Quaternary profile type map sheet 17 Mol

This map gives an overview of the Quartarian profile types found on the map sheet. The map shows the sequence of most recent deposits. These deposits are eolic, fluviatiel, tidal deposits or slope deposits. The surfaces of the quarta map represent the areas where similar successions of specific quaternary layers (profile types) occur. The thickness of the various component layers of a profile type must, in particular, provide guidance on the additional isohypsen and isopacher cards and additional texts. The quarernary deposits in Flanders are lateral and vertical heterogeneous and vary widely in thickness.
