Description:
Abstract:
This digital map database, compiled from previously published and unpublished data, and new mapping by the authors, represents the general distribution of bedrock and surficial deposits in the mapped area. Together with the accompanying text file (nesfmf.ps, nesfmf.pdf, nesfmf.txt), 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 and lithology following the stratigraphic nomenclature of the U.S. Geological Survey. The scale of the source maps limits the spatial resolution (scale) of the database to 1:62,500 or smaller.
Purpose:
This database and accompanying plot files depict the distribution of geologic materials and structures at a regional (1:62,500) scale. The report is intended to provide geologic information for the regional study of materials properties, earthquake shaking, landslide potential, mineral hazards, seismic velocity, and earthquake faults. In addition, the report contains new information and interpretations about the regional geologic history and framework. However, the regional scale of this report does not provide sufficient detail for site development purposes. In addition, this map does not take the place of fault-rupture hazard zones designated by the California State Geologist (Hart and Bryant, 1999). Similarly, the database cannot be used to identify or delineate landslides in the region.
Supplemental_Information:
This report consists of a set of geologic map database files (Arc/ Info coverages) and supporting text and plotfiles. In addition, the report includes two sets of plotfiles (PostScript 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 (nesfmf.ps, nesfmf.pdf, or nesfmf.txt). The base map layer used in the preparation of the geologic map plotfiles was derived from scanned and vectorized versions of USGS 1:125,000 scale regional topographic maps (Aitken, 1997).

Access_Constraints: None
Use_Constraints:
Uses of this digital geologic map should not violate the spatial resolution of the data. Although the digital form of the data removes the constraint imposed by the scale of a paper map, the detail and accuracy inherent in map scale are also present in the digital data. The fact that this database was edited for a scale of 1:62,500 means that higher resolution information is not present in the dataset. Plotting at scales larger than 1:62,500 will not yield greater real detail, although it may reveal fine-scale irregularities below the intended resolution of the database. Similarly, where this database is used in combination with other data of higher resolution, the resolution of the combined output will be limited by the lower resolution of these data.

Data_Set_Credit:
We would like to acknowledge our many colleagues at the USGS, University of California, and Stanford University for their many contributions over the years. We are grateful to the following U.S. Geological Survey paleontologists who have examined our fossils and provided ages necessary to establish the stratigraphic sequence and structure: David Bukry (Cretaceous and Tertiary nannoplankton), Kristin McDougall (Tertiary foraminifers), William Sliter (Cretaceous and Eocene foraminifers), John Barron (Tertiary diatoms), Charles Powell, II (Tertiary mollusks), and Benita Murchey (Mesozoic radiolaria). We are also very grateful to managers and staff of Chevron, EXXON, UNOCAL, ARCO, and Shell Petroleum Companies who have provided reports, maps, picked slides, and residues for about 25,000 microfossil localities in the San Francisco Bay Region. Finally, we are indebted to Roland Tabor and Andrei Sarna-Wojcicki for their thorough reviews of the manuscript for this report, as well as Charles Powell, II, for his review of stratigraphic nomenclature and Scott Graham for his review of the digital database.

Attribute_Accuracy:
Attribute_Accuracy_Report:
This report has undergone two scientific peer reviews, one digital database review, one review for conformity with geologic names policy, and review of the plotfiles for conformity with USGS map standards.
Completeness_Report:
The report is intended to describe completely the surficial deposits and bedrock geology at 1:62,500 scale. Geologic information only mappable at larger scale has been omitted. In addition, landslide deposits are for the most part not recorded.
Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:
Well located data items are intended to have a horizontal positional accuracy within .5 mm at 1:62,500 scale, or within 31 meters on the ground. The general positional accuracy of each line in the database is indicated within the LTYPE field in the Arc Attribute Table (see below). Points in the database are generally considered to be well located. The position of each data item is derived from the USGS topographic base map, and therefore additional inaccuracies arising from inaccuracies in the base map may also be encountered.

Process_Step:
Process_Description:
Geologic linework was scanned, converted to vector data, and edited on-screen to repair errors visible at map scale. Polygon topology was created and each polygon tagged on-screen. Structural information was digitized by hand using a digitizing table. Plotfiles were created in ArcPlot.

Structural boundary between mapped units or structural discontinuity within a mapped unit that has experienced reverse offset between the rock bodies on either side of the fault. The fault is obscured by overlying mapped units, so it is not well-located as described in Positional_Accuracy, but the location is constrained to be within about 5 mm at map scale (1:62,500) or within about 312 meters on the ground.

Enumerated_Domain_Value: contact, approx. located
Enumerated_Domain_Value_Definition:
Boundary between two mapped units that retains the original depositional or intrusive relationship (i.e. not faulted). The contact has not been observed, so it is not well-located as described in Positional_Accuracy, but the location is constrained to be within about 2 mm at map scale (1:62,500) or within about 125 meters on the ground.
Attribute_Domain_Values:

Enumerated_Domain_Value_Definition:
Boundary between two mapped units that retains the original depositional or intrusive relationship (i.e. not faulted). The contact has not been observed, so it is not well-located as described in Positional_Accuracy, but the location is constrained to be within about 5 mm at map scale (1:62,500) or within about 312 meters on the ground. The existence of the fault is inferred from structural and stratigraphic relationships observed elsewhere.

Overview_Description:
Entity_and_Attribute_Overview:
The databases in this report were compiled in ARC/INFO, a commercial Geographic Information System (Environmental Systems Research Institute, Redlands, California). 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 are "coveragename"-ID, LTYPE, PTYPE, PTTYPE, FAULTNAME, STRIKE, and DIP. "coveragename"-ID is required by internal policy to be sequential. This ensures the highest compatibility of our databases with other GISs. Therefore "coveragename"-ID is calculated equal to "coveragename"#, which is a unique, sequential integer assigned by Arc/Info to each data record. LTYPE, PTYPE, and PTTYPE are author added items to the coverage AAT or PAT that are used to describe the type of line (LTYPE), area (PTYPE), or point (PTTYPE) being recorded. All coverages with AAT and PAT present include these items in the data structure. Each has WIDTH 35, OUTPUT 35, TYPE C. STRIKE and DIP are author added items to the coverage PAT that record information about the orientation of planar geologic structures. Both have WIDTH 3, OUTPUT 3, TYPE I. These items are only recorded in the table NESF-STRC.PAT. FAULTNAME is an author added item the coverage AAT that records information about the names of faults in the map area. It has WIDTH 35, OUTPUT 35, TYPE C. FAULTNAME is only recorded in the table NESF-FLT.AAT.
