Logical_Consistency_Report:
The sources of geologic information for the compositionally classified lithology maps were the geologic maps of California (Jennings, 1977), Idaho (Bond and Wood, 1978), Montana (Ross, Andress and Witkind, 1955), Nevada (Stewart and Carlson, 1978), Oregon (Walker and MacLeod, 1991), Utah (Hintze, 1980), Washington (Hunting and others, 1961), and Wyoming (Love and Christiansen, 1985). The individual state geologic maps were combined to produce a composite geologic map of the Pacific Northwest with over 800 rock units, as described in Johnson and Raines (1995).

Process_Description:
The state geologic maps were processed digitally, as follows: the source material was scanned, the scanned image was vectorized and topologically structured, the lines and polygons were edited and proofed, attributes were added and proofed, the map was transformed from scanner units to geographic coordinates, and finally, map distortions were removed by rubber-sheeting.
