Spanish Land Movements Map at a scale of 1:1.000.000

Map delimiting the areas with different types of land movements, representing the most intense and frequent movements. It therefore shows the distribution and extent of the most problematic areas from a practical point of view. Land movements are classified into four main groups: horizontal component movements (landslides and landslides), vertical component movements (subsidence and subsidence, and expansive clays), unstable processes in coastal areas and movements related to mining operations. Areas with significant erosion processes are also included. This map, published in 1987, was drawn up entirely by staff of the Geological Survey of Spain in response to the need for information on geological hazards and risks on a national scale.

Purpose

Land movements can affect society in different ways, endangering people's safety, destroying buildings or disabling infrastructures; they therefore constitute a geological risk. Spain, due to its rugged relief, climatic conditions and geological characteristics, is a country where this type of phenomena constitutes a real threat. The Spanish Land Movement Map at a scale of 1:1,000,000, in addition to constituting an inventory of spatial distribution, has been drawn up as a first-rate reference for territorial planning at national and regional level in terms of geological risks, allowing an effective approximation for more detailed studies.

Specific usage

It is a national map, at a scale of 1:1,000,000, so its use is limited by scale, i.e. it should be used for national planning as an approximation for regional studies related to recent and current geological dynamics, research and territorial planning.

Statement

The map was drawn up from the compilation of cartographic information at scales 1:25,000, 1:50,000 and 1:200,000 produced by the IGME, unpublished cartography, Doctoral Theses, Dissertations and other published works.

Subsequently, the phenomena to be included in the cartography were established and the legend of surface formations was drawn up. Next, the processes of synthesis, reclassification, generalisation and exaggeration were carried out for the final production of the map.

The digitisation process was carried out in 1991 from the printing plates and the definitive normalisation and generation of symbolised files (.lyr) and cartography, in version 8.3 of ArcGis, in 2003.

Description

Bibliographic information; Topographic base. Geological and related maps at various scales. Climatic information.

Description

Map preparation: Preparation of the land movements legend. Classification. Representation of point data. Determination of areas with current and potential movements according to the classification established from the information collected.

Description

Digitisation:Inventory, selection and codification of cartographic phenomena. Digitisation, geometric treatment and symbolisation.

Association of attributes to spatial objects and creation of tables.

Checking of digital information, detection and correction of errors.
