Geotechnical investigation site

The term “geotechnical investigation site” refers to locations where geotechnical (surveys and instrumentation) and geophysical data are available. These data include: - **Geotechnical investigation sites (site_inv_geotech_p) :** Geotechnical surveys produced by or for the Ministry from the 1990s, from the active database of the Directorate of Geotechnics and Geology (DGG). Data is added as and when validated. - **BDG geotechnical investigation sites (site_inv_geotech_bdg_p) :** Geotechnical drilling and drilling from an “inactive” database entrusted to the DGG by the Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources (MERN), since the mid-1980s. These are drilling and survey data compiled by the MERN in the 70s and 80s for “predictive” or “geotechnical soil suitability” mapping campaigns.**This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**
