Websites, apps and databases

ADES is the national groundwater data access portal for metropolitan France and overseas departments. It gathers quantitative and qualitative data on groundwater on a public website.

AQUAREF is a national reference laboratory for monitoring aquatic environments. Its aim is to strengthen French expertise in the field of aquatic environment monitoring by networking the skills and research capacities of the five public institutions directly concerned: BRGM, IFREMER, INERIS, Irstea, LNE.

AUREOLE is an ERA-MIN2 research project coordinated by the French geological survey (BRGM) and funded by the National Research Agency (France), the National Research Agency (Spain) and the Foundation for Science and Technology (Portugal).

BDLISA, the French national hydrogeological database, is a tool for locating reference data on groundwater across France. It was set up to provide maps of hydrogeological units for users in mainland and overseas France.

The BDSolU database contains analyses of soils sampled in urban areas and the information used to describe their sampling. Its purpose is to better understand urban soils in urban agglomerations.

The digital version of BRGM's activity report looks back at the highlights and major results of the year. An enriched digital version, for greater reading comfort.

From the creation of BRGM in 1959 to the current challenges of responding to new geoscientific issues, this site traces the history of the French Geological Survey.

BRGM's Geothermal platform aims to optimise the energy and environmental performance of geothermal exchangers. It can be used to test any type of closed-loop surface exchanger.

Carmen (CARtography of the Ministry of the Environment) allows the diffusion and access to environmental information. This application is dedicated to data producers who want to share their data on the Internet. CARMEN is based on technical principles promoting the exchange and reuse of data between different information sources (interoperability protocols, cataloguing...).

CFG is an engineering and services company, specialised in geothermal energy applied to the production of heat and electricity in France and abroad. CFG, a 100% BRGM subsidiary, also provides services and manufactures and sells products in the fields of corrosion, industrial microbiology and leak detection on underground networks.

The CO2-DISSOLVED project proposes to evaluate the feasibility of a new CO2 capture strategy in deep saline aquifers, combining dissolved CO2 injection and geothermal heat recovery from the extracted brine.

EauFrance is a public information service on water and aquatic environments. Its aim is to facilitate access to public information in the field of water in France.
