By Kurt J. McCoy, Melvin H. Podwysocki, E. Allen Crider, and  David J. Weary, 2005 ,  U.S. Geological Survey Open-File Report 2005-1407


All data is projected to UTM Zone 18N, Datum NAD83, units meters

A graphic file suitable for printing of the full map plate layout with description of map units, discussion, etc. is compressed in the file: jefferson_fractures.zip This file is in Adobe Acrobat (.pdf)format. The Adobe Acrobat Reader is available free, online at:  http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html

The GIS layers are in the form of an ESRI personal geodatabase, with copies also provided as ESRI shapefiles. An ArcMap map file (jefferson_fractures.mxd) is provided that will portray the GIS data layers provided. This map was created in ArcGIS V.9.0. These data are compressed into the file:  GIS_data.zip
The extracted file structure is:

	/GIS_data/
		/shapefiles/ (subdirectory containing shapefiles for the GIS vector data layers, see metadata files 			for explanation of data layers)
		jefferson_fractures.mdb (ESRI personal geodatabase containing GIS vector data)
		jefferson_fractures.mxd (ArcMap map document for displaying the GIS data from the jefferson_fractures.mdb)

Metadata files for the the GIS layers are compressed into the file:  metadata.zip
the extracted file structure is:

	/metadata/
		bedrock_metadata.txt (metadata for the bedrock GIS data layer)
		faults_metadata.txt (metadata for the fault GIS data layer)
		folds_metadata.txt (metadata for the fold GIS data layer)
		lineations_metadata.txt (metadata for the fracture trace GIS data layer)
		wells_metadata.txt (metadata for the wells GIS data layer)



A base georegistered topographic map is included, compressed into the file: base_drg.zip
		jeffersonco_100k.tif (georegistered base map, originated from USGS 1:100,000 scale topogaphic map)
