Mylar originals of the map sheets were scanned, and the resultant images were rectified to a mathematically-generated set of latitude and longitude registration points. Geologic linework was digitized from the rectified images on screen using ArcView (ver. 3.2), and the resultant shapefiles were converted to ArcInfo (ver. 7.2) coverages. Lines and polygons were then attributed; and the files were merged omtp a single ArcInfo database (quib24k). This digital spatial database is one of many being created by the U.S. Geological Survey as an ongoing effort to provide geologic information in a geographic information system (GIS) for use in spatial analysis. This database can be queried in many ways to produce a variety of geologic maps. Digital base map data files (topography, roads, towns, rivers and lakes, etc.) are not included: they may be obtained from a variety of commercial and government sources. This database is not meant to be used or displayed at any scale larger than 1:24,000 (for example, 1:12,000). The map area is located in southeastern Arizona (fig. 1). This report describes the map units, the methods used to convert the geologic map data into a digital format, and the ArcInfo GIS file structures and relationships; and it explains how to download the digital files from the U.S. Geological Survey public access World Wide Web site on the Internet. See figures 2 and 3 for page-size versions of the map compilation. Manuscript and digital data review by Helen Kayser is greatly appreciated.

Stephen Pitts on a Scanographics CF500/4 scanner using ScanServ 3.5.1 software. Pitts mathematically generated a tic file with tics of the study area spaced at 2.5-minute intervals, and Karen Bolm rectified the scanned images using ESRI ArcView Image Analysis. Bolm and Tasha Lewis digitized the linework in ArcView (ver. 3.2) and attributed the lines and polygons. The digital files were then converted to ArcInfo (ver. 7.2) format, augumented with an interim geologic map data model (data base), further attributed and edited, and then plotted and compared to the original geologic maps to check for digitizing and attributing errors. When the digital geologic maps were plotted and compared to the mylar originals (Dickinson, 1993, 1998, 2000), the authors discovered considerable north/south distortion in the set of ten maps (Dickinson, 1998). A comparison of the mylars with their corresponding 1:24,000-scale base maps revealed a similar north/south distortion in the mylars. The authors concluded that the mylars probably stretched from being repeatedly run through a hot, roll-feed copy machine to make copies of the map for sale. Due to this distortion, it is difficult to estimate the accuracy of the Dickinson (1998) portion of the digital database. The horizontal accuracy of linear features is estimated to be within 24 meters. This digital database is not meant to be used at any scale larger than 1:24,000 (for example 1:12,000 or 1:2,000). GIS Documentation The digital geologic map of the Quiburis Formation and surrounding area includes a geologic linework arc attribute table, QUIB24K.AAT, that relates to the QUIB24K.CO3, QUIB24K.ST3, QUIB24K.LGU, and QUIB24K.REF files; a rock unit polygon attribute table, QUIB24K.PAT, that relates to the QUIB24K.RU and QUIB24K.REF files; and a geologic map symbol point attribute table, QUIB24KP.PAT, that relates to the QUIB24KP.SYM and QUIB24KP.REF files (see fig. 4).

Strike is an azimuthal angle (measured in degrees from 0 to 360 in a clockwise direction from North). dip integer 2 Dip of bedding, foliation or cleavage. This value is an angle measured (in degrees from 0 to 90) down from the horizontal; thus a horizontal dip is 0 degrees and a vertical dip is 90 degrees. ai_ang integer 4 An interim value used to calculate sym$angle. The various structural map symbols in the SCAMP2D.MRK markerset (Matti and others, 1997) had to be rotated by different amounts to achieve their proper map orientation. For the strike and dip symbols, ai_ang = strike - 270. sym$ang integer 3 The angle used to complete the mathematical rotation of the structural map symbol to its proper orientation on the map. The various point symbols in the SCAMP2D.MRK markerset (after Matti and others, 1997) had to be rotated by different amounts to achieve their proper map orientation. This value is the $angle pseudoitem value for the point. source integer 4 Numeric code used to identify the data source for the structural map symbol. Complete references for the sources are listed in the QUIB24KP.REF file. Attribute descriptions for items in the geologic map symbols look-up table, QUIB24KP.SYM, [for use with the SCAMP2D.MRK markerset (Matti and others, 1997)], are as follows: QUIB24KP.SYM ITEM NAME ITEM TYPE ITEM LENGTH ATTRIBUTE DESCRIPTION pnttype character 50 Type of point symbol, for example, strike and dip of inclined bedding, strike and dip of inclined cleavage.

