The dataset comprises more than 6,400 oblique aerial photographs acquired during the systematic 1:500,000 geological mapping programme in North Greenland carried out by the Geological Survey of Greenland (now GEUS) between 1978 and 1985. The photographs document steep fjord and valley walls and were collected as part of geological field investigations. The images have been digitised and made available through a web-based interface, allowing users to access individual photographs, their geographic locations and associated geological coding linked to the regional geological map. The dataset represents a systematic visual documentation of geological features in North and Northeast Greenland.

The dataset contains polygons representing historical exploration and exploitation licences for mineral resources in Greenland. The data are based on geographic information provided via WFS by the Ministry of Mineral Resources in Greenland and are redistributed without modification of the original boundaries. The dataset provides an overview of former licence areas and their spatial extent.

The dataset contains polygons representing selected protected and regulated areas in Greenland relevant to mineral activities. The areas include UNESCO World Heritage Sites, nature protection areas, and zones with specific restrictions or prohibitions on mineral activities. The dataset is converted from a WFS service provided by the Ministry of Mineral Resources in Greenland and is used as a geographic reference in the assessment of exploration and exploitation licences. The polygons represent administrative boundaries and do not constitute a legally binding representation of current legislation.

The dataset shows global bathymetry based on The General Bathymetric Chart of the Oceans (GEBCO) 2019. The dataset represents a continuous model of seafloor topography derived from a combination of multibeam, singlebeam and satellite altimetry data. The original global grid has been reprojected to UTM zone 24N to support regional use and integration with other geological and geophysical datasets covering Greenland and the North Atlantic.

Kartet viser utbredelsen av steinkobbe. Latin name: Phoca vitulina. Family: Phocidae. Distribution: Sub Arctic waters along the east and west coasts of both the North Atlantic and north Pacific. In Norway they occur in colonies along the Norwegian mainland coast and on Prins Karls Forland in Svalbard. The harbour seals occur mainly in nearshore areas that are protected against wave action.

The dataset comprises a geological structural map of the Danish Basin at a scale of 1:500,000 showing the structure of the chalk surface (Top Chalk). The map was published in 1991 as part of the DGU Map Series no. 7 and is based on regional geological interpretation of borehole data and seismic data. The data basis includes deep onshore boreholes, seismic profiles from hydrocarbon exploration, and seismic surveys from the inner Danish waters. The map covers Denmark and adjacent marine areas and was produced to support regional geological understanding of the structure of the chalk surface in the Danish Basin.

This dataset describes the intrusions and magmatic complexes of Greenland, forming a dedicated information layer within the GEUS GMOMDB2 database, displayed via the Greenland Mineral Occurrence Map (GMOM2). It includes 194 registered intrusions and complexes grouped into 23 magmatic provinces. The data are compiled from GEUS geological maps, published sources, and company reports. The Palaeogene intrusions and complexes of East Greenland (66–75°N) are related to the opening of the North Atlantic and the influence of the ancestral Icelandic mantle plume. The magmatic evolution includes flood basalts, dyke swarms, and intrusive activity from 61 to 13 Ma. Economic mineralisation is documented in several complexes, including the Skaergaard palladium deposit and the Malmbjerg porphyry molybdenum deposit, representing classic examples of rift- and post-rift-related mineral systems. The dataset provides harmonised, quality-controlled geological information to support exploration and research activities in Greenland.

Results from laboratory analyses of related to monitoring the quality of water wells and drinking water taps in household. This dataset is part of GEUS' nation-wide database for shallow boreholes, the common public database and is part of Denmarks Environmental Portal. The database is publicly available and is continually updated.

The seamless digital geological map is based on the digitisation and harmonisation of 21 geological map sheets at 1:100 000 scale, originally published by GGU/GEUS between 1966 and 2011. This edition updates and expands the 2019 version, which included 16 sheets, by integrating five additional 1:100 000 sheets and selected information from 1:500 000 scale maps in areas lacking detailed coverage. The map also incorporates a simplified geological interpretation of Bjørneøen and Storeø in Godthåbsfjorden based on detailed mapping by Claus Østergaard (2005). The dataset provides a consistent, seamless geological framework optimised for digital display at the 1:100 000 scale.

Uniform vertical aerial photographic coverage of Greenland was achieved between 1978 and 1987 at a scale of 1:150.000 by Mark Hurd Aerial Surveys, Inc., Minneapolis, Minnesota, U.S.A., on behalf of the Danish Geodetic Institute. The photography provided systematic nationwide coverage and formed a fundamental reference dataset for mapping and geodetic purposes. The black-and-white photographs were acquired using a Wild RC-10 camera equipped with a super wide-angle lens (focal length 88 mm). The aircraft used was a Gates Learjet 25C, flying at approximately 14 km altitude to achieve the image scale of 1:150.000. To minimise blind areas caused by steep mountain slopes in combination with the wide-angle lens, photographs were acquired with 80% forward overlap and 40% side overlap. Photo centre coordinates were established through aerotriangulation performed by the Danish Geodata Agency. The dataset has subsequently been used for mapping, aerotriangulation and scanning applications.
