Geotopes

Description

Geotopes are earth-historical formations of inanimate nature that convey insights into the evolution of the earth and life. They include excavations of rocks, soils, minerals and fossils, as well as individual natural creations and natural landscapes. Geotopes have been systematically recorded in Bavaria since 1985 and registered in the geotope cadastre of the State Office for the Environment. The layer “Geotope” shows the location of the geotopes of Bavaria. In addition to the name and number of the geotope in the geotope, the position as Gauss-Krüger coordinate (right and high value) and the geological spatial unit to which the object belongs are attached as attributes. In addition, a descriptive profile is linked to all important key data and, if necessary, the number in the series “Bavaria’s 100 Most Beautiful Geotopes” is indicated. Please note: This dataset is not up-to-date and incomplete, as some geotopes are not published in general by the State Office for the Environment (reasons: Private land, premises, particularly sensitive and endangered objects).
