Nationwide geophysical database for environmental and raw material data, also known as GERDA (GEophysical Relational DAtabase). The database contains various types of geophysics, including geoelectrics, electromagnetics, borehole logs and seismic. All data is freely available for download on the GEUS website. The database is updated continuously.

The MARTA database contains shallow seismic and acoustic data, information and geological samples. MATRA shows the distribution of marine sand and gravel resources and gives access to reports on raw material surveys. MARTA shows the distribution of marine sand and gravel resources and gives access to reports on raw material surveys. Data has primarily been acquired by GEUS and our partners., MARTA is the official Danish marine raw material database for data reported in accordance with the Danish Raw Material Act. MARTA is used by the raw materials industry and authorities and as a planning tool in connection with raw material extraction and marine construction projects including beach nourishment.

The dataset presents Bouguer gravity anomalies on land and free-air gravity anomalies in Danish marine areas based on gravity measurements from the national gravity database. The Bouguer anomaly is terrain corrected and is used to investigate variations in subsurface mass distribution, while the free-air anomaly at sea reflects variations in the gravity field without full terrain correction. Gravity anomalies are expressed in milligals (mGal). The dataset was produced by DTU Space and represents a consolidated gravimetric foundation for geological and geophysical analyses in Denmark.

The dataset consists of a series of ASTER band ratios combined into colour composite images designed to highlight mineralogical distributions and lithological variability in Northeast Greenland. The ASTER scenes were preprocessed with atmospheric, radiometric and topographic corrections, including radiative transfer modelling using ATCOR-3 in rugged terrain mode. A surface elevation model was applied to adjust illumination effects. Non-outcrop pixels were masked prior to generating the final mosaic. Calibrated radiance data were converted to apparent surface reflectance; however, further calibration against ground-based reflectance measurements was not feasible. The dataset represents a derived remote sensing product and not primary satellite data.

This dataset provides a national overview of all registered earthquakes in Denmark, including time, location, depth and magnitude. The recordings are based on data from GEUS’ national seismic network and comprise both measured earthquakes and subsequently quality-assured observations. The dataset is continuously updated and reflects the best scientific assessment of seismic activity in Denmark, where improved instrumentation and analysis today allow detection of much weaker tremors than historically.

The dataset contains recorded earthquakes and seismic events in Greenland. The data include information on event time, geographic location (epicentre), depth and magnitude for confirmed and suspected earthquakes. The dataset is based on observations from GEUS’ seismic monitoring network and is used for monitoring, research and dissemination of seismic activity in Greenland.

The dataset contains aeromagnetic measurements acquired during 1993–1996 in East and North-East Greenland as part of the AWI-AEROMAG project conducted by the Alfred Wegener Institute (AWI). The measurements represent regional airborne magnetometry and include total magnetic field intensity corrected for diurnal variations and the main geomagnetic field. The survey was carried out to support geological mapping and tectonic analysis of eastern Greenland. The dataset constitutes an important geophysical reference for studies of crystalline basement rocks, sedimentary basins and structural features in the region.

The dataset comprises geophysical survey data available through the Greenland Mineral Resources Portal. The data include both released company data and publicly funded survey data, primarily airborne electromagnetic (AEM) and aeromagnetic (Aeromag) surveys. The AEM Greenland 1994–1998 project encompassed high-resolution, multi-parameter airborne surveys including electromagnetic, magnetic and partly radiometric measurements conducted between 1994 and 1998, producing approximately 75,000 line kilometres of data. The Aeromag projects included high-resolution airborne magnetic surveys conducted in 1992, 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998, 1999, 2001, 2012 and 2013, producing more than 550,000 line kilometres of data. The projects were financed by the governments of Greenland and Denmark. The dataset provides regional geophysical coverage supporting geological interpretation, mineral exploration and geoscientific research in Greenland.

This dataset shows the percentage nitrogen retention in Denmark, i.e. the proportion of nitrogen leached from the root zone that is transformed or retained in the subsurface and surface waters before reaching the coast. Nitrogen retention is calculated using the National Nitrogen Model and represents an average retention for the period 1990–2010. The dataset provides nationwide coverage of spatial variations in nitrogen retention and is used as a basis for assessing nitrogen transport and coastal nutrient loading. The National Nitrogen Model version 2020 is documented in National Nitrogen Model – version 2020, a GEUS special report, including a method report (ISBN 978-87-7871-551-7) and an appendix (ISBN 978-87-7871-552-4), both available from GEUS (in danish).
