As the department of the Confederation responsible for earth sciences, the Swiss Geological Survey is principally concerned with the following tasks: organising national geological, geotechnical and geophysical surveys, gathering the necessary data, processing and compiling these data in the form of geological maps, and publishing reports, recommendations and guidelines in the fields to which geology is applied (engineering geology and environmental geology).The presented layers (tectonic lineaments and geological units) give a broad overview of the composition and major features of the underlying structure of Switzerland. (Revision: SVN-53)

1GE SGS 1:1M Geologic Units (OGE_1M_surface_GeologicUnit)
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. This product is part of the GeoMaps 500 series. It is available as a printed map (folded or plano), pixelmap or vector dataset. For more information on the availability and the format of this product please visit our Geological Data Viewer (www.geologieviewer.ch). This layer is specifically tailored to the Project OneGeology Europe
1GE SGS 1:1M Faults (OGE_1M_Surface_GeologicStructure)
The Tectonic Map of Switzerland 1:500,000 illustrates the structural and tectonic units of the entire area of Switzerland and adjoining regions: here only the tectonic faults are illustrated. It constitutes an excellent tool for discovering Switzerland geologically and for understanding its environment. It is also an essential aid for education in the earth and environmental sciences. This product is part of the GeoMaps 500 series. It is available as a printed map (folded or plano), pixelmap or vector dataset.
