Salt structures in Northern Germany

The application “Information System Salt Structures” provides information about the areal distribution of salt structures (stocks and pillows) in Northern Germany. With general structural describing information, such as depth, secondary thickness, types of use or state of exploration, queries can be conducted. Contours of the salt structures can be displayed at horizontal cross-sections at four different depths up to a maximum depth of 2000 m below NN. A data sheet with information and further reading is provided for every single salt structure. Taking into account the fact that this work was undertaken at a scale for providing an overview and not for investigation of single structures, the scale of display is limited to a minimum of 1:300.000. This web application is the product of a BMWi-funded research project “InSpEE” running from the year 2012 to 2015. The acronym stands for Information system salt structures: planning basis, selection criteria and estimation of the potential for the construction of salt caverns for the storage of renewable energies (hydrogen and compressed air)”.“盐构造信息系统（Information System Salt Structures）”应用程序，提供德国北部盐构造（salt structures）的空间分布信息，该类构造包括盐丘（stocks）与盐枕（pillows）。该应用集成埋藏深度、次生厚度、利用类型及勘探状态等通用构造描述信息，支持用户发起查询检索。用户可在以德国法定高程基准面（NN）为基准的最大2000米深度范围内，选取四个不同深度的水平截面，展示盐构造的等值线。针对每一处盐构造，均提供包含详细信息与延伸阅读资料的数据手册。鉴于本数据集以宏观概览为编制初衷，而非针对单一盐构造开展专项勘测，其展示比例尺不得低于1:300000。本Web应用程序是由德国联邦经济事务与气候保护部（BMWi）资助的研究项目"InSpEE"的成果，该项目实施周期为2012年至2015年。该缩写的全称为“盐构造信息系统：可再生能源储库盐穴建设的规划依据、遴选标准与潜力评估”。
