Data

This digital GIS dataset and accompanying nonspatial files synthesize model outputs from a regional-scale volumetric 3D geologic model that portrays the generalized subsurface geology of the Michigan Basin region of Michigan, Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana, and Ohio. The intent of this product is to rapidly and efficiently synthesize large quantities of geologic data from a wide variety of...

This data release includes digital geographic information system (GIS) data which was extracted from the U.S. Geological Survey Professional Paper 1300, volumes 1 and 2. Included are 14 shapefiles comprised of points, lines, and polygons representing the items shown in the page size figures from the reports, and one .lyrx symbology file for use in ArcGIS Pro. Also included are 364...

This GIS dataset presents contours and maps from previously published interpretations of hydrogeologic units of the northern Great Plains by Downey (1986). The original source publication was completed as a component of the United States Geological Survey’s (USGS) Regional Aquifer System Analysis (RASA) professional paper series. Isopach contour maps in this study delineate the upper...

This digital dataset is a result from the goal within the U.S. Geological Survey’s (USGS) National Cooperative Geologic Mapping Program to convert surficial data that were previously published in non-digital format to digital, vector-based data suitable for use by the public and in USGS studies. The objective of the data conversion is to reproduce the original published mapping with...

This geologic database is a digitized version of the original 1:24,000-scale analog geologic map titled "Preliminary geologic map of the Monkeys Head quadrangle, Mohave and La Paz Counties, Arizona", published by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) in 1988. The Monkeys Head 7.5-minute quadrangle is located at the confluence of the Colorado and Bill Williams Rivers in westernmost Arizona...

This digital database release contains elevation surfaces on 24 surfaces representing the tops of geological formations in the Denver Basin. These surfaces were exported as raster data from Leapfrog software, in which the model was constructed. Inputs to the model include well top data compiled from state agencies, formation contacts extracted from the Stage Geological Map Compilation...

A digital version of the 1:500,000 scale geologic map of Alabama (Osborne and others, 1989) was required for a new national compilation of state geologic maps and U.S. Geological Survey regional maps, but the map had not previously been digitized. The USGS National Cooperative Geologic Mapping Program’s (NCGMP) National Geologic Synthesis Project worked with the Geological Survey of...

This data release contains digital location and downhole lithologic data for 3,564 drillholes from along a portion of the South Platte River in eastern Colorado. The drillholes are located within the east half of the Greeley and the west half of the Fort Morgan USGS 1:100,000 scale maps. Subsurface lithologic data is intended to extend the results of surficial geologic mapping to the...

These datasets consist of four, 1-meter spatial resolution digital surface models (DSMs) that were generated to orthorectify airborne multispectral imagery acquired in 2002, 2009, 2013, and 2021 for the Colorado River in Grand Canyon in Arizona, USA. These datasets also consist of a 1-meter spatial resolution digital elevation model (DEM) that was generated from the 2021 DSM. The DSMs...

The catastrophic, explosive eruption of Mount St. Helens, Washington, on May 18, 1980, is the most well-known eruption of the volcano. Less well known is that the May 18 eruption marked the beginning of a period of eruptive activity that lasted through 1986. Beginning in October 1980, a series of 17 dome-building episodes added millions of cubic meters of lava to the crater floor. Most...
