Summary
Abstract: This report is a digital database package containing both plotfiles and
Geographic Information Systems (GIS) databases of maps of slides and earth
flows in the San Francisco Bay Region. The data are provided for both the
entire region and each county within the region, in two formats. The data is
provided as ARC/INFO (Environmental Systems Research Institute, Redlands, CA)
coverages for use in GIS packages, and as PostScript plotfiles of formatted
maps similar to traditional U.S. Geological Survey map products. There is also
a pamphlet available describing the databases and plotfiles
