Pre-existing features associated with active faulting in the vicinity of the 2019 Ridgecrest, California earthquake sequence
June 3, 2020
This dataset is composed of linear active tectonic and other relevant features (scarps, deflected drainages, and lineaments and contrasts in topography, vegetation, and ground color) mapped based on high-resolution topography, aerial/satellite imagery, and field observations. The mapping covers the area surrounding the 2019 Ridgecrest, California earthquake surface ruptures. Point locations of field observations are also included.
