Summary

Abstract:
This data set was created for a project to develop data sets to support ground-water vulnerability analysis. The objective was to create and document a digital geospatial data set from a published report or map, or existing digital geospatial data set that could be used in ground-water vulnerability analysis. This data set consists of digital aquifer boundaries for the alluvial and terrace deposits along the Cimarron River from Freedom to Guthrie in northwestern Oklahoma. Ground water in 1,305 square miles of Quaternary-age alluvial and terrace deposits along the Cimarron River from Freedom to Guthrie is an important source of water for irrigation, industrial, municipal, stock, and domestic supplies. Alluvial and terrace deposits are composed of interfingering lenses of clay, sandy clay, and cross-bedded poorly sorted sand and gravel. The aquifer is composed of hydraulically connected alluvial and terrace deposits that uncomfortably overlie the Permian-age Formations. The aquifer boundaries along geological contacts were extracted from published digital geology data sets. Additional boundaries defining the geographic limits of the aquifer and areas of less than 5 feet saturated thickness were digitized from a mylar map, at a scale of 1:250,000. The maps were published at a scale of 1:900,000. |

Features representing aquifer boundaries along geological contacts were extracted from the digital surficial geology data sets by Cederstrand, (1996a, 1996b, 1996c, 1996d) based on a scale of 1:250,000. Polygon boundaries defining the geographic limits of the aquifer and areas of less than 5 feet saturated thickness were digitized from a mylar source map (33 inches by 31 inches), at a scale of 1:250,000. Aquifer boundaries represented at these scales are indicative of broad, regional trends and should not be interpreted as site specific. The aquifer boundaries that were digitized from a mylar source map had a maximum root-mean-squared-error (RMSE) of 0.008 map inches (0.020 map centimeters) or 167.49 feet (51.05 meters) ground distance. |
