Dataset description

The spatial distribution of geogenic groundwater background values for hydrogeochemical and physicochemical parameters of the near-surface groundwater bodies is represented based on the HÜK200. Background values are used to describe the nature of the groundwater bodies and provide a basis for decisions on the differentiation between geogenic and conspicuous data. The representation of background values is a contribution of SGD and BGR to describe groundwater bodies and thus serves to implement the European Water Framework Directive (WFD).
