Data

This digital database was compiled with ArcInfo version 7.2.1 and consists of files containing geologic map and topographic base data in ArcInfo coverage format. ArcInfo-compatible GIS software is therefore required to use the files of this database. The database is stored in a single zipped folder (medicine-lake.zip) in this release for ease of transfer. The zip file contains geology, organized by quadrangle, and all of the relevant GIS layers and metadata. The scale of the source map limits the spatial resolution (scale) of the database to 1:50,000 or smaller. Available ArcInfo coverages are described below:
ArcInfo
