Description:

Abstract:

This digital map database is compiled from unpublished data and new mapping by the authors, represents the general distribution of surficial and bedrock geology in the mapped area. Together with the accompanying pamphlet, it provides current information on the geologic structure and stratigraphy of the area. The database delineates map units that are identified by age and lithology following the stratigraphic nomenclature of the U.S. Geological Survey. The scale of the source maps limits the spatial resolution of the database to 1:24,000 or smaller.

Purpose:

The digital map database, compiled from previously published and unpublished data, and new mapping by the authors, represents the general distribution of bedrock and surficial deposits in the House Rock Spring area. Together with the accompanying text, it provides current information on the geologic structure and stratigraphy of the area covered. The database delineates map units that are identified by general age, lithology, and geomorphology following the spatial resolution (scale) of the database to 1:24,000. The content and character of the database, as well as three methods of obtaining the database, are described below.

Supplemental_Information:

This report consists of a set of geologic map database files (ARC/ INFO coverages) and supporting text and plot files. In addition, the report includes two sets of plot files(Post Script and PDF format) that will generate map sheets and pamphlets similar to a traditional USGS Miscellaneous Field Studies Report. These files are described in the explanatory pamphlets (hrsgeo.doc, hrsgeo. pdf, or hrsgeo.txt). The base layer used in the preparation of the geologic map plot files was derived from a Digital Raster Graphic version of a standard USGS 7.5' quadrangle. This raster image was converted to Grid format in ARC/INFO, trimmed and converted to a GeoTIFF image. The resultant TIFF image was combined with geologic data to produce the final map image in Illustrator 8.0.

Access_Constraints: None
Use_Constraints:

Uses of this digital geologic map should not violate the spatial resolution of the map area (1:24,000) even though the digital data form removes the constraint of scale on a paper map. The accuracy inherent in map scale are also present in digital format. At a scale larger than 1:24,000, higher resolution data is not available and will not yield greater real detail.

Lineage:

Process_Step:

Process_Description:

Stable-base maps of geologic features were scanned at the Flagstaff USGS Field site using the Optronics 5040 raster scanner at a resolution of 50 microns (508 dpi). The resulting raster file was in RLE format and converted to the RLC format using the "rle2rlc" program adapted by Marilyn Flynn. A tic file was created in lat/long and projected to UTM zone 12. Tics were defined in a 2.5 minute grid of latitude and longitude. The RLC file was converted to an ARC/INFO Grid in ARC/INFO and projected to UTM zone 12 using a first order polynomial transformation to the UTM tic marks. The base map image was prepared from a DRG obtained online from the ARIA image archive website. The raster image was registered using a world file and imported into ARC/INFO where it was then converted to a grid. Area colors where drained from the file, resulting in a three-color image in ARC/INFO. No elements of the base layer are attributed and the base map is provided solely for reference.

Overview_Description:

Entity_and_Attribute_Overview:

The databases described in this report were compiled in ARC/INFO, a commercial Geographic Information System by Environmental Systems Research Institute. Almost all the attributes in the various attribute tables of the coverages included in the report are set or calculated by ARC/INFO. The exceptions being <COVER>-ID, LINETYPE, UNIT, POINTTYPE, STRIKE, and DIP. LINETYPE, UNIT and POINTTYPE are author added aspects of the coverages added to the PAT or AAT and are used to describe the type of line(LINETYPE), area (UNIT), point or arcmarker (POINTTYPE). LINETYPE and POINTTYPE are each defined with WIDTH 35, OUTPUT 35, and TYPE C (character). UNIT is defined with WIDTH 5, OUTPUT 5, and TYPE C. STRIKE and DIP are only present in HRSPOINT.PAT, because they describe bedding orientation of point objects. Each is defined with WIDTH and OUTPUT of 3,and TYPE I (integer).
