The Neotectonic Map expresses those structural, morphological, stratigraphic and other features that show relatively recent movements (from the period considered neotectonic), as well as the type of stress to which the peninsula is subjected. Its objectives are to identify deformations from the Middle Miocene - Upper Miocene boundary to the present day. The materials have been classified into six categories, two for volcanic materials differentiated by age; and four for the rest of the materials, with four subdivisions according to age. It also includes tectonic structures, stress and deformation directions, diapiric structures and other related phenomena, all with age expression. The map contains information on the Spanish continental shelf. This map, of national scope, has been produced by the Geological Survey of Spain in collaboration with the National Radioactive Waste Company (ENRESA).
