This graphic file was converted to ARC/INFO format by Greg Green and Glen Jones and released as the Geologic Map of New Mexico in ARC/INFO format in 1997. Purpose: This dataset was developed to provide geologic map GIS database of New Mexico for use in future spatial analysis by a variety of users. This database is not meant to be used or displayed at any scale other than 1:500,000. Supplemental_Information: This data base consists of three major Arc/Info GIS datasets: one the geologic map with faults, formations and volcanic vents, two the index and correlation chart and three the sources of geologic data.

Orin Anderson and Glen Jones created a digital New Mexico graphic in 1994. Greg Green and Glen Jones converted this to ARC/INFO in 1997. Process_Step: Process_Description: This geologic map was prepared as part of a study of digital methods and techniques as applied to complex geologic maps. The geologic map was digitized in GSMAP at Socorro, New Mexico by Orin Anderson and Glen Jones and published as the Geologic Map of New Mexico 1:500,000 (Anderson and Jones, 1994) in GSMAP format. The vector line work and polygon point labels were converted to ARC/INFO format on a DOS based PC with GSMARC (Green and Selner,1988). These data were transferred to a Data General UNIX system and loaded into ARC/INFO. Each vector and polygon was given attributes derived from the original 1994 GSMAP geologic map. Both digital versions are at 1:500,000 scale using the Lambert Conformal Conic map projection parameters of the State base map.
