Geognostic surveys

Geognostic soundings (and the relative tests carried out on site and in the laboratory) make it possible to analyse the soil in depth in order to know its stratigraphy and assess its geological and geotechnical characteristics.
Since 1993, the Geological Service has been codifying and computerising data from geognostic surveys carried out on behalf of the Autonomous Province of Trento, both on its own behalf and by external companies, and those of private subjects (in the latter case, the data are not to be considered in the public domain, and therefore cannot be divulged).

Description

The database created contains, in addition to the lithological description of the strata, the most frequently collected data from investigations of this type:

- stratum level and type,

Esempio stratigrafia

As far as the compilation of the stratigraphic column is concerned, a considerable effort was made to codify the loose soils and rocks by introducing a necessary standardisation in the terminology to be adopted.
The coding system makes it possible to reduce the subjectivity of the description and effectively query the database for subsequent processing. For example, a terrain is described with a string consisting of a maximum of three nouns referred to by one or more descriptive adjectives.
