BGS Geology - 10k (DiGMapGB-10) Mass Movement version 2
2010
creation
http://data.bgs.ac.uk/id/dataHolding/13606392
Data identifying landscape areas (shown as polygons) attributed with type of mass movement e.g. landslip. The scale of the data is 1:10 000 scale. Onshore coverage is partial with approximately 30% of England, Scotland and Wales available in the version 2 data release. BGS intend to continue developing coverage at this scale; current focus is to include all large priority urban areas, along with road and rail transport corridors. Mass movement describes areas where deposits have moved down slope under gravity to form landslips. These landslips can affect bedrock, superficial or artificial ground. Mass movement deposits are described in the BGS Rock Classification Scheme Volume 4. However the data also includes foundered strata, where ground has collapsed due to subsidence (this is not described in the Rock Classification Scheme). Caution should be exercised with this data; historically BGS has not always recorded mass movement events and due to the dynamic nature of occurrence significant changes may have occurred since the data was released. The data are available in vector format (containing the geometry of each feature linked to a database record describing their attributes) as ESRI shapefiles and are available under BGS data licence.

The BGS Geology 10k dataset is a digital representation of the geology of Great Britain at 1: 10 000 scale. It is a compilation of digital tiles derived from previously published and unpublished maps, archive information and results of field mapping campaigns. The mapping, description and classification of rocks are based upon the interpretations and evidence available at the time of survey, or time of re-evaluation for modifications/correction. The data has been digitally captured from paper record, originally using Bentley MicroStation and latterly ESRI ArcGIS software. Post capture processing has occurred to combine geometry and attribution from existing BGS data resources. Quality control checks are run on individual data batches prior and subsequent to their integration into the main data mosaic. The source dataset is dynamic in nature with periodic comprehensive data releases.
