    Description:
      Abstract:
        Aeromagnetic data were collected along flight lines by instruments in an
        aircraft that recorded magnetic-field values and locations.  This dataset
        presents latitude, longitude, altitude, and magnetic-field values.
      Purpose:
        Aeromagnetic surveys are used for geophysical prospecting.  Some
        variations in magnetic measurements are caused by rocks that
        contain significant amounts of magnetic minerals (magnetite being
        the most common).  These anomalies reflect variations in the
        amount and type of magnetic material and the shape and depth of
        the body of rock.
        Aeromagnetic anomaly maps are important tools in mapping
        surficial and buried igneous rocks.  The features and patterns
        of aeromagnetic anomalies can also be used to delineate details
        of subsurface geology including the locations of buried faults and
        the thickness of surficial sedimentary rocks.
      Supplemental_Information:
        The U.S. Geological Survey has contracted or flown numerous
        airborne surveys over a long period (1950's to present).  Not
        all flight-line data have been released to the public
        because of lack of personnel to reformat data and service the
        requests.  With the improvement in digital communication
        and the ability to store and transmit large data sets, the
        USGS is now able to release the flight-line data in a
        common format.

        A companion CD-ROM/web site has been released containing
        magnetic data that were generated by digitizing analog maps.
        Digital flight-line data used to create the analog maps are
        unavailable.  Reference is in the Cross-Reference section of
        this metadata file.

    Attribute_Accuracy:
      Attribute_Accuracy_Report:
        The data in this file have been processed using various formulas and
        methods that are not usually documented but that represent
        industry standard practices for airborne data reduction.  For example,
        position is listed as latitude and longitude, but these values
        were derived from the raw navigation data depending on the system used.
        (see notes under horizontal accuracy). Line numbers were added to
        records, and unusable data at flight-line ends were discarded
        (as aircraft slowed and turned around). Separate recordings were
        correlated by time and assigned to the correct location.

        The exact accuracies of these processing steps may not be known.
        They are discussed in the sections on attribute or positional
        accuracies.
    Logical_Consistency_Report:
      The data in this file were collected by a single contractor or group
      who were responsible for collecting and processing the data.

      The data from this survey were collected using the same instruments
      (magnetometers, altimeters, navigational systems) throughout
      the survey and were collected in a normal length of time with no long
      delays between survey beginning and end.

      Survey contracts specified the conditions and specifications under which
      these data were collected.  Standard industry practices of the time
      were followed in data collection and processing.
    Completeness_Report:
      Loss of data due to poor transmission, channel dropout, obvious spiking,
      missing channels, and other obvious errors were replaced with the
      value -9999.9.
    Positional_Accuracy:
      Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:
        Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:
          Flight Path Recovery

          Horizontal position of the survey aircraft used to collect
          data were determined by reconciling down-looking photographs
          (recorded on continuous-strip film) with topographic maps
          and orthophotoquadrangle maps.  Fiducial numbers and marks,
          impressed on any paper strips that were recording data or
          added to magnetic tape records, were included
          as a function of time to further reconcile location with
          instrumentation.
      Vertical_Positional_Accuracy:
        Vertical_Positional_Accuracy_Report:
          The aircraft vertical position was determined using the
          navigational positioning equipment on the aircraft, which
          were radar altimeter and barometric altimeter.

          Radar altimeters are estimated to have an error
          of 2-5% of the altitude (Richard Hansen, PRJ, Inc.,
          written communication).

          Barometric altimeters are quite accurate, but are
          typically operated in an uncorrected mode.  The
          diurnal variation in air pressure over the course of
          a flight can produce a 50-100 ft error in the
          barometric altimeter reading.  In addition, pressure microcells
          create short-period air pressure changes equivalent
          to about 10 ft under typical conditions (Richard
          Hansen, PRJ, Inc., written communication)

          The magnetometer was carried on a "stinger" that
          was attached to the aircraft.

          This data set was collected at a fixed barometric altitude
          of 3,500 ft.

      Process_Step:
        Process_Description:
          Conversion of measured values to geographic position and
          magnetic values was performed by the contractor using
          industry standard practices.

          Details are found under Attribute Accuracy Report,
          Horizontal_Position_Accuracy_Report, and
          Vertical_Position_Accuracy_Report

          Unless noted, conversion processes were not reported to the USGS.
          Unpublished products generated by the contractor included magnetic
          tapes, a map of residual or total field magnetics, and perhaps some
          written documentation.

        Process_Description:
          USGS reformatting of contractor data to standard format.

          USGS personnel used the software package Oasis Montaj version 4.3 by
          Geosoft, Inc., to read in the original contractor's data.
          Latitude, longitude, altitude, and magnetic values were
          checked for obvious errors or spikes and values of -9999.9
          were given where the value could not be reasonably corrected.
          Other errors in the data were not corrected.  Horizontal positions
          were converted to latitude and longitude if the original values
          were UTM meters.  Elevations were converted from meters to feet
          (1 m = 3.2808 ft).  Information was added that was missing from the
          data file but was recorded elsewhere.  The reformatted data file was
          written in the format described in the section on
          Entity_and_Attribute_Overview.

        Attribute_Definition:
          Raw magnetic value with base magnetometer corrections applied.

          Because the magnetic field of the earth varies diurnally,
          a stationary base magnetometer is maintained on the ground
          during airborne surveying.  The base magnetometer records
          changes in the magnetic field (in nanoTeslas) as a function
          of time.  The magnetic changes may have an amplitude of 20
          to 50 nanoTeslas.  If changes are more severe, as would
          occur from a magnetic storm, surveying is discontinued or
          the data recorded are not used.

          Diurnal variations are then removed from the airborne magnetic
          data based on the common time.

          Values of -9999.9 indicate missing data.

            Attribute_Units_of_Measure: nanoTeslas
        Attribute_Value_Accuracy_Information:
          Attribute_Value_Accuracy: 2
          Attribute_Value_Accuracy_Explanation:
            The airborne magnetometer is accurate to about 1 nanoTesla,
            and the base magnetometer has the same accuracy.  The accuracy
            of the base-corrected airborne value therefore is near 2 nanoTeslas
            or better.
        Attribute_Measurement_Frequency:
          The magnetometer has a recharging interval of 0.5
          seconds.  The data were recorded at 0.01 min intervals.
      Attribute:
        Attribute_Label: resmag
        Attribute_Definition:
          residual magnetic value

          The total magnetic value minus a geomagnetic reference field (GRF),
          which is a long-wavelength regional magnetic field determined by an
          international committee about every five years (e.g., 1965, 1970,
          1975, 1980, 1985).  The International GRF (IGRF) is commonly used.
          After adequate acceptance, a model becomes the Definitive GRF (DGRF),
          which is the preferred field to remove.

          For this survey, the field removed was the IGRF 1975 updated to the
          period of flying.

          Values of -9999.9 indicate missing data.

            The Geomagnetic Reference Field that was subtracted from
            the total magnetic value is based on a model, which was
            updated to the date of the survey.  New models are
            available at five year intervals.  These models have
            varying degrees of accuracy in determining the local
            reference field.
