This digital soil map shows the geology 1 meter below surface, just beneath ploughing- and culture layers. The map is digitized from redrafted maps originating from fieldwork, where soil samples are collected using a charting spear in a 100 m grid throughout the country. This map is a result of systematic geological mapping, and is an ongoing effort. This version 4.0 from 2015 classifies 88 % of Denmark's area. The legend shows 82 different soil types. The map is used for research, in relation to environmental analysis and planning of construction works, and as a basis for soil quality maps. The map is published in GEUS report 2015/30, where further information can be found.

Soil-type map of Denmark 1:1 million. The map is an automatic generalization of Soilmap of Denmark 1:200.000 and a contribution to the worldwide OneGeology project. Please note that this map is fit for use as a large-scale illustration only, due to the automatic procedure used for generalization.

Soil-type map of Denmark 1:200.000 version 2. An interpreted overview map of surface geology in Denmark. The map shows a countrywide classification and distribution of soil types (mostly glacial and postglacial sediments) at the surface of Denmark. The soil types are divided into 12 different legend items. The map has a scale of 1:200.000, and is suited for educational use and as a background layer for other mapped themes. The map is published in GEUS report 2011/19.
