2D and 3D reflection seismic in Switzerland
This dataset shows the location of seismic reflection data acquired in Switzerland for exploration of the geological subsurface. Most records are two-dimensional (2D) measurements, shown as profile traces, while three-dimensional (3D) measurements cover the areas indicated by the mapped perimeters. It is published by the Swiss Confederation, through the Federal Office of Topography (swisstopo), and provides nationwide coverage. The data supports geological research, subsurface exploration, and planning activities that require knowledge of underground structure across Switzerland.This map shows the location of seismic reflection data acquired in Switzerland for the exploration of the geological subsurface. The majority of these are two-dimensional measurements (2D) along the profile traces shown. Three-dimensional measurements (3D) cover the areas within the shown perimeter…
