Description:

Abstract:

The geology of the Thompson Falls 1:100,000 quadrangle, Idaho was compiled by Reed S. Lewis in 1997 onto a 1:100,000-scale topographic base map for input into an Arc/Info geographic information system (GIS). The digital geologic map database can be queried in many ways to produce a variety of derivative geologic maps.

Purpose:

This dataset was developed to provide geologic map GIS of the Idaho portion of the Thompson Falls 1:100,000 quadrangle for use in future spatial analysis by a variety of users.
This database is not meant to be used or displayed at any scale larger than 1:100,000 (e.g., 1:62,500 or 1:24,000).

Supplemental_Information:

This GIS consists of two major Arc/Info datasets: one line and polygon file (tf100k) containing geologic contacts and structures (lines) and geologic map rock units (polygons), and one point file (tfpnt) containing structural data.

Data_Set_Credit:

Reed S. Lewis (contractor) compiled the geology onto stable-base material; Optronics Specialty Co., Inc. scanned the geologic map and provided minimally attributed Arc/Info EXPORT-format files to the USGS; Pamela D. Derkey (USGS) imported the files, transformed them to UTM zone 11 (with a y-shift) and attached and attributed an interim geologic map data model; Thomas P. Frost (USGS) visually compared the hard copy plots with the source; Jon R. Oblad (EWU) annotated the point data for output at a scale of 1:100,000.

Native_Data_Set_Environment:

SunOS, 5.5.1, sun4u UNIX ARC/INFO version 7.1.1

Data_Quality_Information:

Attribute_Accuracy:

Attribute_Accuracy_Report:

Attribute accuracy was verified by manual comparison of the source with hard copy printouts and plots.

Logical_Consistency_Report:

Polygon and chain-node topology present. Polygons intersecting the neatline are closed along the border. Segments making up the outer and inner boundaries of a polygon tie end-to-end to completely enclose the area. Line segments are a set of sequentially numbered coordinate pairs. No duplicate features exist nor duplicate points in a data string. Intersecting lines are separated into individual line segments at the point of intersection. Point data are represented by two sets of coordinate pairs, each with the same coordinate values. All nodes are represented by a single coordinate pair which indicates the beginning or end of a line segment. The neatline was generated by mathematically generating the four sides of the quadrangle, densifying the lines of latitude and projecting the file to UTM zone 11 (with a y-shift).

Completeness_Report:

All geologic units were compiled from previously existing geologic maps ranging in scale from 1:24,000 to 1:250,000.

Positional_Accuracy:

Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:

Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:

The horizontal positional accuracy for the digital data is no better than +/- 7 meters based on the transformation RMS error. It was tested by visual comparison of the source with hard copy plots.

This secondary source provided additional information in compiling the geologic map.

Process_Step:

Process_Description:

Geologic map information from source maps were reduced to a scale of 1:100,000 using a copy machine, then manually compiled onto a stable-base copy of the USGS 1:100,000-scale topographic quadrangle map and manually labeled.

Process_Description:

Stable-base map was scanned and converted from a raster to a vector format (in scanner units).

Process_Description:

Digital files were transformed to UTM zone 11 (meters), with a RMS error (input,output) = (0.003, 7.350), and attributed using an interim geologic map data model. The data were checked for position by comparing plots of the digital data to the source.

Entity_and_Attribute_Overview:

The 'Digital geologic map of part of the Thompson Falls 1:100,000 quadrangle, Idaho' Open-File Report 99-438 contains a detailed description of each attribute code and a reference to the associated map symbols on the map source materials. The GIS includes a geologic linework arc attribute table, tf100k.aat, that relates to the tf100k.con (contact look-up table), tf100k.str (structure look-up table), and tf100k.ref (source reference look-up table) files; a rock unit polygon attribute table, tf100k.pat, that relates to the tf100k.ru (rock unit look-up table) and tf100k.ref (source reference look-up table) files; and a geologic map symbol point attribute table, tfpnt.pat, that relates to the tfpnt.sym (structural point data look-up tables) and tfpnt.ref (source reference look-up table) files.
