The IGME5000-DE (INSPIRE) represents the pre-quaternary bedrock geology (section of Germany) of the European map on a scale of 1:5,000,000. According to the Data Specification on Geology (D2.8.II.4_v3.0) the content of the geological map is stored in two INSPIRE-compliant GML files: IGME5000-DE_GeologicUnit.gml contains the geologic units and IGME5000-DE_GeologicStructure.gml comprises the faults. The GML files together with a Readme.txt file are provided in ZIP format (IGME5000-DE-INSPIRE.zip). The Readme.text file (German/English) contains detailed information on the GML files content. Data transformation was proceeded by using the INSPIRE Solution Pack for FME according to the INSPIRE requirements.

INSPIRE download WFS service providing Portugal onshore bedrock geological data at 1:1 000 000 scale. This service is being served as a contribution to the OneGeology initiative (www.onegeology.org) and to fulfill the requirements of the INSPIRE Directive. Layers available for bedrock are geologic units classified according to representative ages and lithologies from INSPIRE vocabularies, faults and geomorphologic features.

The 1:5 Million International Geological Map of Europe and Adjacent Areas shows the pre-Quaternary geology of Europe onshore and offshore. In addition to the geology attributed by age, petrography and genesis, also magnetic anomalies, tectonic structures, metamorphism and – in the offshore areas – information about the continental/oceanic crust and the continental margin, are shown. The map was developed by BGR under the umbrella of the Commission of the Geological Map of the World (CGMW) and in cooperation with geological surveys organisations of 48 countries and more than 20 research institutes.

The International Geological Map of Europe on a scale of 1:5,000,000 shows the prequarter geology of Europe on the mainland and in the marine areas. In addition to geology, divided by age and rock type, magnetic anomalies, tectonic structures, the continental edge, metamorphoses and — in the marine areas — crust properties are also shown. The map was created under the direction of the BGR and the patronage of the World Map Commission (CGMW) with contributions from 48 European geological services and more than 20 scientific institutions. Detailed information on the "IGME 5000: More than just a map — A multinational GIS Project" can be found on the IGME website. According to the INSPIRE Directive, this database includes the German share.

The International Geological Map of Europe and the Mediteranean Regions 1 : 1 500 000 ("Carte Géologique Internationale de l'Europe et des Régions Méditerranéennes 1 : 1 500 000") shows the geology of the European continent from the Ural mountains in the east up to Island in the west and the whole mediteranean region in the south. The geology is differenciated in stratigraphy, igneous and metamorphic rocks. In addition there are two legend sheets and a title sheet. The language of the series is French.

In the table below, the full map is linked in jpg-format as a 37 MB file with a print size of 100 x 90 cm (Ord No 0). With ordinal numbers 1-49 detailed maps are provided in pdf-format of 2 MB each. The numbers refer to the tile numbers in the mosaic overview.

