The dataset contains bedding dip elements derived from the Basic Geological Map of Bosnia and Herzegovina at a scale of 1:100,000 (BGM). The data represent the spatial location and orientation of geological strata, including the strike direction and dip angle of the layers. The bedding dip elements form an integral part of the geological documentation of the BGM and are used for the interpretation of the geological structure and structural relationships of the terrain, as well as for geological and other professional analyses.
Bedding dip elements are used to represent the spatial orientation of geological strata, including their strike direction and dip angle. The data provide a professional basis for interpreting the geological structure and structural relationships of the terrain, producing and interpreting geological maps and profiles, as well as for geological, hydrogeological, and engineering geological analyses, spatial planning, and scientific research and educational purposes.
The data on bedding dip elements were derived from the Basic Geological Map of Bosnia and Herzegovina at a scale of 1:100,000 (BGM). The bedding dip elements form an integral part of the geological documentation of the BGM and were extracted and digitized from the original cartographic documentation. The data are the result of geological mapping and investigations carried out during the preparation of the Basic Geological Map of Bosnia and Herzegovina, the production of which began in 1961 and was completed in the early 1990s.