Obtaining Digital Data The complete digital version of the geologic map is available in ArcInfo interchange format with associated data files. These data are maintained in a Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) map projection (QUIB24K): Projection: UTM Zone: 12 Units: meters Datum: NAD27 and in a geographic reference system (latitude and longitude) (QUIB24KG): Projection: geographic Units: decimal degrees Datum: NAD27 To obtain copies of the digital data, do one of the following: * Download the digital files from the USGS public access World Wide Web site on the Internet: URL = http://geopubs.wr.usgs.gov/open-file/of02-393/ OR * Anonymous FTP from geopubs.wr.usgs.gov, in the directory pub/open-file/of02-393. These Internet sites contain the spatial digital database and metadata for the geologic map of the Quiburis Formation and surrounding units as ArcInfo exchange-format files (see listing of files in Appendix A). Formatted metadata (Federal Geographic Data Committee-compliant) is included as Appendix B. To manipulate these data in a geographic information system (GIS), you must have a GIS that is capable of reading ArcInfo interchange-format files. Obtaining Paper Maps Paper copies of the digital geologic map are not available from the U.S Geological Survey. However, with access to the Internet and access to large-format color plotter that can interpret PDF (portable document format) files, 1:125,000-scale paper copies can be made. The database includes the entire area of the twelve 1:24,000-scale map sheets in the original publications (Dickinson 1993, 1998, 2000); however, a single plot at 1:24,000 would be too large for a plotter. Hence a single plot at 1:125,000 (quib24k_map.pdf) has been made which approximates the extent of the original map sheets. 1. Download the digital version of the map sheet, quib24k_map.pdf from the USGS public access World Wide Web site on the Internet using the URL = http://geopubs.wr.usgs.gov/open-file/of02-393/ or 2. Anonymous FTP the plot files listed above from geopubs.wr.usgs.gov, in the directory pub/open-file/of02-393. The sheet is formatted to fit on a 36-inch by-48 inch sheet . Paper copies of the map can also be created by obtaining the digital files described in the previous section and then creating a plot file in a GIS.

Bolm and Tasha Lewis digitized these data from scans of the Dickinson (1993, 1998, 2000) maps made by G. Stephen Pitts. Douglas M. Hirschberg provided programs to aid in attribution of the data, and William R. Dickinson provided attribute information, assisted in the editing, and resolved problems resulting from the combination of three maps. Native_Data_Set_Environment: SunOS, 5.6, sun4u UNIX ARCINFO version 7.2.1 ARCINFO version 8.1 ArcView version 3.2 for Windows Data_Quality_Information: Attribute_Accuracy: Attribute_Accuracy_Report: When the digitized maps were printed and compared to the Dickinson (1998) mylar originals, a considerable north/south distortion was discovered. The mylar originals were compared to topographic maps of the same area and it was determined that the distortion was due to the mylars becoming stretched during repetitive copy processing. Because of this distortion of the Dickinson(1998) maps, it is difficult to estimate the accuracy of this digital map. Accuracy of the digitized versions of the Dickinson (1993, 2000) maps was verified by manual comparison of the source with hard copy printouts and plots and with screen images. Logical_Consistency_Report: Polygon and chain-node topology present. The Dickinson (1993, 1998, 2000) maps were digitized by Karen S. Bolm and Tasha Lewis. Attributes have the same meaning throughout the maps. In some cases, however, units and lines symbols were not consistent from one map to the other. In those cases, one attribute had to be chosen over the other. Completeness_Report: Some of the units at the edge of the Dickinson (1993, 1998, 2000) maps were labeled, but accurate contacts were not defined. In those cases, either units were attributed as "unmapped" or not included on the digital version or new contacts were added by William R. Dickinson. Some labeling, which could not be easily included as attribution, was omitted. Also, some of the symbolization chosen for this dataset is different than that used by Dickinson (1993, 1998, 2000). This was done to standardize products. The original Dickinson (1993, 1998, 2000) maps were drawn on topographic background. Digital versions of those topographic maps are not included with this dataset. Positional_Accuracy: Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy: Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report: Due to distortions in the original maps, it was impossible to test the accuracy of the digital mapping of the Dickinson (1998) maps. Based on testing of the the Dickinson (1993, 2000) maps, it is estimated that the features are accurate to within 24 meters.

Process_Step: Process_Description: Twelve 1:24,000-scale mylar maps that comprise three Dickinson (1993, 1998, 2000) reports were scanned by G. Stephen Pitts on a Scanographics CF500/4 scanner using ScanServ 3.5.1 software. Pitts mathmetically generated a tic file with tics of the study area spaced at 2.5' intervals, and Karen S. Bolm rectified the scanned images using ESRI ArcView Image Analysis. Bolm and Tasha Lewis digitized the linework using Geologic Mapping Tools, An ArcView extension developed by William R. Kelley (contractor at the U.S. Geological Survey's Western Regional Mineral Resources Team, Spokane Field Office). Lines and polygons were Attributed by Bolm in ArcInfo 7.2.1. Points were digitized from the scanned images using digpnt.aml, and attribution was retrieved for annotation using getdip.aml, both programs written by Douglas M. Hirschberg. Process_Date: 2000-2001 Process_Step: Process_Description: After review, it was decided to merge the three Dickinson (1993, 1998, 2000) maps into a single spatial digital database. The coverages were merged by Karen S. Bolm, and discrepancies were resolved by her and William R. Dickinson. Some additional contacts had to be added to separate units that were originally on the edges of the mapped areas. Duplicate lines and points were removed. Maps were plotted at 1:24,000 and checked for errors.
