those of the environment where they are found.
-
Synthesis of the geological constitution of Catalonia through the cartographic representation of lithostratigraphic geological units, major structural elements (unconformities, faults and folds) and types of contact between units. The situation of the soundings carried out for the exploration of hydrocarbons is also included.
-
Synthesis of the hydrogeological macrounits into which the territory can be divided, called hydrogeological areas, and classification of the formations of the Geological Map of Catalonia 1:250,000 according to their lithological characteristics, type of porosity and consolidation.
-
Geothermal 3D model of the Fossa del Camp, developed as part of the Deep Geothermal energy project (GeoEnergia-GP) by the ICGC. More specifically, this model contains the lithological units, the main geological structures, the geothermal model with the 3D temperature and geothermal potential distribution of several mesozoic aquifers in the Fossa del Camp, the location of the exploration drilling Reus-1 and the topographic surface of the scope of the project.
-
Delimitation of the hidrogeological units of Catalonia (aquifers, aquitards, aquicludes and aquifer systems), i.e. those parts of the lithosphere with distinctive parameters for water storage and conduction. The data model of this geoinformation is based on the technical specifications of geological data of the INSPIRE Directive (2007/2/CE).
-
3D model of aquifers in the urban and peri-urban areas of Girona and surrounding municipalities, developed within the framework of the MUSE project (Management Urban Shallow geothermal Energy, 2018-2021). More specifically, this model contains the lithological-hydrogeological units, the main geological structures and the topographic and piezometric surfaces of the project area.
-
Information about snow avalanches of Catalonia. This data set is conforming to the technical specifications of INSPIRE Natural risk zones.
