Description:

Abstract:

This digital map database is prepared from a previously published map by Dibblee (1973). The geologic map database delineates map units that are identified by general age, lithology, and clast size following the stratigraphic nomenclature of the U.S. Geological Survey.

Purpose:

This Open-File Report is a digital geologic map database. The report serves to introduce and describe the digital data. There is no paper map included in the Open-File Report. The report includes PostScript and PDF plot files that can be used to plot images of the geologic map sheet and explanation sheet.

Process_Step:

Process_Description:

DIGTAL COMPILATION: The geologic map information was digitized from a paper copy of the original publication (Dibblee, 1973) at 1:125,000 scale. The map was traced on mylar using a drafting pencil. The mylar was scanned using a monochrome scanner with a resolution of 800 dots per inch. The scanned image was vectorized and transformed from scanner coordinates to State Plane projection coordinates with digital tics placed by hand at latitude/longitude intersections. Transformation into real world coordinates was accomplished by cutting the vectorized scan into 15' quadrangles. The 15' quadrangles were registered, and then reassembled once they had been projected. The scanned lines were edited interactively by hand using graphical user interface ALACARTE (Fitzgibbon, 1991, Fitzgibbon and Wentworth, 1991, Wentworth and Fitzgibbon, 1991). Scanning artifacts significant for display at a scale of 1:125,000 were corrected.
BASE MAP The 1:125,000-scale topographic base map for the original 1973 published geologic map was specially prepared by mosaicking photographic reproductions of the index contours and selected cultural features of 7-1/2 minute topographic quadrangles (E. E. Brabb, oral communication, 1998). The result was a map that approximated a state-plane projection, especially for 15-minute blocks. A scale-stable clear film of the base was scanned using a monochrome scanner with a resolution of 400 dots per inch. The raster scan was converted to a GRID in ARC/INFO. The GRID was then vectorized and reprojected into State Plane Projection using the latitude/longitude intersections as reference points. Arcs in the digital base layer (czo-topo) are not attributed. The base map is provided for reference and plotting purposes.
