The atlas was begun as an effort to depict the areal distribution of surficial geologic deposits and other materials that accumulated or formed during the past 2+ million years, the period that includes all activities of the human species. These materials are at the surface of the Earth. They make up the "ground" on which we walk, the "dirt" in which we dig foundations, and the "soil" in which we grow crops. Most of our human activity is related in one way or another to these surface materials that are referred to collectively by many geologists as regolith, the mantle of fragmental and generally unconsolidated material that overlies the bedrock foundation of the continent. The maps were compiled at 1:1,000,000 scale. Purpose: In recent years, surficial deposits and materials have become the focus of much interest by scientists, environmentalists, governmental agencies, and the general public. They are the foundations of ecosystems, the materials that support plant growth and animal habitat, and the materials through which travels much of the water required for our agriculture, our industry, and our general well being. They also are materials that easily can become contaminated by pesticides, fertilizers, and toxic wastes. In this context, the value of the surficial geologic map is evident. NOTE: This map is the product of collaboration of State geological surveys, universities, and the U.S. Geological Survey, and is designed for both scientific and practical purposes. It was prepared in two stages. First, separate maps and map explanations of the parts of States included in the quadrangle were prepared by the State compilers. Second, these maps were combined, integrated, locally supplemented, and related to a uniform map symbol classification by the editors. The map unit descriptions also were combined, supplemented, and coordinated with those of other maps of this series so that individual unit descriptions are applicable throughout both this map and all other maps of the series. The footnote on saprolite was prepared by E. T. Cleaves, Maryland Geological Survey, and R. B. Daniels, North Carolina State University. Diagrams accompanying the map were prepared by the editors. Differences in mapping or interpretation in different areas were resolved by correspondence to the extent possible. Most simply reflect differences in available information or differences in philosophies of mapping. Such differences serve to encourage further investigation. Less than forty percent of the surficial deposits of the United States have been mapped and described. Traditionally, mapping of surficial deposits has been focused on glacial, alluvial, eolian, lacustrine, marine, and landslide deposits. Slope and upland deposits have been mapped in detail only in restricted areas. However, an enormous amount of engineering construction and many important problems of land use and land management are associated with regions that have extensive slope and upland deposits (colluvium, residuum, and saprolite, for example). These materials have many different physical characteristics. Therefore, an effort has been made to classify, map, and describe these deposits, based in large part on unpublished interpretations of individuals, published and unpublished subsoil data, and the distribution of bedrock parent materials. The classification is crude, but represents a first step toward a more refined and useful product. For scientific purposes, the map differentiates Quaternary surficial deposits on the basis of a combination of criteria, such as lithology, texture, genesis, stratigraphic relationships, and age, as shown on the correlation diagram and indicated in the map unit descriptions. Geomorphic features, such as stream terraces, are not distinguished, as map units, and differentiation of sequences of alluvial deposits of different ages is rarely possible at a scale of 1:1,000,000. Most landslide deposits also are too small to be shown at this scale. For practical purposes, the map is a surficial materials map, on which materials are distinguished on the basis of texture, composition, and local specific characteristics, such as swelling clay. It is not a map of soils as soils are recognized and classified in pedology or agronomy. Rather it is a generalized map of soils as recognized in engineering geology, or of subsoils or parent materials from which pedologic or agronomic soils are formed. As a materials map it serves as a base from which a wide variety of derivative maps for use in planning engineering, land use, or land management projects can be compiled. Supplemental_Information: This database represents an attempt to digitally capture all the geologic information available on the published paper map. Separate coverages are provided for the map unit polygons and line coverages for the hydrology and topography. The description of map units and sources of information are both included as a PDF file. The published maps of the Quaternary Geologic Atlas of the United States used three separate projections. To promote uniformity, the projection of this database was changed from Lambert Conformal Conic to Albers Equal Area and all subsequent digital databases will similarly be changed to Albers Equal Area Projection. Illustrations are provided showing an index to the International Map of the World 1:1,000,000; areas of responsibility for the compilation of the map; distribution and thickness of loess in the map area; and showing the correlation of map units. Any use of trade, product, or firm names is for descriptive purposes only and does not imply endorsement by the U.S. Government. Although this Federal Geographic Data Committee-compliant metadata file is intended to document the data set in nonproprietary form, as well as in ArcInfo format, this metadata file includes some ArcInfo-specific terminology. >The dataset for the Lookout Mountain quadrangle consists of 10 coverages. > geo_net > hydr_lin > topo_lin > bnd_lin > bnd_poly > rd_lin > rr_lin > grid_lin > The dataset also includes an ArcInfo AML, lineset, and shadeset that will produce the Illustrator or ArcInfo meta file of the geology and list of map units.

