The map was originally compiled on 1:400,000-scale quarters of the early 1980's version of the Oregon base map for publication at 1:500,000. These data were digitized by USGS NMD Thematic Map Unit and then reprojected to the new (late 1980's) Oregon 1:500,000-scale state base map.

Process_Description:
The map was originally compiled on 1:400,000-scale quarters of the early 1980's version of the Oregon base map for publication at 1:500,000. These data were digitized by USGS NMD Thematic Map Unit and then reprojected to the new (late 1980's) Oregon 1:500,000-scale state base map. This digital work was done primarily in the Scitex sytem. Conversion of scitex products for publication to ARC/INFO format was done to create this coverage. The major task in this conversion was translation of the Scitex color parameters to the map unit names used in ARC/INFO.
