Summary
Abstract: The map and descriptions offer information that may be used for: land-use
planning (e.g. selecting land fill sites, greenbelts, avoiding geologic
hazards), for finding aggregate resources (crushed rock, sand, and gravel), for
study of geomorphology and Quaternary geology. Geologic hazards (e.g.,
landslides, swelling soils, heaving bedrock, and flooding) known to be located
in, or characteristic of ... View entire text

Description: The browse graphic file depicts a layout, featuring
geologic map and supporting information. The geologic map image is
colored, labeled polygons of surficial geologic units and is shown
with a scanned image of roads, rivers, political boundaries, place
names, and other base map features, all registered to the geologic
map. These features are the standard USGS 1:250,000 base map data,
including longitude and latitude, numbered UTM (meters), and the
Colorado State Coordinate System (feet) grid ticks (21 internal grid
tics at 15-minute intervals of longitude and latitude are
visible). Supporting information includes a correlation chart of
geologic map units, a list of map unit symbols and names, and a small
location map that shows the quadrangle location relative to rivers,
state boundaries, and locations of 26 published USGS geologic maps
(1:250,000 scale) in the Colorado Plateau and western Great
Plains. This PDF file is optimized for highest print quality.

An accompanying pamphlet includes a complete description of map
units, selected references, and a description of terminology used.

Use Constraints These data present a snapshot in time, but are representative for the location
and depth where collected. Identification is done where applicable and known;
different taxonomies might result into different species names.

Pecularities of Russian name translations into English and for doing fieldwork
in Russian waters in the mid-1950 should be considered when analyzing these
data. These data cannot be redistributed to third parties.
