Geological map sheets of the Baltic Sea to download
Geological mapping is one of the basic tasks of PGI-NRI. For Polish sea areas, these tasks are carried out at the PGI-NRI Marine Geology Branch in Gdańsk. Work on the first cartographic study on a scale of 1: 200,000 began in 1983 and ended in 1995. The result of these works was the development of 12 sheets of the "Geological Map of the Baltic Sea Bottom" with explanatory texts.
