Eskers
Notes
Dataset contains a complete coverage for all mapped and digitised deglacial esker features for the island of Ireland. Map forms part of the Geological Survey Ireland, (GSI), Quaternary Map series. Data recorded on the maps includes the locations of eskers. An Esker is a long, winding ridge of stratified sand and gravel, examples of which occur in glaciated and formerly glaciated regions of Europe and North America. Eskers are frequently several kilometres long and, because of their peculiar uniform shape, are somewhat like railway embankments.
