Status |
GIS Surface Effects Map. This attribute is used to display detonation site symbols (style and color) on the surface effects maps. Values include: (1) Mapped--Surface Effects (2) Mapped--No Surface Effects (3) Not Mapped. Note: Detonations listed as “Mapped—Surface Effects” produced observable SE and a GIS SE map is included in the archive. Sites listed as “Mapped--No Surface Effects” include those detonations that produced no observable SE or only minor SE that were not formally mapped. |
Text |
Mapped-- Surface effects |
|
Se_map |
Surface Effects Map. Was a post-detonation SE map prepared for the site? Values include: (1) Yes, (2) No, and (3) No SE. Note: “Yes” is used for detonations with a status of “Mapped—Surface Effects” (as in Status item (1), above). “No” indicates that a SE map was either not prepared or not found. "No SE" indicates that no surface effects were observed or mapped for the detonation (as in Status item (2), above) |
Text |
Yes |
|
Se_source |
Source information about the original surface effects map that was used to prepare the GIS SE map for the detonation site. Scanned and georeferenced copies of these original maps are contained in the archive. |
