It was digitized from maps of fault locations and geologic map units based on age and lithology. Created for use in the Jefferson County Mountain Ground-Water Resources Study, it is to be used at a scale no more detailed than 1:50,000. Purpose: This data set was created for analysis of the ground-water system of the study area. Supplemental_Information: The source materials for the generation of this data set consist of bedrock geology mapped on U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) topographic quadrangles at a scale of 1:24,000 by the USGS. The source materials were converted to digital format, topologically developed, and attributed on a quadrangle-by- quadrangle basis before being combined into one data set. The procedures for converting the materials to digital format differed for each quadrangle and are summarized as follows: Conifer The original camara-ready transparency of the map publication, Reconnaissance Geologic Map of the Conifer Quadrangle, Jefferson County, Colorado, was obtained from the USGS. A film-positive was made from this transparency. To simplify the linework, this film-positive was then traced by hand onto mylar. The mylar was then digitally scanned at 300 dots per inch (dpi) and stored as a TIFF image. Using Arc/INFO software from Environmental Systems Research Institute, the image was georeferenced to real-world coordinates and converted into an Arc/INFO raster data set format known as a grid, which was then vectorized into an Arc/INFO vector data set format known as a coverage. A quadrangle boundary outline that was generated from quadrangle boundary coordinates and then projected into real-world coordinates was added to the coverage, which was then converted to a coverage with polygon topology. Line features in the coverage were attributed according to fault type classification, and the polygon features were attributed according to bedrock geologic map unit and fault zone classification. Evergreen An incomplete collection of the original pre-press mylar separates for the map publication, Geologic Map of the Evergreen Quadrangle, Jefferson County, Colorado, was obtained from the USGS. Mylar separates of Quaternary geologic contacts and faults were identified and digitally scanned at 300 dpi into TIFF images. All other geologic contacts in the area of interest were traced onto mylar from a paper print of the map publication. Furthermore, an enclosing polygon outline outside of the area of interest was drawn on the mylar so that the traced contacts would form polygon features. The mylar was then digitally scanned at 300 dpi into a TIFF image. All the images were then georeferenced to real-world coordinates, converted into grids, and vectorized into three separate coverages, one for each of the two mylar sources, and one for the traced source. These coverages were then combined into one coverage. One of the authors of the map publication provided updated nomenclature for Precambrian map units (Bruce Bryant, U.S. Geological Survey, oral communication, 1998) so that the nomenclature would match that of adjacent quadrangles. The line features in the coverage were attributed according to fault type, and polygon features were attributed according to geologic map unit and fault zone classification. Indian Hills A paper print of the map publication, Geologic Map of the Indian Hills Quadrangle, Jefferson County, Colorado, was obtained from the USGS. For the area of interest on the quadrangle, two mylars were hand-traced from this paper print. One mylar consisted of geologic contacts and an enclosing polygon outline outside of the area of interest that was drawn so that the contacts would form polygon features. The other mylar consisted of fault traces. The two mylars were then digitally scanned at 300 dpi into TIFF images. These images were georeferenced to real-world coordinates and converted into grids which were then vectorized into coverages. The coverages were then combined into one coverage. One of the authors of the map publication provided updated nomencla- ture for Precambrian map units (Bruce Bryant, U.S. Geological Survey, oral communication, 1998) so that the nomenclature would match that of adjacent quadrangles. Line features in the coverage were attributed according to fault type, and polygon features were attributed according to geologic map unit and fault zone classification. Meridian Hill A paper photocopy of preliminary geologic mapping consisting of faults and geologic contacts for the Meridian Hill Quadrangle, Clear Creek, Jefferson, and Park Counties, was obtained from the USGS. For the area of interest on this quadrangle, all the linework was traced onto mylar. Furthermore, an enclosing polygon outline outside of the area of interest was drawn on the mylar so that the traced contacts would form polygon features. The mylar was then digitally scanned at 300 dpi into a TIFF image. The image was georeferenced to real-world coordinates and converted into a grid which was then vectorized into a coverage. Line features in the coverage were then attributed according to fault type, and the polygon features were attributed according to geologic map unit and fault zone classification. Morrison The original pre-press mylar separates for the map publication Geologic Map of the Morrison Quadrangle, Jefferson County, Colorado, were obtained from the USGS. The mylar separate of geologic contacts was digitally scanned at 300 dpi into a TIFF image. This image was georeferenced to real-world coordinates and converted into a grid which was then vectorized into a coverage. The fault linework was digitized into a coverage from another mylar separate of the same publication that had too many other themes on it and was therefore too difficult to scan and vectorize. The fault coverage was then transformed to real-world coordinates. The coverages were then combined into one coverage. An enclosing polygon outline outside of the area of interest was digitized into the coverage so that the geologic contacts would form polygon features. Line features in the coverage were attributed according to fault type, and polygons were attributed according to geologic map unit and fault zone classification. Once the polygon and vector topology was developed for each quadrangle, the individual coverages were combined into one coverage. No edgematching was performed. A study-area outline of the Turkey Creek Watershed was delineated in Arc/INFO with USGS Digital Elevation Model data sets. A 500-meter buffer polygon of this outline was used to clip the geology coverage.

However, due to the nature of bedrock geologic mapping, fault and contact locations will not be as precise as other, more easily-located cartographic features. Furthermore, materials for the Meridian Hill Quadrangle, while compiled at a scale of 1:24,000, were intended for publication at 1:500,000.

Native_Data_Set_Environment: SunOS, 5.6, sun4u UNIX Arc/INFO version 7.2.1 Data_Quality_Information: Attribute_Accuracy: Attribute_Accuracy_Report: Feature attribution is solely based on the source map information. Logical_Consistency_Report: Polygon topology present. Completeness_Report: Because no exact linear feature was used to delineate areas that are intruded by small quartz-monzonite bodies on the source materials, these areas were not recorded in this coverage. All other contacts and fault traces were recorded. Positional_Accuracy: Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy: Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report: Paper hardcopies of the data set were plotted at the same scale as the source material. These hardcopies and the source materials were then compared by the Project Chief to ensure a level of accuracy required for the study. The digital linework is accurate to +/- 7 meters.
