Description:
Abstract:
This geologic map database describes geologic materials for the Kelso 7.5 Minute Quadrangle, San Bernardino County, California. The area lies in eastern Mojave Desert of California, within the Mojave National Preserve. Geologic units in the area consist of Proterozoic metamorphic rocks, Cambrian-Neoproterozoic sedimentary rocks, Mesozoic plutonic and hypabyssal rocks, Tertiary basin fill, and Quaternary surficial deposits. This Report consists of 3 parts: 1) the documentation of the report, including a geologic discussion, 2) digital spatial data in the form of 2 ARC/INFO coverages, and 3) a printable geologic map
Purpose:
Documents surficial deposits, soil development characteristics and geomorphic relationships, along with bedrock composition and structure.

Use_Constraints:
Acknowledgement of the U.S. Geological Survey; uses of this digital geologic map 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.

Data_Quality_Information:
Attribute_Accuracy:
Attribute_Accuracy_Report:
map units, contacts, or faults are attributed with an appended '?' if their designation is assumed and not definite.
Logical_Consistency_Report:
Geologic lines attributed as a 'contact' do not separate geologic map units of the same type, and are not considered as 'dangles'. All geologic polygons are attributed with map unit designators found in the Description of Map Units

Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report: Accuracy of line locations is carried in the database and displayed by different line symbols (solid vs. dashed lines) in the cartographic display. For the purpose of this database, solid lines represent contacts and faults located with an accuracy greater than 10 m and commonly greater than 5 m. Dashed lines represent two kinds of less certainly located features, each distinguished in the database: 1) contacts and faults located with an accuracy of 10 to 15 m, 2) contacts that represent gradational boundaries between adjacent units. Gradational contacts represent interleaving of sediments and smooth gradations in characteristics such as percentage of eolian sand. In general, these gradations take place over distances of 50 to 150 m. Lineaments and fold axes are lines whose positions do not affect location of polygons; they are located with an accuracy of 25 m.

Overview_Description:
Entity_and_Attribute_Overview:
The primary layer is the geology layer (kls-geol), which consists of both polygon features and arc features that describes map units (polygons), and depositional contacts, faults (which may or may not be polygon bounding features) and map boundaries.

Map units (polygons) are described in the polygon attribute table (kls-geol.pat). The identities of the map units are recorded in the PTYPE field by map label (i.e. Qia). For a description of the map units, consult the PostScript or PDF explanation pamphlets in this report or the printable map sheet.

Geologic lines (arcs) are recorded as strings of vectors and are described in the arc attribute table (kls-geol.aat). They define the boundaries of the map units, the faults, and the map boundaries. These distinctions, including the geologic identities of the unit boundaries, are recorded in the LTYPE field. Attributes for geologic lines generally follow a scheme of the type of geologic line (i.e. fault), followed by a locational and/or scientific modifier (i.e. approx. located or queried).
