Created using Environmental Systems Research Institute's ARC/INFO software, the data base consists of the following items: (1) a map coverage containing geologic contacts and units, (2) a coverage containing structural data, (3) a coverage containing geologic unit annotation and leaders, and (4) attribute tables for geologic units (polygons), contacts (arcs), and site-specific data (points). In addition, the data set includes the following graphic and text products: (1) a postscript graphic plot-file containing the geologic map, topography, cultural data, a Correlation of Map Units (CMU) diagram, a Description of Map Units (DMU), and a key for point and line symbols, and (2) PDF files of the Readme (including the metadata file as an appendix), and the graphic produced by the Postscript plot file. The Romoland quadrangle is located in the northern part of the Peninsular Ranges Province within the central part of the Perris block, a relatively stable, rectangular in plan view, area located between the Elsinore and San Jacinto fault zones. The quadrangle is underlain by pre-Cretaceous basement rocks that are intruded by plutonic rocks of the composite, Cretaceous Peninsular Ranges batholith. Within the quadrangle, the batholith is represented by a wide variety of granitic rocks, ranging from granite to gabbro. Segments of two major plutonic complexes are within the quadrangle. In the southern part of the quadrangle is the northern segment of the Paloma Valley ring complex, which is elliptical in plan view and consists of an older ring-dike with two subsidiary short-arced dikes that were emplaced into gabbro by magmatic stoping. Small to large stoped blocks of gabbro are common within the ring-dikes. A younger ring-set of hundreds of thin pegmatite dikes occur largely within the central part of the complex. These pegmatite dikes were emplaced into a domal fracture system, apparently produced by cauldron subsidence, and include in the center of the complex a number of flat-floored granophyre bodies. The granophyre is interpreted to be the result of pressure quenching of pegmatite magma. Scattered exposures of the upper shallower part of the Domenigoni Valley pluton occur throughout the central and eastern part of the quadrangle. This pluton consists of massive biotite-hornblende granodiorite and tonalite. Common to abundant, equant-shaped, mafic inclusions occur throughout the pluton except in the outermost part which is devoid of all inclusions. The pluton was passively emplaced by piecemeal stoping of a variety of older rocks producing sharp contacts with the country rock (near center of section 23 west of Menifee Road). Rock of the pluton permeates much of the impure quartzite located on the east side of Quail Valley, which represents host rocks immediately above the roof of the pluton. Associated with this pluton is a swarm of latite dikes; the main part of which occurs to the east in the Winchester 7.5' quadrangle. Most latite dikes, that occur in both the pluton and adjacent metamorphic rocks, are notably foliated and most have a well developed lineation defined by oriented biotite and (or) hornblende crystals. In the pluton, emplacement of these dikes was controlled by northwest striking joints; in the metamorphic rocks the dikes were emplaced along foliation planes. Prebatholitic rocks of probable Mesozoic age include a wide variety of sedimentary rocks of greenschist or lower metamorphic grade. Common lithologies include phyllite, lithic graywacke, impure quartzite, metaarkose, and interlayered quartzite and phyllite. Most of the layering and foliation in the metamorphic rocks is structurally transposed layering and is not relic bedding. An exception is relic cross bedding, which is found only locally. Valley areas in the quadrangle are underlain primarily by coalesced Pleistocene alluvial fan deposits. The flood plain of Salt Creek (not named on topographic base map), a major tributary of the San Jacinto River, bisects the western part of the quadrangle, forming the eastern arm of Railroad Canyon Reservoir. The geologic map data base contains original U.S. Geological Survey data generated by detailed field observation recorded on 1:24,000 scale aerial photographs. The map was created by transferring lines from the aerial photographs to a 1:24,000 scale topographic base. The map was digitized and lines, points, and polygons were subsequently edited using standard ARC/INFO commands. Digitizing and editing artifacts significant enough to display at a scale of 1:24,000 were corrected. Within the database, geologic contacts are represented as lines (arcs), geologic units are polygons, and site-specific data as points. Polygon, arc, and point attribute tables (.pat, .aat, and .pat, respectively) uniquely identify each geologic datum. Purpose: The data set for the Romoland 7.5' quadrangle was prepared under the U.S. Geological Survey Southern California Areal Mapping Project (SCAMP) as part of an ongoing effort to develop a regional geologic framework of southern California, and to utilize a Geographic Information System (GIS) format to create regional digital geologic databases. These regional databases are being developed as contributions to the National Geologic Map Database of the National Cooperative Geologic Mapping Program of the USGS.

