Description:

Abstract:

This digital geologic map database represents the distribution and character of Cenozoic geologic strata in six 15' quadrangles covering most of the Tillamook Highlands in the northwest Oregon Coast Range. The geologic map was published as Open-File Report 94-21, the Geologic Map of the Tillamook Highlands, Northwest Oregon Coast Range, by Wells and others.

Purpose:

Together with the accompanying text file (tilgeo.ps or tilgeo.txt), it provides the most recent synthesis of the stratigraphy and structural geology of the northern Coast Range uplift.

Data_Set_Credit:

Paleontologic age assignments of molluscan fauna have been given by Ellen James Moore, foraminifera by Weldon W. Rau, and coccoliths by David Bukry. Mike Gallagher and Cheryl Hummon provided able assistance in the field. We appreciate the comments of Angela Jayko on an earlier version of the map. Tracey Felger and Johanna Fenton compiled and edited the entire map in ARCINFO. We thank Allison Asbjornsen, Leo and Shannon Brosseau, Jim and Mary Winter and the residents of Tillamook, Netarts, and Oceanside for sharing their local knowledge and hospitality.

Native_Data_Set_Environment: ARC/INFO version 6.1.1

Data_Quality_Information:

Logical_Consistency_Report:

The database is largely compiled from new mapping at 1:48,000 and 1:24,000 scales by the authors, in combination with published and unpublished previous work.

Process_Step:

Process_Description:

The geologic map information from twenty four 1:24,000 scale field maps was reduced and compiled at 1:48,000 scale on six stable originals created from the 7.5' bases. The geology was digitized from the six 1:48,000 map sheets, each of which represent a quadrangle (Tillamook, Nehalem, Enright, Timber, Fairdale, and Blaine) in the discontinued 15' map series. The author manuscripts (ink on mylar) were scanned using a Tektronix 4991 monochrome scanner with a resolution of 304.8 dots per inch. The scanned images were vectorized and transformed from scanner coordinates to projection coordinates using digital tics at quadrangle corners. The scanned lines were edited interactively using ALACARTE, unit boundaries were tagged as a contact or fault as appropriate, and scanning artifacts visible at 1:24,000 were removed.
Base Map layers were prepared from scale-stable printing negatives at 1:48,000 scale, of the U.S. Geological Survey Tillamook (1955 edition), Nehalem (1955 edition), Enright (1955 edition), Timber (1955 edition), Fairdale (1955 edition), and Blaine (1955 edition) 15' topographic maps. This old base was used because there were no funds for digitizing the 24 7.5' bases and because a base derived from 7.5' quadrangles was unsuitable for plotting images of the entire map area. Scanned and vectorized images were transformed from scanner coordinates to projection coordinates using digital tics at map corners. Scanning artifacts are common in the base map coverages, and they were not removed.
