Dataset description
The WMS BSK1000 (INSPIRE) provides basic information on the spatial distribution of energy resources and mineral raw materials (‘stones and earth’, industrial minerals and ores) in Germany on a scale of 1:1,000,000. The BSK1000 is published by the Federal Institute for Geosciences and Natural Resources in cooperation with the State Geological Surveys of Germany. According to the Data Specification on Mineral Resources (D2.8.III.21) the map provides INSPIRE-compliant data. The WMS BSK1000 (INSPIRE) contains five layers:
MR.Mine displays important mines.
MR.MineralOccurence.Commodity.Point.EnergyResourcesAndMineralRawMaterials displays small-scale energy resources and mineral raw materials as points.
MR.MineralOccurence.Commodity.Polygon.DistributionOfSalt displays the distribution of salt.
MR.MineralOccurrence.Commodity.Polygon.EnergyResources displays large-scale energy resources as polygons.
MR.MineralOccurrence.Commodity.Polygon.MineralRawMaterials displays large-scale mineral raw materials as polygons.
The user obtains detailed information on the mineral raw materials, energy resources and mines via the getFeatureInfo request.
Notes regarding the portrayal:
The colouring of the large- and small-scale energy resources and mineral raw materials as well as of the mines correspond largely to the colouring of the KOR250 respectively KOR250 (INSPIRE). In addition, the gas and oil polygons are coloured in green and red according to common international practice. The black coal polygons are displayed in their original colour grey. So the colours of the mine symbols correspond largely to the KOR250 respectively KOR250 (INSPIRE) coloring. Only the Salt and Potash Mine symbols have their original color. All mine symbols are BGR symbols. The distribution areas of the Triassic and Zechstein salt show the corresponding geochronological INSPIRE colours (see Data Specification on Geology D2.8.II.4_v3.0). The distribution area of salt Diapirism is displayed in a BGR colour.