The data should not be used for purposes of site-specific land-use planning or site-specific geologic evaluations. The database is sufficiently detailed to identify and characterize many actual and potential geologic hazards represented by faults and landslides and posed by ground subsidence and earthquake-generated ground shaking. However, it is not sufficiently detailed for site-specific determinations or evaluations of these features. Faults shown do not take the place of fault-rupture hazard zones designated by the California State Geologist (see Hart, 1988). Use of this digital geologic-map database should not violate the spatial resolution of the data. Although the digital form of the data removes the constraint imposed by the scale of a paper map, the detail and accuracy inherent in map scale are also present in the digital data. The fact that this database was compiled and edited at a scale of 1:24,000 means that higher resolution information may not have been uniformly retained in the dataset. Plotting at scales larger than 1:24,000 will not yield greater real detail, although it may reveal fine-scale irregularities below the intended resolution of the database. Similarly, although higher resolution data is incorporated in most of the map, the resolution of the combined output will be limited by the lower resolution data.

Geospatial_Data_Presentation_Form: vector digital data Series_Information: Series_Name: U.S. Geological Survey Open-File Report Issue_Identification: USGS OF 99-172 Publication_Information: Publication_Place: California Publisher: U.S. Geological Survey Online_Linkage: http://geopubs.wr.usgs.gov/open-file/of99-172 Data_Quality_Information: Attribute_Accuracy: Attribute_Accuracy_Report: Geologic-map units in the Romoland quadrangle database were described using standard field methods. Consistent with these methods, the database author has assigned standard geologic attributes to geologic lines, points, and polygons identified in the database. Nation-wide geologic-map accuracy standards have not been developed and adopted by the U.S. Geological Survey and other earth-science entities. Until such standards are adopted, the SCAMP project has developed internal map-accuracy standards for 1:24,000-scale geologic maps produced by the project. Geologic lines and points on 1:24,000 scale geologic maps are judged to meet SCAMP's internal map-accuracy standards if they are located to within +/-15 meters, relative to topographic or cultural features on the base map. On any derivative geologic-map plot, line data that are judged to meet the SCAMP internal map-accuracy standard are denoted by solid lines; line data that may not meet the SCAMP internal map-accuracy standard are denoted by dashed or dotted lines. There is no cartographic device for denoting the map-accuracy for geologic-point data (e.g., symbols representing bedding, foliation, lineations, etc.). Logical_Consistency_Report: Polygon and chain-node topology present. The areal extent of the map is represented digitally by an appropriately projected (polyconic projection), mathematically generated box. Consequently, polygons intersecting the lines that comprise the map boundary are closed by that boundary. Polygons internal to the map boundary are completely enclosed by line segments which are themselves a set of sequentially numbered coordinate pairs. Point data are represented by coordinate pairs. Completeness_Report: The geologic map database of the Romoland 7.5' quadrangle contains new data that have been subjected to rigorous review and are a substantially complete representation of the current state of knowledge concerning the geology of the quadrangle. Positional_Accuracy: Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy: Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report: The maximum transformation RMS error acceptable for a 7.5' quadrangle transformation and data input is 0.003 (1.8 meters). Horizontal positional accuracy was checked by visual comparison of hard-copy plots with base-stable source data.
