The Geological Map of Greenland at scale 1:2.500.000 provides a comprehensive regional synthesis of the geological evolution of Greenland from the earliest Archaean to the Quaternary. The map presents an integrated overview of Greenland’s geological framework, including Precambrian crystalline basement provinces, major orogenic belts, Phanerozoic sedimentary basins and widespread volcanic provinces. Greenland is characterised by large exposures of continental crust dominated by Archaean and early Proterozoic shield rocks that stabilised as part of the Laurentian shield. Younger geological elements are mainly developed along the margins of the shield, where sedimentation, deformation and magmatic activity reflect successive tectonic regimes through time. The map illustrates the distribution and relationships of these geological units and highlights the structural and stratigraphic architecture of Greenland and adjacent offshore areas. The map integrates onshore and offshore geological information and serves as a regional reference for geological interpretation, research, education and resource-related studies in Greenland.

This dataset represents the structure and topography of the Top Chalk surface, i.e. the top of the Chalk Group (including Upper Cretaceous to Danian), in the Danish subsurface. The map illustrates regional variations in the depth and structural configuration of the chalk surface from the central North Sea to the eastern Danish areas. It is based on an integrated geological and geophysical interpretation of seismic profiles, well data and earlier mapping. The map provides an essential basis for geological, geophysical and subsurface reservoir analyses.

The dataset comprises a systematic inventory of onshore petroleum seeps and stains in Greenland. The inventory includes information on approximately 130 localities distributed across Palaeozoic, Mesozoic and Cenozoic sedimentary basins in Greenland. For each locality, coordinates, site descriptions, classification of seep type, geological context, sample numbers and references to reports and publications are recorded. The classification includes oil seeps, gas seeps, mud diapirs and gas-rich springs, oil stains in volcanics, carbonates and sandstones, solid macroscopic bitumen, and fluid inclusions and other evidence of micro-seepage. The dataset synthesises existing knowledge of petroleum systems in Greenland and provides a comprehensive overview of documented natural hydrocarbon occurrences onshore.

The dataset comprises digital element distribution maps based on geochemical analyses of stream sediments collected in West and South Greenland. The maps were produced as part of the geochemical mapping programme underlying the Geochemical Atlas of West and South Greenland. The data represent analyses of various elements in defined grain-size fractions and provide a regional overview of geochemical variations.

The dataset comprises a geological map of the Danish Central Graben at a scale of 1:200,000 presenting regional maps of ‘Top Chalk’ and the Post-Chalk Group in terms of two-way travel time, depth and interval velocity. The map was published in 1995 as part of the DGU Map Series no. 47 and was produced as part of a comprehensive geological mapping of the Danish Central Graben. The mapping is based on interpretation of seismic data supplemented by information from boreholes. The map covers the Danish part of the Central Graben and parts of the eastern North Sea block, and adjacent areas in the Norwegian, British and German sectors are included where data were available in order to define regional structural relationships. The map sheet comprises several thematic sub-maps that together describe regional variations in structure and stratigraphy.
