2D and 3D reflection seismic in Switzerland

This map shows the location of seismic reflection data acquired in Switzerland for the exploration of the geological subsurface. The majority of these are two-dimensional measurements (2D) along the profile traces shown. Three-dimensional measurements (3D) cover the areas within the shown perimeters. Seismic lines and surveys can be located by entering their name in the search field. Downloading is possible for many of the processed seismic datasets that are publicly available. For more detailed information on other seismic data (raw, non-public etc.), please contact the rights holder directly. This map is continuously updated and does not claim to be complete.
