Abstract
The main aim of publication is to compare the information systems of the institutes of Czech Geological Survey and German Federal Institute for Geosciences and Natural Resources from a point of view of information which is needed for civil engineering purposes. The information systems are a base of the modern society. Thanks to them we are able to apply older exploratory works in order to evaluate currently solved projects. An information system becomes a strategic tool to evaluate exploratory works but also for land-use planning. The Czech Geological Survey information systems consists of the database of Borehole Explorations, the Final Reports Archives and the Inventory of Landslides. These three databases are fundamental for civil engineering purposes. The German Federal Institute for Geosciences and Natural Resources information system contains similar databases. It deals with the database of boreholes and the archives of scientific reports and publications. An Inventory of landslides is not available in the German Geological Survey information system even if these questions are discussed within Geohazards. As for the basic map documents which are available online, both the institutes include a geological map, a map of soils, a geophysical map and a map of underground waters or a hydrogeological map and a map of sources or raw materials information system. On the top of that, there is an engineering geological map available in Germany.
