BRITICE Glacial landforms (small scale)

This mapping GIS app displays landforms left behind by the ice sheet that covered most of Britain and Ireland during the last ice age (27,000 years ago). It contains over 170,000 landforms that have been collated from various reports published over the last 150 years. The aim of the BRITICE project is to bring together published information regarding the geomorphology (landforms) of the last British-Irish ice sheet. About: This layer comes from Britice version two, which is updated since 2004. The imprint of the last ice sheet on Britain and Ireland has been studied for over 100 years. During this time, scientists conducting fieldwork and mapping from satellite data and aerial photography produced geomorphological (landform) maps, documenting the distribution of landforms left behind by the ice sheet. We reviewed over 1,800 publications from the academic literature, British Geological Survey and Irish Geological Survey mapping.
