BGR Borehole map
An on-line interactive map showing borehole data for Germany. Coverage is for selected regions only. The data shows locations depths and owners of boreholes but not geological information. The borehole location map contains the topographic backdrop map of different sources (depending on the scale factor) with symbols for borehole locations shown in scales better than 1:100000. The best details are shown on the basis of the 1:50000 scale map series (TK50). All backdrop maps originate from Bundesamt für Kartographie und Geodäsie (BKG). More detailed maps (e.g. TK25 or DGK5) are not available in this application. The connected database does contain master data sets for all boreholes. Further freely available details, e.g. strata or groundwater data, are provided via WFS technology and are displayed in the map client. Non-freely available data can be ordered by contacting the State Geological Surveys.

The information offered on the Borehole viewer of Germany is subject to the following restrictions:
1. Each federal state publishes a specific subset of approved borehole data.
2. Detailed data such as information about strata, installation and casing may be confidential.
3. All borehole data are offered in a generalized and simplified form based on the borehole data exchange format called BoreholeML.
B) Only the competent Geological Survey of the federal state may provide detailed information in particular concerning confidential borehole data. (see points of contact)
C) The service is continuously improved and rolled out to other federal states of Germany. Each Geological Survey is updating its drilling information in different intervals.
The restrictions result from specific regional regulatory frame works as well as from the use of the BoreholeML exchange format. The federal states operate with individual data formats which can be exchanged and used interorable only due to BoreholeML. The German borehole map is an example for a joint application made possible by the conversion of different source data into the common BoreholeML exchange format.

))
- Supplemental Information
-
Each drilling has to be notified to the respective Geological Survey as required by the "Lagerstättengesetz" (deposit law). Therefore there is a legal requirement to report drilling data. However the dissemination of this data in the Borehole viewer is done on a voluntary basis.
