The map layer shows grain size composition in upper part of seabed sediments (upper ca 50 cm of the seabed). Grain size as a property describes the percentage of different grain size classes in a sediment or superficial deposit type. The maps are digitized with a view to presentation at a scale of 1:20 000 - 1:150 000 (detailed mapping).

This dataset contains the grain size composition of seabed sediments upper part. Grain size data are based on analyzes of seabed samples, analysis and interpretation of digital reflectivity data and interpretation of analog and digital seismic data. In the attribute table of the data set, information is given about the different grain size classes based on the content of different fractions in sediments.

The map layer shows grain size composition in upper part of seabed sediments (upper ca 50 cm of the seabed). Grain size as a property describes the percentage of different grain size classes in a sediment or superficial deposit type. The maps are digitized with a view to presentation at a scale of 1:1 000 000 (overview map).

This dataset contains the grain size composition of seabed sediments upper part (top 0-50 cm of the seabed). The attribute table for the data set provides information on the different grain size classes and which term is used, based on the content of different grain sizes in sediments. Based on information about grain size distribution, other topics can be further developed, such as sedimentation environment, bottom stream data, information on hard and soft bottoms, etc.

Grain size as a property describes the percentage of different grain size classes in a sediment or superficial deposit type. The maps are digitized with a view to presentation at a scale of 1:100 000 (regional map).

This data set contains the distribution of seabed sediments classified after genesis in mapped areas on the Norwegian shelf. The superficial deposit surface type describes the superficial deposits genesis. The data is based on the contents of the Quaternary map which are analogous (scale 1: 250,000 to 1: 500,000), or based on digital data from modern surveying.
