    Geological maps by sheet area showing the geology at 1: 125 000 scale. The mappping has been carried out in a series of phases, initiated in 1949 by the then Ministry of Commerce and Industry Mines and Geological Department, a second phase of mapping was undertaken in the 1960's to early 1970's under the guidance of the Ministry of Natural Resources Mines and Geological Department with final maps being produced by the Ministry of Environment and Natural resources Mines and geological department in the late 1980's.

    Series of 1: 100 000 scale topographic maps pubished between 1958 and 1978. Data was collated and published by War office and Air Ministry (United Kingdom) subsequently Ministry of Defence (United Kingdom)[GSGS]; Survey Kenya [SK]; Directorate of Overseas Surveys for the Kenya Government [D.O.S.] . Maps are projected using the East African Grids (Transverse Mercator(Clarke 1880); Arc (1960) (Clarke 1880). A small number of the maps are shown as using Arc (1950) (Clarke 1880) however, this dataum is usually used for map in Botswana, Malawi, Zambia and Zimbabwe. The map references for the sheets indicated to be in Arc (1950) (Clarke 1880) have been flagged to indicate this. Publishers: G.S.G.S.

    Geological mapping (1984) was carried out as part of the Samburu Marsabit Geological Mapping and Mineral Exploration Prokect, a joint Kenyan - British Overseas Development Administration Technical Co-operation Project, staffed by the Kenyan Mines and Geological Department and the Brtish Geological Survey (formerly the Institute of Geological Science) of Natural Environment Research Council. Series of 1: 250 000 scale geological maps captured in two phases. The maps cover central (phase 1) and northern Kenya (phase 2). The maps align with the 1: 500 000 scale map for the Northern Turkana area.

    Geological map of Kenya with bouguer gravity contours overlaid. Data was compiled from observations listed in Swain and Khan, 1977, 'Kenya, a catalogue of gravity measurements' by Leicester University (same authors) using a density of 2.67, datum IGSN 1971 and 1967 gravity formula. Contours are in mgl (milli galileo - measure of gravity) as positive and negative values. West of 37 deg 30' Long. Contours by Beicip every 5mgl from station data recorded on tapes by Leicester University. Updated from Amoco data in Lotikipi Gatome area by Beicip-Franlab 2001. East of 37 deg 30' Long. Contours every 10mgl from Bouger map of Kenya, 1982 at 1: 1 000 000, Leicester University. Modified by Beicip with additional information in the Garissa-wajir area and offshore area.
