Continuous Geological Mapping Scale 1:50,000, GEODE

This map represents the result of the cartographic homogenisation of the MAGNA geological map series (National Geological Cartography at a scale of 1:50.000). Series that integrates 1143 maps. As a consequence of the long process involved in the historical execution of this series, there are differences between its initial and final phases, in terms of criteria for assigning geological units, level of detail, continuity of geological units and structures at the edges of sheets, coding and symbologies. With the aim of correcting these problems, the GEODE PLAN was initiated in 2004, which constitutes the institutional support for the generation of a continuous digital geological map at a scale of 1:50,000. The PLAN integrates 19 Regional Projects linked to their corresponding geological zones. Its fundamental objectives are threefold: - To provide cartographic continuity to the geological sheets of the MAGNA series within each region. - To generate a unified legend of geological units for each region. - To adapt the geological coverage to a uniform topographic base, generated specifically for the GEODE PLAN from the national topographic map 1:25000 of the IGN.

Purpose

This cartopraphy is the result of the GEODE continuous geological mapping plan, it solves the problems of continuity in sheet edges of the previous MAGNA 50.000 series. It unifies criteria and offers a unique legend for each major region.

Description

This Cartografía continua was made within the GEODE plan from the pre-existing MAGNA E.1:50.000 series, improved with more recent geological cartographies made by the IGME and by other institutions, such as the Universities of Oviedo and Salamanca, coming, in the latter case, from licentiate and doctoral theses and other research works, both published and unpublished. This cartographic work has been carried out by Luis González Menéndez and Nemesio Heredia Carballo of the IGME, with the main collaboration of Alberto Marcos Vallaure of the University of Oviedo, under the technical supervision of the IGME.
