International Association of Engineering Geology was constituted in 1967 and India also became it’s member. IAEG organises the international congress on engineering geology. Engineering geologists can become members of this association to enable active participation among the international geocommunity. Engineering Division, Geological Survey of India has been publishing and continues to publish technical reports of completed projects of our country. Civil engineers, engineering geologists, researchers, consultants and user agencies who require the data can have these publications through Director General, GSI, Publication Division, Kolkata.

Geological maps and their information content, standard geological studies and their major theme areas and existing information system for geology are listed in Tables 10.1 and 10.2 (adopted from Gupta, 1988).