Browse_Graphic_File_Type: PDF Data_Set_Credit: The Quaternary Geologic Map of the Lookout Mountain 4° x 6° Quadrangle, United States, I-1420 (NI-16) was compiled by: Charles W. Copeland, Jr., Katherine F. Rheams,and Thornton LeNeathery, Geological Survey of Alabama; Robert A. Miller, and Stuart W. Maher, Tennessee Division of Geology; Michael S. Friddell and Amy K. Van Nostrand, Georgia Geological Survey; William A. Gilliland, Mississippi Geological Survey; Walter H. Wheeler, Department of Geology, University of North Carolina; Drew F. Holbrook and William V. Bush, Arkansas Geological Commission. The compilation of geology was converted to digital form by Techni Graphic Systems, Inc., of Fort Collins, CO, under contract with the U.S. Geological Survey and modified by Charles A. Bush. The topographic and hydrographic coverages, illustrations, word-processor files, and National Atlas coverages were prepared by Bush. Native_Data_Set_Environment: Windows_XP, 4.0, Intel ArcInfo version 9.2 Data_Quality_Information: Attribute_Accuracy: Attribute_Accuracy_Report: Compilation of geologic data: The accuracy of the map data is dependent on (1) the accuracy of the original source data, (2) the accuracy of transfer of that data to larger scale bases by the compilers, (3) the procedures by which the compilers and the editor/integrator simplified or generalized the data, and (4) the procedures used by, and the objectivity exercised by, the editor/integrator in integration of adjacent parts of the map that were prepared by different compilers. Consequently, aspects of accuracy for the data set cannot be quantified. Digitization and attributing of compilation: Digitizing contractor scanned source stable-base green-line material and published paper map, vectorized scan, attributed files, and produced check plots and coverages. Since stable-base separates of the map layers were not available, the map unit contacts were taken from the green-line base map. Hydrography and topography were taken from the published paper map. C.A. Bush rectified differences between the geology and the hydrology, proofread check plots, added additional attribution, and reviewed digital files; made final corrections as needed; produced graphical files and imported them into graphics program to prepare plot file; proofread cartographic product; prepared illustrations and word-processing files of descriptions of map units and sources of information. One unit (slc SILTY TO CLAYEY SAPROLITE) appeared on the green-line, but was not on the original paper map. Since it appeared on the adjacent Savannah Quadrangle, it was included in the database. The original paper map was scanned and recreated as PDF files. (The original map was thoroughly reviewed for conformity with U.S. Geological Survey editorial standards and stratigraphic nomenclature.) Logical_Consistency_Report: Polygon and chain-node topology are present. The ArcInfo commands BUILD and CLEAN were run to ensure the topological consistency of the data set. All polygons are labeled and were tested by using the ArcInfo command LABELERRORS. All polygons were checked for closure and intersections. Completeness_Report: These coverages contain polygons for all the map units, and lines for all the contacts and shorelines. All geologic data from the original map are expressed on this map. Any differences between elements on the original map and attributed polygons or arcs in this database are inadvertent and should not be construed as deliberate alterations of the data except the addition of unit "slc." Positional_Accuracy: Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy: Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report: The accuracy of location of polygons, lines, and points is consistent with the map scale of 1:1,000,000. The digital file was prepared at 1:1,000,000 nominal viewing scale. If the map is enlarged to larger scales (for example, 1:250,000, 1:100,000, or 1:24,000 scale), resolution of the map data is greatly diminished. Enlargement will not restore resolution that was lost by simplification or generalization of data. Lineage: Source_Information: Source_Citation: Citation_Information: Originator: Gerald M.

Due to significant differences between the greenline and the paper map, water boundaries were resolved using the paper map. Coverage of geology was checked and corrected or changed. Additional items were included in the attributes. AML's were created to plot the data. Plots were imported into graphics program to create a plotfile of the digital map. Process_Date: 2008 Process_Step: Process_Description: Bush acquired National Atlas of the United States 1:2,000,000 digital data for roads, railroads, and county boundaries in the United States. Data were clipped to cover only the area of the map. Since the files are intended only for the user's reference, and to reduce file size, all attributes were removed from the railroad coverage. All attributes were removed from the roads coverage except U.S. and State highway designations. A coverage was created containing map boundaries, and State and county boundaries. These coverages do not exactly match the base used in preparation of the original Quaternary Atlas map, but are included for the user's convenience. Process_Date: 2008 Process_Step: Process_Description: C.A. Bush created illustration of the index map on the paper map in a drawing program and changed it to reflect the status of conversion of Quaternary Geologic Atlas quadrangles to digital databases.
