Chapter 2: Digital Data Supplements subsurface dataset Rhine-Meuse delta in the Netherlands ...

Quantitative local determination of these characteristics poses a major challenge in natural environments with a heterogeneous substrate. Geological knowledge on the natural genesis and resulting structure of the subsurface may provide useful information on the spatial variability of substrate characteristics. Here we describe a framework for using geological subsurface information for these assessments. Based on existing digital geological mapping products and knowledge of the geological development of the Rhine-Meuse delta. We then used these spatial divisions in an analysis of digital boreh...
