Geological engineers have mostly been involved in geotechnical problems since the beginning of 19 century. Engineering geological maps and field data are needed to solve these problems. The amount of data for these maps is extremely large, so putting all the map elements on the map sheet causes difficulties while solving problems. The magic words, Geographic Information System (GIS) is a tool f...

Abstract. Lithological maps contain information about the different lithotypes cropping out in an area. At variance with geological maps, portraying formations, lithological may differ as a function of their purpose. Here, we describe preparation map Italy at 1:100 000 scale, obtained from classification comprehensive digital database and aimed describing geomechanical properties. We first full...

Three-dimensional (3D) geological models are important representations of the results of regional geological surveys. However, the process of constructing 3D geological models from two-dimensional (2D) geological elements remains difficult and is not necessarily robust. This paper proposes a method of migrating from 2D elements to 3D models. First, the geological interfaces were constructed usi...

The program 'was designed to augment geological mapping and metalbgenic studies in the wea, conducted by Maclntyre et a / . (1987) and Maclntyre and Desjardins (I9XXa. h, unpublisted data). Their database and geological map were the starting points for the project. Geological mapping of the ncrthern part of the Babine Mountains Recreation Area, which was not included in the previous investi...

Liguria is a small region in Northwestern Italy which characterized by significant and valuable geoheritage. The 1:250,000 map presented this paper displays the 120 geosites of Liguria, officially approved regional national authorities, framed context geological landscapes region. were obtained categorizing thematizing geological, lithological geomorphological data macro-units with similar char...
