Data of Geological map were reclassified into classes of IAH classification on the base of hydrogeological characteristics. IAH classification is based on description of the hydrogeological units. Firstly, based on extensiveness and productivity and secondly on type of porosity. The purpose is to provide assistance to the strategy of groundwater exploitation as to protection and water resources management.

Po definiciji Vodne direktive je Vodno Telo Podzemne Vode (VTPodV), ali poenostavljeno "telo podzemne vode", razločna prostornina podzemne vode v vodonosniku ali več vodonosnikih. Določanje teles podzemne vode je bilo izvedeno po Pravilniku o metodologiji za določanje teles podzemnih voda sprejet v Uradnem listu RS pod št. 65/2003 in 63/2005. Karta vodnih teles podzemnih vod predstavlja 21 značilnih vodnih teles podzemnih voda na državnem nivoju v Sloveniji, ki pripada dvema vodnima območjema (Donava in Jadranske reke). Karta vključuje tudi 168 vodonosnih sistemov, ki gradijo vodno telo podzemne vode na državnem nivoju. Na obravnavanem območju so bile meje vodnih teles prilagojene na merilo 1:25.000.

Karte prostorske porazdelitve vrednosti spremenljivk vezanih na temperaturo zraka so narejene na osnovi meritev klimatoloških meteoroloških postaj, ki so v obravnavanem obdobju neprekinjeno delovale vsaj deset let. Za računanje vrednosti spremenljivk vezanih na temperaturo zraka v pravilni mreži z ločljivostjo 100 m x 100 m je bila uporabljena metoda optimalne prostorske interpolacije, ki upošteva povezanost obravnavane spremenljivke z nadmorsko višino in preko izbrane okolice upošteva tudi vpliv mikrolokacije. Zaradi majhne gostote mreže opazovanj, je vpliv mikrolokacije možno upoštevati le v manjši meri.

The underground geothermal conditions can be presented, irrespective of the aquifers' position, with the appropriate geothermal maps. This map represents the expected temperatures at a depth of 3000 m and is made with data from 214 boreholes. It is made on the basis of measured temperatures in accessible boreholes throughout the country. However, since the temperature field depends on the geological structure in the depths and tectonic characteristics, the course of the isotherms is a result of many influences, such as thermal conductivity of rocks, permeability and fracturing of rocks, all of which are reflected in the measured temperatures in boreholes. In this depth also a radiogenic heat production in the rocks has smaller influence. The distribution of boreholes, which were useful for the measurement of temperature, is very uneven and different as regard the depths. Following the expected temperatures at a depth of 3000 m a stronger positive anomaly is in the northeastern part of Slovenia, from the line Maribor-Rogatec to the east, while in the eastern part of the Krka basin there is no anomaly any more. In the northeastern part of the country the anomaly is the result of the thinning of the Earth's crust and greater conductive heat flow from the Earth's mantle. Elsewhere temperatures are much lower.

The underground geothermal conditions can be presented, irrespective of the aquifers' position, with the appropriate geothermal maps. This map represents the expected temperature lines at a depth of 3000 m and is derived from Geothermal map - Expected temperatures at a depth of 3000 m, which is made with data from 214 boreholes.

The underground geothermal conditions can be presented, irrespective of the aquifers' position, with the appropriate geothermal maps. This map represents the expected temperatures at a depth of 100 m and is made with data from 398 boreholes. It is made on the basis of measured temperatures in accessible boreholes throughout the country. However, since the temperature field depends on the geological structure in the depths and tectonic characteristics, the course of the isotherms is a result of many influences, such as thermal conductivity of rocks, permeability and fracturing of rocks, all of which are reflected in the measured temperatures in boreholes. The distribution of boreholes, which were useful for the measurement of temperature, is very uneven and different as regard the depths. Following the expected temperatures at a depth of 100 m a stronger positive anomaly is in the northeastern part of Slovenia, and in a smaller eastern part of the Krka basin. In the northeastern part of the country the anomaly is the result of the thinning of the Earth's crust and greater conductive heat flow from the Earth's mantle.

Geological Units are polygons, defined by equal composition (lithology) and age.

The underground geothermal conditions can be presented, irrespective of the aquifers' position, with the appropriate geothermal maps. This map represents the expected temperatures at a depth of 5000 m and is made with data from 192 boreholes. It is made on the basis of measured temperatures in accessible boreholes throughout the country. However, since the temperature field depends on the geological structure in the depths and tectonic characteristics, the course of the isotherms is a result of many influences, such as thermal conductivity of rocks, permeability and fracturing of rocks, all of which are reflected in the measured temperatures in boreholes. In this depth also a radiogenic heat production in the rocks has smaller influence, especially in magmatic and metamorphic rocks. The distribution of boreholes, which were useful for the measurement of temperature, is very uneven and different as regard the depths. Following the expected temperatures at a depth of 5000 m a stronger positive anomaly is in the northeastern part of Slovenia, from the line Maribor-Rogatec to the east. In the northeastern part of the country the anomaly is the result of the thinning of the Earth's crust and greater conductive heat flow from the Earth's mantle. Elsewhere temperatures are much lower, especially in the western mountainous parts they are lower than expected mean values for the continents.

Map represents the calculated (surface) heat-flow density (HFD) in mW/m2 with topographic correction. It is made with data from 119 boreholes from the measured temperatures in the available boreholes and measured thermal conductivity on cored rock samples from the same boreholes. The pattern of the HFD isolines is affected by numerous parameters, particularly the thermal conductivity of rocks, rock permeability and fracturing, fluid content of the rocks, and all are reflected in the measured temperature gradient in the boreholes.
