This map shows the distribution of seabed substrate classes within Irish waters. High resolution grids of MBES bathymetry and backscatter data have been interpreted into 5 substrate classes: Rock, Coarse sediment, Mixed sediment, Sand and Mud to muddy Sand classes. Backscatter is

Bedrock is the solid rock at or below the land surface. Over much of Ireland, the bedrock is covered by materials such as soil and gravel. The Bedrock map shows what the land surface of the North East, Midlands, Cork and Dublin would be made up of if these materials were remove

This Hydrostratigraphic Rock Unit Groups map is a reclassification of the 1:100,000 bedrock geology map, created by grouping bedrock formations and members into 27 Rock Unit Group categories based on their hydrogeological properties and other factors.

Karst is a landscape with distinctive landforms that develop on rock types that are readily dissolved by water. In Ireland, karstification mostly occurs in limestone regions.
This karst dataset contains mapped karst landforms in Ireland including: boreholes, caves, dry valleys, e

This database contains records of boreholes, dug wells, springs, and site investigations. Data are derived from GSI drilling, fieldwork and surveys, Local Authorities and other state bodies, Private Well Grants, Drillers, Consultants, Group Water Schemes and Academia. It is NOT

This dataset is the GSI’s legacy borehole database, compiled over many years from many sources. This dataset is available while we make significant improvements to our borehole holdings.

In terms of time scale in geology, Quaternary is the present-day time and it began 2.6 million years ago. A lot of this time period relates to the Ice Age. Quaternary Geomorphology shows features left on the earth’s surface during this time. Glaciers and ice sheets, which are mas

The term Physiography can be described as a blending of “physical" and "geography". Physiographic Units show Ireland’s physical landscape divided into categories such as ‘Bedrock plain’ and ‘Flat to undulating sediments’. Areas are grouped based on bedrock geology (solid rock at

In terms of time scale in geology, Quaternary is the present-day time and it began 2.6 million years ago. A lot of this time period relates to the Ice Age. Quaternary sediments are the soft material that has been deposited during this time. In Ireland much of this is related to

Geological heritage or ‘geoheritage’ is the term used to describe sites or places with features of geology that have important scientific, educational, cultural, or visual value. There are many types of sites. They are made from past and present geological processes (wearing away
