The Geological Survey of Slovenia (GeoZS) is a public research institute whose multidisciplinary activities in various fields of geoscience include:
• fundamental scientific research,
• applied research, explorations, and studies,
• international cooperation,
• provision of public services,
• transfer of the knowledge into practice to support national and local authorities’ decisions and economy.
The main task of GeoZS is to improve the understanding of the geological structure of the Slovenian territory. This knowledge and expertise are crucial for addressing national challenges in the areas of environmental and health protection, drinking water supply, natural disasters protection, land management, exploration and evaluation of reserves and sustainable management of mineral resources, energy supply and energy efficiency. GeoZS acquires, manages, stores and interprets geological data and makes it publicly available. Our goal is to provide knowledge widely available to society and industry, to put research into practise, to popularise science and scientific culture, and to inform the general public.
