Digital Dataset of European Groundwater Resources
Entry ID: EUSOILS_GW

[ Update this Record ]

Summary
Abstract: A comprehensive picture, at European Union scale, of the aquifers and their
characteristics is available in digital form. In 1982, a study by the European
Commission provided a complete catalogue of national water resources for
several Member States of the European Union (Belgium, Federal Republic of
Germany, Denmark, France, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands and United
Kingdom).

This catalogue comprised a series of groundwater resources maps of Europe, at
scale 1:500,000 ; there were 38 map sheets covering four themes:

-Inventory of aquifers;
-Hydrogeology of aquifers;
-Groundwater abstraction;
-Potential additional groundwater resources.
