Borehole Geology Database.
The Borehole Geology database holds downhole lithological / lithostratigraphical data (with unit-bound lithological properties where appropriate) for boreholes identified within the Single Onshore Borehole Index (SOBI), which covers onshore and nearshore Great Britain. The database can store multiple interpretations for each borehole and properties assigned to each coded lithological unit. Available borehole geology properties include porosity, Munsell colour, grainsize, water struck, etc, and other valid property-types can be included when/if required.

The digital dataset has gone through several phases of development and is the result of the amalgamation of several databases in 1998. The Date of Creation given is the first date recorded in the database and is the date a pre-existing database was created. Data content varies from record to record. As borehole drilling is an ongoing activity, the database contains only a subset of all potential data. Logically consistent, according to allowable differences of coding detail.
