Description:
Abstract: These digital maps are a
reformulation of previously published maps, primarily maps of states. The
reformulation gives all the maps the same structure and format, allowing them
to be combined into regional maps. The associated data tables have information
about age and lithology of the map units, also in a standard format.
Purpose: Provide digital maps and databases
that, because of their common structure and format, allow creation of regional
maps that depict age and lithology of map units.
Supplemental_Information: The data is
provided in decimal degrees and in Lambert Conformal Conic projection. The data
is provided in both coverage and shapefile format, and includes supplemental
attribute tables. No attempt was made to reconcile differences in mapping
across state boundaries.

This database is not meant to be used at
scales appreciably larger or smaller than the original scale. Any printed
material utilizing these databases shall clearly indicate their source. If
modifications to the data are made, this should be clearly indicated and
described in print. Users specifically agree not to misrepresent these data,

Geological Survey.
This database has been approved for release
and publication by the Director of the U.S. Geological Survey. Although the
database has been subjected to review and is substantially complete, the U.S.
Geological Survey reserves the right to revise the data pursuant to further
analysis and review. The database is released on the condition that neither the U.S. Geological Survey or the United States
Government may be held liable for any damages resulting from its authorized or

Data_Quality_Information:
Attribute_Accuracy:
Attribute_Accuracy_Report: Map unit
designations follow original compilation faithfully. Regional designations were
added to map units. Additional information about age and lithology was obtained
from the paper map legend and geologic literature.
Logical_Consistency_Report: All internal
polygons were checked for closure. Overshoots and undershoots have been deleted
or corrected as appropriate.
Completeness_Report: The dataset contains all
the map units and faults that were portrayed on the original printed map.
Bodies of water are classified as water, and geologic units underlying them are
not portrayed.
Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:
The geologic map was digitized from compilations ranging in scale from
1:100,000 to 1:1,000,000, and is an accurate representation of the source maps.
It is intended to be used at scales equal to or smaller than 1:500,000. Display
at significantly larger scales may produce error in location of contacts or
faults relative to features contained in other data sets. The state boundary
arcs are based on the 1:100,000 scale USGS topographic map series digital line
graphs.

Process_Step:
Process_Description: Dataset copied from
the CD-ROM.
Process_Date: 2002
Process_Step:
Process_Description: Adjusted the
perimeter of the coverage to match a reference dataset of state boundaries
derived from 1:100,000 scale digital line graphs. This allows the map to be
used together with adjoining state maps referenced to the same boundary data.
The state boundaries have a source of US001 in the AAT.
Process_Date: 2004
Process_Step:
Process_Description: Created 13 new
polygons to conform to the paper map. These polygons have a SOURCE of UT901 in
the PAT.
Process_Date: 2006
Process_Step:
Process_Description: One polygon was
untagged in original digital coverage; it was tagged to conform to the Box
Elder 1:250,000 map. This polygon has a SOURCE of UT902 in the PAT.
Process_Date: 2006
Process_Step:
Process_Description: Labels for 35
polygons were changed to conform to the paper map. These polygons have a SOURCE
of UT903 in the PAT

Process_Description: One polygon label
was changed to conform to the Escalante1:250,000 map. This polygon has a SOURCE
of UT905 in the PAT.
Process_Date: 2006
Process_Step:
Process_Description: The appropriate arcs
were recoded as state and international boundaries.These
have a SOURCE of US001 in the AAT.
Process_Date: 2006
Process_Step:
Process_Description: To prepare a uniform
AAT file, the following items were added: arc-code, arc-para1, and arc-para2.
The last two are not used. Arc-code was populated, using the information in the
original item, and inspection of the printed map. Then the original items in
the AAT were deleted.
Process_Date: 2006
Process_Step:
Process_Description: To prepare a uniform
PAT file, the following items were added: ORIG_LABEL, SGMC_LABEL, UNIT_LINK,
SOURCE, UNIT_AGE, ROCKTYPE1, and ROCKTYPE2. New unit designations for
SGMC_LABEL were developed by Steve Ludington based on the key to

Process_Description: The labels of 28
polygons were changed to conform to the Box Elder 1:250,000 map.These
polygons have a SOURCE of UT912 in the PAT.
Process_Date: 2006
Process_Step:
Process_Description: The labels of 73
polygons were changed to conform with stratigraphic
sequence and appearance on the paper map. These polygons have a SOURCE of UT913
in the PAT.
Process_Date: 2006
Process_Step:
Process_Description: Twenty-four arcs
were added to split polygons and create new ones to conform to the paper map.
These arcs have a SOURCE of UT801 in the AAT.
Process_Date: 2006
Process_Step:
Process_Description: 470 arcs were
changed to ARC-CODE = 8 because the identity of the polygons on both sides of
the arc were the same. These arcs have a SOURCE of UT802 in the AAT.
Process_Date: 2006
Process_Step:
Process_Description: 295 arcs were given
ARC-CODE = 8 because they were tagged as "Gilsonite
veins" on the original coverage, and there is no corresponding arc code.
These arcs have a SOURCE of UT803 in the AAT.
Process_Date: 2006
Process_Step:
Process_Description: ARC-CODE was changed
on 102 arcs to conform to the paper map. This included labelilng
water boundaries. These arcs have a SOURCE of UT804 in the AAT.
