- Additional information
- The geology was fitted to a relevant topographic base at the time of production. The associated superficial data was not created at the same time and care should be taken using the two sets of data together as variation in topography at time of production may result in a mismatch between the two sets of data.

- Statement
- A new 1:625 000 scale (5th edition) printed geological map of the United Kingdom, published in 2007, was prepared digitally and these data were then used to create the replacement DiGMapGB-625 Bedrock Version 5. The 1:625 000 Bedrock data were created from two main sources. The geology for England & Wales, Scotland and the Isle of Man is generalised directly from the 1:50 000 scale DiGMapGB-50 V3 data released in 2006 with ongoing revisions through to 2007 incorporating selective interpretations from new 50k maps, anticipating their release as V5 tiles in 2008. The data for Northern Ireland were derived by minor simplification from the 1:250 000 scale geological map of Northern Ireland, published in 2007. Holes in the 50k data were filled using information from other sources.
