Abstract
Pre-existing bedrock structures that reactivated following deglaciation through a combination of tectonic and isostatic stresses are well documented in northern Fennoscandia. Due to their possible implications for seismic hazards, there is a need to document the locations and geometries of these features. The recent availability of a high-resolution, LiDAR-derived, digital elevation model covering most of Sweden provides an ideal base upon which to map post-glacial fault scarps that appear to crosscut glacial sediments and landforms. The current mapping project has identified new post-glacial fault scarps in central Sweden, and both refined and rejected scarps previously mapped by aerial photographic interpretation in northern Sweden. No post-glacial fault scarps, however, were identified in southern Sweden. The current inventory of post-glacial fault scarps is available for download and will be updated as more data become available.
