Description:

Abstract:

USGS-Open-File Report 99-317 is a collection of digital databases that are the result of the compilation and re-interpretation of published and unpublished 1:250,000- and 1:63,360-scale mapping. The map area covers approximately 62,000 sq km (23,000 sq mi) in land area and encompasses much of 13 1:250,000-scale quadrangles on the Alaska Peninsula in southwestern Alaska. This report shows the bedrock geology of the following 1:250,000 scale quadrangles: Naknek, Mt. Katmai, Ugashik, Chignik, Sutwik Island, Cold Bay, Port Moller, Stepovak Bay, False Pass, Simeonof Island, Bristol Bay; and parts of Afognak and Karluk.

Purpose:

This compilation was done as part of the U.S. Geological Survey's Alaska Mineral Resource Assessment project (AMRAP), whose goal was to create and assemble geologic, geochemical, geophysical, and other data in order to perform mineral resource assessments on a quadrangle, regional, or statewide basis. The digital data here was created to assist in the compilation of a regional mineral resource assessment of the Alaska Peninsula.

Data_Quality_Information:

Attribute_Accuracy:

Attribute_Accuracy_Report:

The linework was captured by hand digitizing from hand-drawn 1:63,360- and 1:250,000-scale mylar and paper maps that were in very good condition. Vector and polygon attributes were obtained from field maps and compilations. The digital data has been visually checked and the geologic map has undergone multiple technical reviews by J.R. Riehle, J.C. Moore, and C. Molenaar.

Logical_Consistency_Report:

The geology data sets (mkgeol, uggeol, cggeol, pmgeol, cbgeol, and krc45) are network coverages containing arcs and polygons. Each polygon has a coded attribute designating the mapped geologic unit. Faults and stratigraphic contacts are represented as arcs. When a fault is also a stratigraphic contact, only a single arc is present. Dangling arcs may be present (faults, dikes, etc.)
The fold axes data sets (mkfld-alb, ugfld-alb, cgfld-alb, pmfld-alb, and cbfod-alb) are arc coverages. Dangling arcs are present. Folds mapped showing plunge were digitized in the direction of the plunge.

Completeness_Report:

The complete digital OFR contains all files needed to create the map sheet titled "Geologic map of the Alaska Peninsula, southwest Alaska."

Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:

Users of this digital geologic map should respect the intentions of the original mappers and the limitations of the map. This geologic map compilation is intended to be used at a scale of 1:250,000; it is not intended to be used at a more detailed scale.

Lineage:

Process_Step:

Process_Description:

The data was acquired in a number of ways. the Chignik and Ugashik group of quadrangles were digitized from published 1:250,000 map sheets at the EROS Data Center in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. These were edited to reflect new data. The Port Moller, Cold Bay, and Mt. Katmai groups of quadrangles were digitized from 1:63,360 scale map sheets and all maps were edited to ensure consistency.

Entity_Type:

Entity_Type_Label: polygons
Entity_Type_Definition:

Characteristic of the polygon features are coded in the pat, polygon attribute table. The pat consists of the following items: CLASS, LABEL (geologic unit label), SYMBOL (shadeset color symbol), YAGE (minimum age in m.y.), OAGE (maximum age in m.y.), LITH1, LITH2.

Entity_Type_Definition_Source: USGS OFR 99-317

Attribute:

Attribute_Label: class
Attribute_Definition:

Class is a positive integer value (4 5 B) item in the polygon attribute table. Values range from 99-2999. A single lookup table for all the geology coverages contain the unit label and color symbol number or each unit. (See USGS OFR 99-317 for full descriptions of the geologic unit.
