Basic data
In addition to historical maps and digital 3D models, geological, geophysical and geotechnical datasets are indispensable for the sustainable management of our living space. GeoCover, as geological 2D model, depicts all of Switzerland geologically at the scale of 1:25'000.

2D Geology
The Swiss Geological Survey’s geological maps currently form the nationwide dataset relating to the structure of the underground in Switzerland. The Swiss Geological Survey thus makes an important contribution to the exploration and sustainable use of underground space.

3D Geology
Digital geological 3D models are an important tool for visualising complex issues in the subsurface in a simple and understandable way. They make an important contribution to subsurface planning.
