The highest level the sea reached after the last ice age. Data from Geodata AS. The marine border is an important reference point when assessing quick clay landslides: loose masses deposited below the marine border may contain sensitive marine clay. Combine it with Loose masses and Possibility of marine clay for a combined geotechnical background check. Datasets: Marine border. The marine border marks the highest level the sea reached after the last ice age. The information is central to the work of delimiting areas with marine clays in Norway. Issues linked to such deposits can be ruled out above the marine border, which is important in public planning work. Quick clay and landslides in marine deposits can only occur below the marine border.

Areas covered by mining rights for state-owned minerals, under the mineral act (mineralloven). Data from Norges geologiske undersøkelse (NGU). Important for development in mining regions: active mining rights can limit land use. Datasets: Mining rights.

Zones with potential danger of quick clay landslides, classified by risk and hazard level. Data from NVE / NGI. The layer distinguishes between mapped areas, risk classes and hazard level. Also available under Risk. The maps give an overview of zones with potential hazard (caution areas) of larger quick clay landslides. The zones have been identified and delimited by Quaternary geological mapping (to identify areas with marine clay), geotechnical assessment of topography and coarse geotechnical surveys. The zones cover release areas for quick clay landslides (areas that can slide out); in more recent mapping, runout areas may also be included. The identified quick clay zones are classified into three hazard classes (high, medium and low) based on topographical, geotechnical and hydrological criteria. The zones are further classified into three consequence classes (high, medium and low) depending on the consequences a landslide would have for buildings and infrastructure. The zones are then classified into five risk classes derived from hazard level and consequence. Area of use The dataset is primarily intended as a basis for assessing quick clay landslide hazard at municipal plan level. It is also intended as an information basis for municipalities, landowners, developers and others, with a view to avoiding terrain interventions and activities that can trigger landslides. The mapped zones only show areas with a potential hazard of larger landslides (terrain difference of 15 m or more). There may be landslide-prone quick clay zones outside the identified zones. In all areas with marine clay deposits, general caution must be shown regarding possible quick clay landslides.

Caution zones for quick clay landslides based on marine clay deposits and terrain criteria (height difference and slope). Data from Norges vassdrags- og energidirektorat (NVE). More detailed delimitation than the main layer Quick clay; also available under Risk. Shows areas that may be exposed to quick clay landslides, based on marine clay deposits and terrain criteria (slope and height difference). If the measure lies within the caution area, the procedure in NVE guideline 1/2019 must be followed and geotechnical expertise obtained. The map replaces the earlier "Aktsomhet marin leire" and now also captures terrain that can trigger landslides. The map is updated regularly and should be seen together with the hazard zone map for a full assessment.

Shows which areas in Norway are likely to be more exposed to radon than others, based on bedrock and loose masses. Data from Norges geologiske undersøkelse (NGU). Useful when buying and renting out housing: high susceptibility means a radon measurement is recommended before moving in. Datasets: Radon susceptibility. The national radon susceptibility map shows which areas in Norway are likely to be more exposed to radon than others. In areas marked as high susceptibility, at least 20% of homes are estimated to have radon concentrations above the recommended limit of 200 Bq/m³ on the ground floor. The dataset is based on indoor air measurements of radon (from the NRPA database) and knowledge of geological conditions (NGU's databases for bedrock and loose masses). In some areas, radon has been measured in many homes, while in others few measurements are available. The dataset was developed by assessing statistically how the share of homes with high radon concentrations relates to local geology, and by applying this knowledge to other areas with similar geological conditions. Area of use The national radon susceptibility map gives municipalities a basis for a first assessment of radon risk. In areas with high or particularly high susceptibility, the municipality should check whether radon needs follow-up under the Planning and Building Act and the Public Health Act and their regulations. The map cannot be used to predict the radon concentration in individual buildings. The only way to know for certain about radon in a building is to carry out a measurement.

Based on loose masses maps and the dataset for the marine border. Shows where marine clay may potentially be found, either at the surface or under other loose masses. Data from Norges geologiske undersøkelse (NGU). An important supplement to the Quick clay layer during geotechnical screening. Datasets: Possibility of marine clay. The "Mulighet for marin leire" (MML) dataset is based on loose mass maps and the marine limit (MG) dataset, and shows where marine clay may potentially be found, either at the surface or beneath other loose mass types.

The extent of the types of loose masses that cover the rock surface, classified by origin and type (moraine, sea and fjord deposits, river deposits and more). Data from Norges geologiske undersøkelse (NGU). The basis for understanding whether an area is dominated by stable moraine masses or sensitive marine clay. The loose mass data mainly shows the distribution of the loose mass types that cover the rock surface. Most of the loose masses were formed during and after the last ice age. The data only shows which soil type dominates in the top few metres of the terrain surface.

Drainage lines derived from hoydedata.no at 50 cm resolution, divided by upstream area (from 1-10 dekar to more than 1,000 dekar). Data from Geodata AS. Gives a picture of natural water flow across the terrain, useful when assessing surface water management and flood paths. Datasets: Drainage lines. The drainage lines are derived from hoydedata.no at a resolution of 50 cm. The lines cover about 99% of the country and are placed where water collects over an area larger than 1 daa (1,000 m²). Before the analysis, sinks in the terrain models were filled; buildings, culverts and drainage pipes have not been edited. The analyses were carried out by dividing the areas in the same way as NVE's Regine catchment areas, and the attributes from that dataset were then added to the lines.
