Geological Survey Ireland Programmes & Projects How and Where We Work

How and Where We Work

​​We use different types of equipment to fulfil our mapping duties, whether on land, offshore or from the air.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ Technology complements our traditional mapping techniques. It supports us in drawing an ever more accurate picture of Ireland’s seabed and help us to better understand the ground beneath our feet.
