Marine geology 1:25 000 (view service)

Marine geology 1:25 000 contains data on the distribution of soils and rocks within the Swedish territorial sea and the Swedish economic zone (EEZ). The product provides, among other things, information about the bottom material, the strength of various sediments and the way in which they form, and the content of organic matter. SGU is responsible for exploring and mapping the bottom conditions within the Swedish territorial sea and the Swedish economic zone (EEZ). The information produced is used as a basis for planning and deciding on the protection and use of the seabed, including the design of marine civil engineering works and environmental monitoring. It is also an important basis for biological inventories and for the Swedish Armed Forces.
