Geological Map of the Maltese Islands - Bedrock
Data identifying landscape areas (shown as polygons) attributed with geological names and rock type descriptions. The scale of the data is 1:10 000 scale. Coverage is provided for the main Maltese Islands. Bedrock geology describes the main mass of solid rocks forming the earth's crust. Bedrock is present everywhere, whether exposed at surface in outcrops or concealed beneath superficial deposits or water bodies. The data includes attribution to identify each rock type (in varying levels of detail). The bedrock has formed over long periods of geological time during the Oligocene, Miocene and Pleistocene epochs. The age of the rocks is identified in the data through their lithostratigraphic name. The data are available in vector format (containing the geometry of each feature linked to a database record describing their attributes) as ESRI shapefiles.
