Worldwide Directory of National Earth-Science Agencies 

By Wenonah E. Bergquist, Ralph L. Miller, Anne Lucas Folk, and Jane A. Tyskowski 

INTRODUCTION 

U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Circular 716, 

"Worldwide Directory of National EarthScience Agencies," published in 1975, proved to 

be popular and effective, providing ready reference to governmental earth-science agencies 

around the world that have functions similar to 

those of one or more of the operating divisions 

of the U.S. Geological Survey. Because the 

directory should be relatively current for maximum usefulness, the compilers have brought 

the directory up to date as of June 1977. 

In order to get the most current and inclusive 

information, persons who actually worked in a 

country and had personal knowledge of its 

earth-science agencies were contacted; many of 

these were officers attached to U.S. Embassies. 

Responses have been most gratifying. We are 

indebted to these officers and to their counterparts in foreign governments, as well as to all 

others who have assisted us with information. 

The new directory is arranged alphabetically 

by country ; the name of each country is followed by the list of appropriate agencies. The 

1 

location of each country is shown on an inde'X 

map, which is keyed to one of eight reference 

maps showing major regions of the world. 

These index maps should be helpful in locating 

countries that have changed names or that 

have recently attained independence. 

Wherever feasible, names of agencies in 

countries whose languages are based primarily 

on the Latin alphabet are given in the language 

of the country. English translations have been 

added in brackets where they seem necessary 

for easy understanding. Names of agencies in 

countries whose language utilizes an alphabet 

other than Latin are given in English. 

The principal functions of the USGS and of 

the agencies in the directory are indicated by 

the following code: 

G =Geology 

C = Cartography 

H = Hydrology 

R = Minerals and petroleum regulation 

The directory has been expanded by the 

addition of a list of major international organizations whose work is similar to that of agencies in the directory.
