  • The lithofacies model of the Buntsandstein shows the spatial and temporal distribution of the lithologies within the Buntsandstein sequences in the central part of the German North Sea. The data basis of the model is formed by depth-migrated, seismic reinterpretations of the most important basement areas, 22 drilling datasets and the GSN (Generalised Extended Structural Model of the German North Sea Sector). The salt structures of the German North Sea and 30 faults essential for the structural setup of the model region were integrated into the model in a generalised way. The creation of the model and the preceding data preparation were carried out with the help of several specialised programmes (Schlumberger Petrel, Paradigm GOCAD and Fugro GeoDIn). The horizontal resolution of the model is 1000 x 1000 metres with a total number of 2042977 cells.

  • The map of the plant available water in Germany gives an overview of the amount of water which is available for plant growth in the summer period (April – September). It is the sum of the available water holding capacity of soils the precipitation in summer and the amount of capillary rise. The map was made on the basis of the land use stratified soil map of Germany at a scale of 1:1,1000,000, climate data for the period of 1961–1990 and land use information is derived from the Corine Land Cover data set (2006). The method is part of the TUB_BGR approach to model seepage water and is published in the documentation of Ad-hoc-AG Boden (representing the soil experts of the geological services of the German federal states).

  • The Potential Soil Erosion Risk map gives an overview of the exposure of arable soils to soil loss due to surface runoff and splash erosion in Germany. It is based on pedological, relief and climatic factors. The map was created by using the long-term model USLE (Universal Soil Loss Equation). The method is published in the DIN 19708:2005-02 and in the documentation of Ad-hoc-AG Boden (representing the soil experts of the geological services of the German federal states). For the application with soil maps, the method was adapted by the Federal Institute for Geosciences and Natural Resources (BGR).The landuse stratified soil map of Germany at scale 1:1,000,000 was used as pedological input to the model. The relief data was derived from the DEM50 of the BKG. The mean annual precipitation data of the period 1961-1990 (DWD) is used to model the erosivity of rainfall. The land use information is derived from CORINE land cover data set (2006).

  • The data set includes meta data of boreholes that are affected by the Geological Data Act and are located within the exclusive economic zone of Germany.

  • The digital GK2000 Geology represents the surface geology of Germany and adjacent regions at a scale of 1:2,000,000. The map includes 30 units differentiated according to their age of formation. It also contains information on the distribution of volcanic, plutonic and metamorphic rocks. Furthermore, the map shows tectonic line elements, marginal positions of the ice shield of the last glacial periods as well as the impact craters Nördlinger Ries and Steinheimer Becken.

  • The data set includes meta data from sedimentary and rock samples including borehole cores from the exclusive econimic zone of Germany stored at the Federal Institute for Geosciences and Natural Resources (BGR) that are affected by the Geological Data Act.

  • The relief of the earth's surface is a major controlling factor for ecological processes and a key indicator of the distribution patterns of important geological factors such as soil, rock and water. On the basis of a digital elevation model with a grid size of 250 meters, the company scilands GmbH in Göttingen produced on behalf of BGR the geomorphographic map of Germany. The programs SARA (System for Automatic Terrain Analysis) and SADO (System for Analysis and Discretization of Surfaces) determined 25 discrete geomorphograpic units (sink areas, closed hollow forms, slope areas, parietal areas, overlay forms) in four different landscape areas (North German Lowland, highland, Alpine foothills and Alps).

  • The map series General Geological Map of the Federal Republic of Germany 1:200,000 (GÜK200) is the result of cooperation between the State Geological Surveys of the Federal Republic of Germany (SGD), the Geological Surveys of neighbouring countries and the Federal Institute for Geosciences and Natural Resources (BGR). The GÜK200 displays the surface geology of Germany and adjacent areas of neighbouring countries on 55 map sheets. The map sheets show the regional dissemination of more than 3800 geological units. The geological units contain information on stratigraphy (age), genesis and petrography (composition) of the rocks.

  • This WMS presents the following data: "Sediment distribution German North Sea - classification according to FIGGE (1981)"; "Sediment distribution German North Sea - classification according to FOLK (1954, 1974)" - Description of the data see there.

  • The national drill core repository of the BGR in Berlin-Spandau includes drilled rocks from various research programs such as BGR, BMBF, GESEP and ICDP. Core material from petroleum industry is also represented. The locations of the wells are given worldwide and visualized on a map. Detailed information is linked to other BGR online services.
