This contribution reports on the cross section measurements performed at GSI on the isotopic distribution of the residual nuclides of spallation reactions in inverse kinematics. The fragment separator (FRS) was used to select and identify the reaction products, and the full (Z,N) map was measured above the production limit of 0.1 mb. The high resolution of the spectrometer allowed to determine the velocity distributions of all products. These data are relevant for the design of accelerator-driven subcritical reactors. They are also of the highest importance to improve the understanding of the spallation mechanism.
