Inspire View Service: Hydrogeology/Hydrogeological Map 1: 50 000 of Brandenburg (WMS-GehG-HYK50)

The Interoperable INSPIRE Presentation Service (WMS) Hydrogeology (Hydrogeological Map 1: 50 000 of the State of Brandenburg) provides extensive information on the hydrogeological construction of the subsurface of Brandenburg on a scale 1: 50,000. According to the INSPIRE data specification Geology (D2.8.II.4_v3.0), the contents of the hydrogeological card are INSPIRE-compliant. The WMS includes the following layers: — Aquifer with information on the petrographic designation (lithology), the type of geological unit (geologicUnitType), the approximate width of the hydrogeological unit (approximateThickness), indicating the rock type of the aquifer (hydroGeochemicalRockType) that determines the hydrogeochemical state of the groundwater (hydroGeochemicalRockType), and the index value or value interval to indicate the hazard to the aquifer due to the geological structure, hydrogeological conditions and actual or potential sources of impurities (vulnerabilityPollution), — Aquifer (GE.Aquitard) with information on the petrographic designation (lithology) and the type of geological unit (geologicUnitType). — The compliant INSPIRE view service (WMS) Hydrogeology (Hydrogeological Map 1: 50,000 of Brandenburg) provides comprehensive information on the hydrogeological construction of the subsurface of Brandenburg on a scale of 1: 50,000. The content of the hydrogeological map is compliant to the INSPIRE data specification for the annex theme Geology (D2.8.II.4_v3.0). The WMS includes the following layers: Aquifers (GE.Aquifers) with information on the petrographic name (lithology) and type of geological unit (geologicUnitType), information about the approximate thickness of the hydrogeological unit (approximateThickness), and about the values describing the hydrogeochemical condition of the groundwater environment (hydroGeochemicalRockType), and about the index value or interval of values determining the potential degree of aquifer risk arising from the geological structure, hydrogeological conditions and the existence of real source or potential of contamination (vulnerabilityToPollution), — Aquitards (GE.Aquitards) with information on the petrographic name (lithology) and type of geological unit (geologicUnitType).
