Description:
Abstract:
The surficial geology, wetlands, and deepwater habitats of the Coeur d' Alene River Valley, Idaho were mapped by Arthur A. Bookstrom and Stephen E. Box (1996-1998) onto 1:24,000 scale topographic base maps (stable-base greenline mylars) for input into an Arc/Info geographic information system (GIS).
Purpose:
The purpose of these GIS datasets is to show how the distribution of floodborne contaminated sediments is related to potential sources of clean and contaminated sediments, and to hydrologic features that determine patterns of erosion, transport, and deposition. Mapped geologic information indicates the configuration and distribution of surficial geomorphic features and sedimentary deposits that result from erosion, transport, and deposition of unconsolidated sediments. Mapped wetland features indicate the configuration and distribution of surficial hydrologic pathways that guide erosion, transport, and deposition. These GIS datasets are intended to aid in process- oriented interpretation of geochemical and biological data being collected as a basis for natural-resource damage assessment and restoration planning.
Supplemental_Information:
These GIS datasets were requested by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and were prepared in conjunction with the Coeur d' Alene Tribe as part of a National Resource Damage Assessment (NRDA) being developed by the U.S. Department of the Interior in conjunction with the Environmental Protection Agency and the Department of Justice.
Geologic features are mapped on the river-channel bottom, its marginal meander ridge, and highlands above the floodplain. Wetland features are mapped according to the Wetlands Classification System of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, which includes riverine, palustrine, and lacustrine systems. Modifiers denote predominant vegetation which indicates frequency and duration of inundation, water depth, organic content, and oxidation of sediments. For detailed descriptions of the geologic and wetland systems data model, please call Arthur Bookstrom (509) 368-3119.

Data_Set_Credit:
Arthur A. Bookstrom and Stephen E. Box mapped the surficial geology and wetland system units (1996-1998); Berne L. Jackson (Coeur d'Alene Tribe) scanned the original stable-base 1:24,000-scale maps and created and attributed the GIS with preliminary labels and linecodes. Theodore R. Brandt (contractor) created the master Arc/Info registration file and converted the preliminary GIS to Idaho state plane format. He also digitized in new linework, edited the digital files, and built lookup tables with detailed wetland system, geologic, lithologic, and metal contamination information; Pamela D. Derkey (USGS) provided technical assistance with the geologic-wetland systems data model, metadata, digital documentation, and map projections; Steven R. Munts (contractor) assisted with digital editing; Julie Campbell (USFW) reviewed marsh and lacustrine systems for correctness. She also reviewed vegetation classes and subclasses.

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. 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.
Completeness_Report:
Data is principally from geologic interpretation of color aerial photographs and LANDSAT TM images with field checking by A.A. Booksrom and S.E. Box. Some bedrock geologic information is from Griggs (1973). In general, the minimum mapping unit is approximately 50 square meters.

Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:
The horizontal positional accuracy for the digital data in no better than +/- 2 meters based on the digitizing RMS error.
