Description:
Abstract:
This GIS layer contains a point overlay showing the location of samples
with Total Organic Carbon (TOC). This layer shows the distribution of samples
used in the creation of the TOC polygon layer, listoc.
Purpose:
The purpose of this data layer is to disseminate a digital version of the
map showing the locations of surficial total organic carbon sampling stations.

Technical_Prerequisites:
The tocpnt1 layer is available in an ArcView shapefile format. The user
must have ESRI's ArcView 3.0 or greater software to read and process the
data file. In lieu of Arcview, the user may utilize another GIS application
package capable of importing the data.
