Abstract:
The Geological Map of Switzerland 1:500,000 covers all of Switzerland and adjoining parts of neighbouring countries. It presents an overview of the distribution of the uppermost rock strata occurring in Switzerland. It thus provides an important foundation and tool for the better understanding of our environment in the scope of sustainable development. It is an essential aid for education in the fields of environmental and earth sciences as well as natural hazards. Compared with the previous edition, which appeared more than 25 years ago, the new version shows a significantly improved level of detail. The new and revised geological data of recent decades have made their mark on the new edition. Thanks to a revised layout, the detailed legend is now easier to read and thus easier to understand.
