NZL GNS 1:1M Lithostratigraphy

The 1:1,000,000 Geological Map of New Zealand was published in 1972 by the New Zealand Geological Survey, and digitally captured in the mid 1990s with minor topographic and editorial corrections. The map contains both lithostratigraphic and chronostratigraphic units, and major faults. This map will be superceded in 2010 by a new edition generalised from the nearly complete QMAP 1:250,000 Geological Map of New Zealand project.

ATA-SVL GNS 1:250K geological units

The 1:250 000 geological map of South Victoria Land encompasses the area of the southern Ross Sea, including Ross Island, the Dry Valleys and the Royal Society Range. The map is at a pre-press publication stage and this layer shows the lithostratigraphic geological map unit polygons coloured according to age and stratigraphic affiliation.

ATA-SVL GNS 1:250K geological boundaries

The 1:250 000 geological map of South Victoria Land encompasses the area of the southern Ross Sea, including Ross Island, the Dry Valleys and the Royal Society Range. The map is at a pre-press publication stage and this layer shows the lithostratigraphic geological map unit boundary types.

ATA-SVL GNS 1:250K faults

The 1:250 000 geological map of South Victoria Land encompasses the area of the southern Ross Sea, including Ross Island, the Dry Valleys and the Royal Society Range. The map is at a pre-press publication stage and this layer shows the major mappable fault traces exposed at the surface.

ATA-SVL GNS 1:250K fold axes

The 1:250 000 geological map of South Victoria Land encompasses the area of the southern Ross Sea, including Ross Island, the Dry Valleys and the Royal Society Range. The map is at a pre-press publication stage and this layer shows the major mappable fold axial traces exposed at the surface.

ATA-SVL GNS 1:250K intrusive dikes

The 1:250 000 geological map of South Victoria Land encompasses the area of the southern Ross Sea, including Ross Island, the Dry Valleys and the Royal Society Range. The map is at a pre-press publication stage and this layer shows the larger mappable intrusive igneous dikes exposed at the surface.

ATA-SVL GNS 1:250K lineaments

The 1:250 000 geological map of South Victoria Land encompasses the area of the southern Ross Sea, including Ross Island, the Dry Valleys and the Royal Society Range. The map is at a pre-press publication stage and this layer portrays lineaments derived from remote sensing imagery including satellite multi-spectral images, aerial photos and digital terrain models.

ATA-SVL GNS 1:250K map sources

The 1:250 000 geological map of South Victoria Land encompasses the area of the southern Ross Sea, including Ross Island, the Dry Valleys and the Royal Society Range. The map is at a pre-press publication stage and this layer shows the extents of the geological maps from which information has been integrated into the new map.
