Judd Goldberg

Judd Goldberg is a Geologist with the Geosciences and Environmental Change Science Center

I spent the first half of my career subsurface mapping Rocky Mountain basins as an exploration geologist in the petroleum industry. During that time, I received a Master's in Geology from the Colorado School of Mines in 2011. Now, I am assisting the USGS in the construction of a national-scale three-dimensional geological map of the United States.

National Geologic Synthesis

The National Cooperative Geologic Mapping Program (NCGMP) Strategic Plan of 2020 calls for the creation of a “variable-scale, national, integrated 2D and 3D geologic-framework model that enables the seamless construction of geologic maps within user-defined regions of interest across the United States by the year 2030” (USGS Open-File Report 2021-1013*). Congress recently directed NCGMP to “bring...

Digital hydrogeologic framework model of the Upper Colorado River Basin, western U.S.

This digital dataset was created as part of a U.S. Geological Survey hydrologic resource assessment and development of an integrated numerical hydrologic model of the hydrologic system of the Upper Colorado River Basin, an extensive region covering approximately 412,000 square kilometers in five states: Wyoming, Colorado, Utah, Arizona, and New Mexico. As part of this larger study, the USGS develo

Digital data of the previously published geologic map showing configuration of the bedrock, North Platte, 1 degree x 2 degrees quadrangle, Nebraska

This digital data release contains previously published geologic data compiled for the North Platte 250k quadrangle, a region in west-central Nebraska largely covered by Quaternary deposits, with exposures of Tertiary Ogallala and Brule formations in the southern portion of the study area. Geologic map data were compiled for the purposes of digitizing the geologic data as part of the National Coop

Data Release - Digital subsurface data from previously published contoured maps of the tops of the Mowry Shale, Morrison Formation, and Minnelusa Formation, Powder River basin, Wyoming and Montana

This digital data release contains previously published contours on the tops of the Mowry Shale, Morrison Formation, and Minnelusa Formation. The maps are from a series of U.S. Geological Survey Miscellaneous Field Studies (MF) showing computer-generated structure contours, isopachs, and cross sections of selected formations in the Powder River basin, Wyoming and Montana (Crysdale 1990, 1991a, 199
