Geology scene
The geology scene works on geology-related tasks.

A large number of independent organizations collect, compile and distribute geologically relevant data and information. The organizations in the field of geology and in the related disciplines (geotechnics, geophysics, etc.) are a community referred to as the "Swiss geology scene". The Geology Portal is an important step in strengthening the Swiss geology scene, for a more efficient collaboration and an improved awareness of geology amongst the general public.
