Description:
Abstract:
A compiled set of STRUCTURE CONTOUR features for the state of Kentucky as digitized by the Geospatial Analysis Section, Digital Mapping Team. Data set is derived from the 7.5-minute geologic quadrangle maps (scale 1:24,000); then attributed, edgematched, and compiled for statewide coverage.
Purpose:
These data provide users with a basic geologic framework of mapped structure contours for the state of Kentucky. These data were created with funding from the National Cooperative Geologic Mapping Act's STATEMAP Program, administered by the U.S. Geological Survey. KGS utilized this program to convert existing 7.5-minute geologic quadrangle maps to digital format. The goal of the digital mapping program is to establish a mapping database that links the graphic data with their geologic components. The data are produced and distributed by the Kentucky Geological Survey.
