Abstract:
The ssfb_m1 digital map database, which is compiled from 1970's vintage sources, represents the general distribution and identity of geologic materials in the southern San Francisco Bay region, California, west of the Calaveras fault. It is not a geologic map, because it does not address the geologic structure or the stratigraphic organization of the map units in a systematic way. Instead, it is directed at the distribution and character of the geologic materials following the pattern of its progenitors, Wentworth and others (1985) and Ellen and Wentworth (in press). Consultation of these reports and the other compilation sources will aid in using the database.
Purpose:
The purpose of this digital map database is to provide a map of the distribution and character of the geologic materials following the pattern of its progenitors, Wentworth and others (1985) and Ellen and Wentworth (in press at the time of the release).

Native_Data_Set_Environment: ARC/INFO version 6.x
Data_Set_Credit:
Compilation of the digital database depended on advice and assistance in the use of ALACARTE-ARC/INFO from T.T. Fitzgibbon and access to ARC/INFO made possible by the Menlo Park GIS Research Laboratory of the U.S. Geological Survey. E.J. Helley provided author linework of the surficial map for scanning. D.L. Knifong assigned UNIT values to the polygons for the Santa Cruz geologic map. D.S. Aitken of the GIS lab provided access to a digital version of the color boundaries for the geologic map of Santa Cruz County and scanned and vectorized the fault plates for that map and the hillside materials map and the several layers of the topographic base map. N.L. Hoskin provided access to working files of the color boundaries and polygon tags for the hillside materials map. S.D. Ellen and E.E. Brabb shared their geologic expertise about the region.
Data_Quality_Information:
Logical_Consistency_Report:
The database delineates map units that are identified by general age and lithology and by the map labels used in the compilation sources. Stratigraphic names are included for those units named in the sources as a further means of characterization.
Completeness_Report:
Faults are distinguished in the database only as part of the physical character of the geologic materials and the database cannot be used to identify or delineate active faults in the region. Similarly, the database cannot be used to identify or delineate most landslides in the region.

Process_Step:
Process_Description:
The digital map was compiled on a 1:125,000 topographic base* (scanned and vectorized version of sheet 3, U.S. Geological Survey, 1970) from three regional compilations of 1970's data. Two of the sources were compiled in the 1970's on the 1:125,000 base and address the surficial deposits (flatland deposits, Helley and others, 1979) and the bedrock (hillside materials, Ellen and Wentworth, in press) of the 9-county San Francisco Bay region. (The San Mateo County part of the hillside materials map is based, in turn, on Wentworth and others, 1985.) The geologic map of Santa Cruz County (Brabb, 1989), also based largely on 1970's and older data, was compiled on the same base enlarged to a scale of 1:62,500. Inked or scribed linework for these sources was scanned (400 or more lines per inch), converted from raster to vector format, imported into ARC/INFO (version 4), and hand edited and combined into a single coherent map. The original material used to digitize the surficial linework was author manuscript (ink on mylar) and for the hillside materials and Santa Cruz County geologic maps was print publication files that had previously been prepared for color separation by scribing and scanning, together with scribed fault plates that were separately scanned and vectorized. The faults and color boundaries were combined interactively by hand for each source separately using ALACARTE (the color boundaries were tagged as contacts or replaced by faults, as appropriate). The fault plate for Santa Cruz County required a slight xy shift and rotation in the computer to produce a reasonable fit with the color boundaries.
