BGS Linked Open Data

Geochronology

Several geological time scales exist, reflecting the use of differing datasets and methods of interpretation.

The BGS Geochronology Dataset is based on The Geologic Time Scale 2012 by F M Gradstein, J G Ogg, M Schmitz and G Ogg (2012), with additions.

The result is a composite geological time scale that will be updated as improved timescales become available.
