The dataset presents three layers of geothermal data from Iceland based on "Atlas of Geothermal Resources in Europe" (2002). Heat-flow density, Temperature at 1000 meters and Temperature at 2000 meters (1:10 000 000).

Mineral deposits are natural accumulations of one or more useful minerals that may provide society with metallic or non-metallic raw materials. The Geological Survey of Canada has been compiling databases for major metallic mineral deposits on Canada-wide and world-wide scale over a three decade period. The most recent compilation was enabled by industry-sponsored World Map and World Minerals Geoscience Database Projects. Global databases for seven important metallic deposit types: lode gold, porphyry-related, nickel-platinum group-chromite, sedimentary exhalative lead-zinc, Mississippi Valley-type zinc-lead, iron oxide-copper-gold (IOCG), and sediment-hosted copper deposits are now available On-Line. Five easy-to-use thematic world geology datasets provide generalized geological context for the global databases.

The Geological Survey of Canada has been compiling databases for major metallic mineral deposits on Canada-wide and world-wide scale over a three decade period. The most recent compilation was enabled by industry-sponsored World Map and World Minerals Geoscience Database Projects. Four Canadian thematic databases for uranium-thorium, vanadium-titanium, lode gold, and molybdenum occurrences are now available On-Line.

The Canadian Geographical Names Service (CGNS) provides an online Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) compliant web mapping service and is compatible with the Canadian Geospatial Data Infracstructure (CGDI). The CGNS WMS allows for custom cartographic styling through the OGC Styled Layer Descriptor (SLD) Specification. The purpose of CGNS is to gather names that have been approved by the Geographical Names Board of Canada (GNBC) and to make these authoritative records available for government and public use. Ce Service de cartes Web (WMS) du Service canadien de toponymie (SCT) est un service Internet qui donne aux concepteurs d'outils cartographiques OGC, un accès aux toponymes et leurs attributs. Grâce à ce service, les développeurs peuvent accéder à nos données de base les plus récentes. Le sous-ensemble des données du SCT qui est offert pour la visualisation est celui des toponymes officiellement approuvés.

The geographical names WFS allows a connection to the Canadian Geographical Names Database (CGNDB). The CGNDB is composed of official and former names approved by the Geographical Names Board of Canada (GNBC). / Le WFS de toponymie permet une connexion à la base de données des toponymes du Canada (BNDT). La BNDT est composée de tous les noms officiels et historiques approuvés par la Commission de Toponymie du Canada (CTC).

Small-Scale NHD Hydrography vector basemap. The National Hydrography Dataset (NHD) is a comprehensive set of digital spatial data that encodes information about naturally occurring and constructed bodies of surface water (lakes, ponds, and reservoirs), paths through which water flows (canals, ditches, streams, and rivers), and related entities such as point features (springs, wells, stream gages, and dams). The information encoded about these features includes classification and other characteristics, delineation, geographic name, position and related measures, a "reach code" through which other information can be related to the NHD, and the direction of water flow. The network of reach codes delineating water and transported material flow allows users to trace movement in upstream and downstream directions. In addition to this geographic information, the dataset contains metadata that supports the exchange of future updates and improvements to the data. The NHD is available nationwide in two seamless datasets, one based on 1:24,000-scale maps and referred to as high resolution NHD, and the other based on 1:100,000-scale maps and referred to as medium resolution NHD. Additional selected areas in the United States are available based on larger scales, such as 1:5,000-scale or greater, and referred to as local resolution NHD. The NHD supports many applications, such as making maps, geocoding observations, flow modeling, data maintenance and stewardship. For additional information, go to http://nhd.usgs.gov.
