BGS bedrock and superficial onshore 1:625k geology and offshore 1:1M sediments (OGC WMS)
This OGC Web Map Service, published by the British Geological Survey as part of the OneGeology project, provides UK onshore bedrock and superficial geology at 1:625,000 scale alongside UK continental shelf seabed sediment data at 1:1,000,000 scale. The onshore mapping derives from the ongoing Digital Geological Map of Great Britain (DiGMapGB) project. It offers national-scale coverage suitable for viewing geological units and offshore sediment distribution through GIS software, supporting geological reference, planning, and research applications requiring an overview of Great Britain's bedrock, superficial deposits, and surrounding seabed sediments.This service is a BGS contribution to the OneGeology project, providing UK onshore geological data at 1:625 000 scale and UK continental shelf seabed sediment data at 1:1 million scale. This map data is collected as part of an ongoing BGS project: Digital Geological Map of Great Britain (DiGMapGB...
