As with the 2010 version, it takes into account the state of knowledge on the geology of our planet at the turn of the 20th and 21st centuries.<\/p>\n<p>Colour changes of some major geological units have been made: Cenozoic volcanism; trapps; oceanic plateaus, hot spot tracks and seamounts. The representation of thrust fronts, whatever their nature (subduction zones, accretionary prisms, thrusts...) has been homogenised.<\/p>\n<p>Geological map of the world at 1:35 M-PDF<\/p>\n<p>The

1) the physiography of the globe is complete and detailed, including isobaths every 1000 m; 2) as it is centred on the Pacific, it gives an overall view of this ocean, which contains most of the planet's subduction zones and hot spots; 3) the representation of active volcanoes can be related to the subduction zones<\/p>\n<p>Geological map of the world at 1:35 M-PDF<\/p>\n<p>Some indications
