Purpose

Hydrogeological information and maps are needed to define and delimit groundwater bodies with greater precision, so that this information can be used to: indicate the location and limits of groundwater bodies, define the general characteristics of the overlying strata of the catchment area, sources of contamination, etc. And to carry out the additional characterisation of the m.a.s. at risk, where it is necessary to establish their recharge areas, the characteristics of the chemical composition of the water, the location of the groundwater extraction points, the protected areas and their characteristics.

As a preliminary work, the continuous lithostratigraphic map of Spain was produced in digital format, a fundamental starting point for the preparation of the permeability and hydrogeological maps of Spain at a scale of 1:200,000, continuous and in digital format.

All of them were prepared by means of a "Collaboration Agreement between the Ministry of the Environment (General Secretariat for Territory and Biodiversity. Directorate General for Water) and the Geological Survey of Spain for the execution of technical works in relation to the application of the Water Framework Directive on groundwater'' signed in 2004.

Supplemental Information

The document "Preparation of the hydrogeological map of Spain at a scale of 1:200,000, continuous and in digital format" (2009) can be consulted in the Documentation Service, where the process of preparation and description of the information prepared is described in detail.

There is an application for distribution on DVD, published in 2007, which contains the geological and cartographic information, tables, symbology libraries and map compositions. It has a consultation application and a map viewer.

The lithostratigraphic map of Spain at a scale of 1:200,000 can be viewed and consulted in the Groundwater Information System (SIAS), of the Geological Survey of Spain (IGME); and in the Integrated Water Information System (SIA), of the Ministry of the Environment, Rural and Marine Affairs (MARM), lithology layer.

Units of distribution

Unidades cartográficas (LPLIT): Recintos poligonales litológicos con las unidades cartográficas codificadas según el campo FH. Cada recinto o polígonos tiene un códigos numérico correspondiente a la formación geológica según la columna litoestratigráfica (FH). La descripción litológica completa, la descripción geocronológica y la clasificación de permeabilidad se almacenan en una tabla externa (Tabla litperm.dat) que tiene un registro por cada formación litoestratigráfica en el mapa. Para favorecer la utilización y correcta simbolización de la información generada, se crea otra tabla externa (Tabla colores.lut) que relaciona cada una de las formaciones con el color que se le debe asignar al realizar la composición de la leyenda y mapa litoestratigráfico. Contactos y fracturas (LPCYF): Líneas que delimitan recintos poligonales litológicos (contactos) y fallas o líneas de fractura con o sin cambio de identificación litológica. Todos los elementos lineales de esta capa llevarán asociado su código en un campo denominado ID según la librería de símbolos MAGNA. Estructuras de plegamiento (LPEST): Líneas que representan la traza axial de los pliegues. Todos los elementos lineales de esta capa llevarán asociado su código en un campo denominado ID según la librería de símbolos MAGNA.

Statement

The preparation of the lithostratigraphic map involved a series of stages:

1.-Zoning of the Spanish territory according to fundamentally geological and hydrogeological criteria and adapting them to the limits of the topographic sheets at a scale of 1:200,000 established by the IGN.

2.- Compilation of information for each of the zones.

3.- Elaboration of a synthetic chronostratigraphic legend for each of the zones.

4.- Creation of each of the zonal cartographies based on the zonal legends.

5.- Conformation of zones (cases), with the cartographic case of the zones in order to obtain a map without discontinuities.

Elaboration of the lithostratigraphic legend, through the unification and synthesis of all the cartographic terms represented in the zonal legends. Carried out according to chronostratigraphic criteria established in the different geological domains defined for each period in the Spanish territory.

7.- Lithostratigraphic map, made from the lithostratigraphic legend taking into account the scale 1:200,000.

Description

Zoning:

The Spanish territory was divided into 10 zones according to fundamentally geological and hydrogeological criteria. The limits of these zones were established taking into account, in addition to the aforementioned geological criteria, the limits of the topographic sheets at a scale of 1:200,000 established by the IGN to which these zones have been adapted. This distribution allows their subsequent treatment at a scale of 1:200,000, facilitating their representation and working approach.

The work zones established in this study are as follows:

Zone 1. Northern Iberian Massif; Zone 2. North; Zone 3. Ebro-Catalonia; Zone 4. Duero; Zone 5. Southern Iberian Massif; Zone 6. Tagus-Mancha; Zone 7. Levante-Ibérica; Zone 8. Guadalquivir; Zone 9. Balearic Islands; Zone 10.

Description

Compilation of information:

For each of these areas, a compilation and analysis of the cartographic information available at that time was carried out under the following premises: a) That it was in digital format, b) That it came from previous syntheses at a scale of 1:200,000 or, failing that, as close to this scale as possible, and

c) When the previous premises were not met, recourse was had to 1:50,000 (MAGNA) in digital format or other cartographies.

Description

Zonal legend:

For each of the working zones, a synthetic chronostratigraphic legend was prepared for all the cartographic units represented in the zones.

In these legends, an attempt was made to maintain those cartographic units that present an important lithostratigraphic development in each zone, both due to their cartographic representation and their singularity, also incorporating those that show a high hydrogeological interest, either due to their lithological nature (high permeability) or because they are considered to form an essential part of the definition of the aquifer.

Description

Zonal cartography:

For each of the ten zones the cartography was carried out, maintaining the same criteria as those already indicated for the production of the legend, that is to say, maintaining the representation of the cartographic units that present a singularity of lithostratigraphic and hydrogeological character, taking into account that the established working scale is 1:200,000.

The contacts between the cartographic units were arranged according to the regulations established for this cartography. Normal, unconformable and intrusive contacts were represented, as well as faults, thrusts and folding structures.

Description

Conformation of zones:

Once the synthesis of each of the zones had been completed, and due to the diverse origin of the starting cartography, it was necessary to cartographically marry these together to obtain a map without discontinuities between the limits of the different zones.

Description

Lithostratigraphic legend:

Subsequently, the unification and synthesis of all the cartographic terms represented in the zonal legends was carried out. This legend was made according to chronostratigraphic criteria established in the different geological domains that have been defined for each period in the Spanish territory.

Description

Lithostratigraphic Map:

Once the lithostratigraphic legend was completed, the lithostratigraphic map of the Spanish territory was drawn up, taking into account that the scale of this cartography is 1,200,000. In this cartography, the main aim has been to unify the minimum dimensions of outcrops, eliminating those that do not have a cartographic extension that allows their visualisation and integration within the geological set. Likewise, an attempt has been made to unify the criteria for the representation of structural elements, making it possible to differentiate the main structures affecting a geological domain, their distribution and density of structural affection.

Description

computer processing:

Integration of all information in a Geographic Information System, establishing criteria on the characteristics of the data and its scope.

Description

The rock units of the sheet separated by different types of contacts are represented, together with the tectonic structure, faults and map traces of folds, the orientation and dip of planar and linear elements contained in the rocks, structural and textural singularities of igneous and metamorphic rocks, water points, mineral deposits and indications, presence of fossils and other elements of punctual representation.
