The material of the Geological Archive is collected exclusively in digital form. Authors themselves can upload their reports and work into the archive. All compiled reports, conducted investigations and gathered underlying data by the geology experts and enterprises operating in the field are awaited to be submitted in the geological archive.

Developing the Estonian Geological Archive
During the project, the Geological Archive's information system and spatial data services were updated and the availability of open data of the Geological Archive improved.
The project was funded by the European Union from the NextGenerationEU Recovery and Resilience Facility with 61,300.96 euros.
