  • The Tectonic Map of the Iberian Peninsula and Balearic Islands has been made according to the guidelines given by the elaboration of the International Tectonic Map of Europe in the 1960s. The principles of representation adopted in this map have a double purpose: to differentiate the major structural elements of the earth's crust, and to record the earth's dynamics in the past. Map of the geographical distribution of the large structural units of the Iberian Peninsula and the Balearic Islands classified into two large groups: platform areas and orogens, from which three units have been derived: Hercynian Mountains, Alpine Mountains and Platform, Mesozoic and Tertiary areas. The cartographic units represented have been delimited based on their temporal relationships with the age of deformation, in the case of the Cordilleras. The structural relations between the units are reflected by the trace of the large folding structures and the faults. The different degrees of metamorphism to which the different rock groups have been subjected are also included.

  • 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.

  • GEOLOGICAL CARTOGRAPHY is the representation of surface materials on the basis of their lithological, stratigraphic, structural, age, etc. characteristics. It is composed of the following levels of information: Z2800MRGEO: Cartographic units, differentiated geological enclosures; Z2800MPGEO: Geological enclosure labels; Z2800MLGEO: Auxiliary anchor lines of the geological polygon labels; Z2800MLCON: Contact and fault lines. Linear entities of diverse origin; Z2800MPBUZ: Points and labels of point entities and structural measures.

  • Map with the chronolithostratigraphic units of the Valencian Community accompanied by faults and folding structures. It is a unified geological synthesis based on IGME maps of this territory at 1:200.000 and 1:50.000 scale.

  • Historical data of the surveys carried out for the investigation of the different aquifers of Spain, the result of the collaboration between the Geological and Mining Institute of Spain (IGME), with the National Institute of Agrarian Reform and Development (IRYDA), before the National Institute of Colonization (INC). The surveys were conducted mainly between 1950 and 1990

  • Database of the Spanish Inventory of Places of Geological Interest (IELIG) which, in accordance with Law 42/2007, must be drawn up and updated by the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and the Environment, with the collaboration of the Autonomous Communities and scientific institutions. Royal Decree 1274/2011, entrusts the IGME with the completion of this inventory, without prejudice to the actions that the Autonomous Communities, in the use of their powers, carry out to complete it in their respective territories. Includes LIGs from the former IGME national inventory (developed basically between 1978 and 1988) and MAGNA geological mapping projects, plus sites that come from the IGME inventory carried out with the methodology designed for the IELIG but which have not been collected by the official autonomous inventories.

  • Cartography of olymetallic sulphides deposits in which the mineralogical characterization, metallogenetic data and location are described, among other elements.

  • Spanish national inventory of land movements. Includes land movements of gravitational geological origin affecting Spanish territory, such as landslide movements: landslides, landslides, flows, etc., vertical movements: subsidies, collapses, expansiveness and underwater landslides. It does not include movements of tectonic origin such as those produced by earthquakes or continental drift or of volcanic origin. BD-MOVES is structured in two blocks or sets of georeferenced spatial information: the one referring to the description of the intrinsic and relatively invariable characteristics of the movement of the terrain and the one referring to the different activity events that produced these movements, including morphometry, triggering factors and damages, among other data.

  • The Lithological Map of the Iberian Peninsula, Balearic and Canary Islands at a scale of 1:1,000,000 is a map produced by the Geological Survey of Spain (IGME) based on the Geological Map of the Iberian Peninsula, Balearic and Canary Islands published in 1995. The cartographic units represented in it have been established using lithological criteria, with the lithological association defining the limits of each unit. The geological information on the Iberian Peninsula and the Balearic Islands is in UTM projection, zone 30, Postdam datum. The information for the Canary Islands is in UTM projection, zone 28, datum Pico de las Nieves. The map is distributed free of charge in shape format through the IGME website.
