Purpose

This map aimed to present in a global and standardised way (UNESCO, IAH), the hydrogeological characteristics of the geological formations and the spatial distribution of the different types of aquifers. It is a synthesis of the national hydrogeological knowledge updated up to 1991.

Specific usage

The Permeability Map of Spain at a scale of 1:1,000,000 is mainly used for general works related to groundwater. It also has a clear didactic interest as it presents a global vision of the distribution of hydrogeological formations and aquifers.

Statement

The original map is the Hydrogeological Map of Spain at scale 1:1.000.000 published in 1991. The map of Permeabilities of Spain at a scale of 1:1,000,000 is the hydrogeological map classified according to permeability. Permeability is represented by colours, while lithostratigraphy or hydrogeology is represented by symbolisation of the materials.

It is a synthesis of the permeable hydrogeological formations and aquifers at national level, resulting from the systematic studies carried out by the IGME until 1991 on the hydrogeological characteristics of the Spanish territory, determining the location of the aquifers, evaluating their degree of exploitation, hydrodynamic characteristics, resources and reserves, and the quality and contamination of their waters.

The map has been prepared by the Geological Survey of Spain in compliance with its specific functions.

Various publications on hydrogeology and other specific sources as well as theses and dissertations from different universities.

The digitalisation process of the map and the legend was carried out in 1999 from the printing plates, generating the corresponding coverages in ArcInfo format.

In 1999 the Hydrogeological Map of Spain was republished on paper at a scale of 1:1,000,000, incorporating the Hydrogeological Units of Spain.