The map is made available in GPKG format (the filename is "full_geo_lim_3035.gpkg" - QGIS and other Open Source GIS can deal with this format) Along with the map, we provide: 1) the original national geological maps of Germany, Italy, Slovenia, France, Switzerland and Austria, used for creating the map (folder "original_maps" in the "scripts" folder); 2) a script ("build_geo_lim.sh" in the "scripts" folder) that can be used to replicate the classification and the union of the original maps. The script was tested in a Ubuntu 16.04 environment where GRASS GIS 7.4 is installed. In order to run the script, the following command must be executed inside the "scripts" folder: grass74 -c datagrass/geo_lim/geo_lim/ --exec bash build_geo_lim.sh The "sql" folder contains the rules (exploited by the main "build_geo_lim.sh" script) for the classification of the geological formations into lithological units. Users can conveniently change those rules in order to change the final classification. For the elaboration of the GIS-based simplified geo-lithological map (Geo-LiM), we took advantage of the geological layers, in vector format, extracted from (i) the geological map of Italy at 1:500,000 scale (http://www.isprambiente.gov.it), (ii) the geological map of Switzerland at 1:500,000 scale (http://www.swisstopo.admin.ch), (iii) the geological map of Germany at 1:1,000,000 scale (Geologische Karte der Bundesrepublik Deutschland 1:1,000,000, BGR, Hannover.), (iv) the geological map of Austria at 1:500,000 scale (www.geologie.ac.at), (v) the geological map of France at 1:1,000,000 scale, and (vi) the geological map of Slovenia at 1:250,000 scale. These two last maps were obtained from the European Geological Data Infrastructure (EGDI - http://www.europe-geology.eu/metadata/). The six maps are released in ESRI shapefile, having different coordinate reference systems and different accuracy and information quality. The layers of France, Germany and Slovenia contained some topological errors (e.g. gaps between polygon borders, overlapping polygon borders, etc...) and were corrected removing duplicate boundaries and areas smaller than, respectively, 1 square meter, 600 square meters and 50 square meters (the longest boundary with adjacent area was removed). M. Donnini was supported by a grant of the Fondazione Assicurazioni Generali, and A. Zucchini was partially supported by the research projects of Paola Comodi, Francesco Frondini e Diego Perugini of the Department of Physics and Geology of the University of Perugia. We introduce a new geo-lithological map of Central Europe (Geo-LiM) elaborated adopting a lithological classification compliant to the methods more used in the litterature for estimating the consumption of atmospheric CO2 due by chemical weathering. Geo-LiM represents a novelty if compared with published global geo-lithological maps. The first novelty is due by the attention paid in discriminating metamorphic rocks that were classified according to the chemistry of protoliths. The second novelty is that the procedure used for the definition of the map is made available on the web to allow the replicability and reproducibility of the product.

This digitally compiled map includes geology, geologic provinces, and oil and gas fields of Europe including Turkey. The maps are part of a worldwide series of maps on CD-ROM released by the U.S. Geological Survey's World Energy Project. The goal of the project is to assess the undiscovered, technically recoverable oil and gas resources of the world. For data management purposes the world was divided into eight energy regions corresponding approximately to the economic regions of of the world as defined by the U.S. Department of State. Europe (Region 4) includes Albania, Andorra, Austria, Belgium, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, The Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, Malta, Monaco, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, San Marino, Serbia and Montenegro, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, United Kingdom and Vatican. The depicted portion of Region 2 includes Turkey. Each region is divided into geologic provinces. Each province has a set of geologic characteristics that distinguish it from surrounding provinces. These characteristics may include the predominant lithologies, the age of the strata, and the structural style. Some provinces include multiple genetically-related basins. Geologic province boundaries are delineated using data from a number of geologic maps and other tectonic and geographic data (see References). Offshore province boundaries are defined by the 2000 meter bathymetric contour. Each province is assigned a unique number. Because geologic trends are independent of political boundaries, some provinces overlap two regions. The code of those provinces that lie entirely within Europe begin with the number 4 and those provinces that lie entirely within Turkey begin with the number 2. The code of those provinces that lie partly within another region may start with a 1, for the Former Soviet Union (Persits and others 1998) or a 2, for Middle East and North Africa (Pollastro , 1998; Persits and others, 1997). The centerpoint locations of oil and gas fields are plotted based on the locations in the Petroconsultants International Data Corp. (1996) database with permission. Selected provinces are currently being investigated, by Total Petroleum System analysis, and assessments are being made of the undiscovered oil and gas resource potential of these provinces. Klett and others (1997) discuss the worldwide geologic provinces and their relative ranking in terms of total known petroleum volume. Specific details of the data sources and map compilation are given in the metadata files on this CD-ROM. Some stratigraphic units are combined to simplify the map and to ensure consistency across the region. All rocks are colored by age. Igneous and metamorphic rocks are identified with fill patterns and colors. These maps are compiled using Environmental Systems Research Institute Inc. (ESRI) ARC/INFO software. Political boundaries and cartographic representations on this map are taken, with permission from ESRI's ArcWorld 1:3M digital coverage; they have no political significance and are displayed as general reference only.
