Bedrock geological map of Ireland. Layers of Upper Carboniferous sedimentary rocks, Loop Head, County Clare. The geology of Ireland consists of the study of the rock formations on the island of Ireland. It includes rocks from every age from Proterozoic to Holocene and a large variety of different rock types is represented.
Geological Survey Ireland produces maps, reports and databases, and acts as a knowledge centre and project partner in a number of aspects of Irish geology. [ 3 ] The organisation managed the Irish National Seabed Survey (INSS, 1999–2005), which on completion was the world's largest civilian marine mapping programme.
OneGeology is an international collaborative project in the field of geology supported by 118 countries, UNESCO, and major global geoscience bodies.It is an International Year of Planet Earth flagship initiative that aims to enable online access to dynamic digital geological map of the world for everyone.
The geopark began as a mid-2000s project of Clare County Council and the local community, the "Environmental Protection of the Burren through Visitor Management Initiative", which was funded and supported by the council, Fáilte Ireland, Shannon Development, the National Parks and Wildlife Service and the Burrenbeo Trust.

Digital geologic mapping is the process by which geological features are observed, analyzed, and recorded in the field and displayed in real-time on a computer or personal digital assistant (PDA). The primary function of this emerging technology is to produce spatially referenced geologic maps that can be utilized and updated while conducting ...
Under the Ordnance Survey Ireland Act 2001, the Ordnance Survey of Ireland was dissolved and a new corporate body called Ordnance Survey Ireland was established in its place. [3] OSI was an autonomous corporate body, with a remit to cover its costs of operation from its sales of data and derived products, which sometimes raised concerns about ...
The geological fault zone resulting from the continental collision is known as the Iapetus Suture, named after the ocean it replaced. The closure of Iapetus involved a complex and protracted collisional history of numerous continental fragments , volcanic arcs and back-arc basins that were accreted to Laurentia and Avalonia between the Early ...
