Why is OneGeology data not harmonised?
OneGeology is a dynamic set of geological map data served mostly on a national basis by individual geological surveys and other bodies (e.g. the polar and marine surveys and research bodies) to a web portal and as such will be frequently updated and improved by them and reflect the most up to date data they possess. Because of the diverse nature and the variety of data served, attempting to harmonise it would be a lengthy and difficult task. OneGeology’s aims are to make data accessible in the best format currently available.
