Geological Survey Organizations

Geological survey organizations are government or research agencies responsible for studying and mapping the Earth's subsurface, including rocks, minerals, and groundwater. They collect data to better understand natural resources, geological hazards, and land stability, supporting informed decision-making for sustainable development, disaster prevention, and resource management. These organizations often compile geological maps, conduct field investigations, and provide scientific expertise to government agencies, industry, and the public, helping ensure safe, efficient, and environmentally responsible use of Earth's geological resources.
