Introduction

Geologic data from the geologic map of the Rosalia 1:100,000-scale quadrangle

compiled by Waggoner (1990) were entered into a geographic information system (GIS)

as part of a larger effort to create regional digital geology for the Pacific Northwest. The

intent was to provide a digital geospatial database for a previously published black-andwhite paper geologic map. This database can be queried in many ways to produce a

variety of geologic maps. Digital base map data files are not included: they may be

obtained from a variety of commercial and government sources. This database is not

meant to be used or displayed at any scale larger than 1:100,000 (e.g., 1:62,500 or

1:24,000).

The map area is located in eastern Washington and extends across the state border into

western Idaho (Fig. 1). This open-file report describes the methods used to convert the

geologic map data into a digital format, documents the file structures, and explains how to

download the digital files from the U.S. Geological Survey public access World Wide Web

site on the Internet.

We wish to thank J. Eric Schuster of the Washington Division of Geology and Earth

Resources for providing the original stable-base mylar and the funding for it to be

scanned. We also thank Dick Blank and Barry Moring of the U.S. Geological Survey for

reviewing the manuscript and digital files, respectively.

Data Sources, Processing, and Accuracy

Plate 1 from Waggoner (1990) was the sole source of geologic data used to create the

digital map. The original stable-base mylar of the geologic linework for the 1:100,000-

scale geologic map (Waggoner, 1990, pl. 1) was electronically scanned to create a raster

digital image. The resulting TIFF-format image (600 dot per inch resolution) was

registered to a UTM grid and rectified in Arc/Info. The rectified raster image was then

converted to a vector GIS layer using the GRIDLINE vectorization tool included in the

Arc/Info GRID extension. Subsequent clean-up of the vector layer was done in PC

Arc/Info. Linework for water bodies that obscured geologic contacts was converted from

digital line graph (DLG) format files (U.S. Geological Survey, 1993) to PC Arc/Info so as

to delineate discrete geologic unit boundaries. The resulting geologic map was attributed,

converted to Arc/Info, and then plotted and compared to the original mylar to check for

digitizing and attributing errors.

Point data (strike and dip of beds, etc.) were digitized from the original mylar into

GSMAP, ver. 9 (Selner and Taylor, 1993) as points in a UTM, zone 11 map projection.

These data were output to Arc/Info GENERATE-format files using the GSMGIS utility

(G.I. Selner, written commun., 1994). An Arc/Info point location map was then

generated, attributed and annotated.

The overall accuracy (with respect to the location of lines and points) of the digital

geologic map (Figs. 2 and 3) is probably no better than +/- 70 meters. This digital

database is not meant to be used or displayed at any scale larger than 1:100,000 (e.g.,

1:62,500 or 1:24,000).

ATTRIBUTE DESCRIPTION

pttype character 15 Type of point symbol, e.g., strike and dip of inclined

bedding, strike and dip of inclined cleavage,

geochemical sample location.

strike integer 3 Strike of bedding, metamorphic foliation or cleavage;

or geochemical sample number.

Strike is an azimuthal angle (measured in degrees

from 0 to 360 in a clockwise direction from North).

Sample number refers to a rock sample used for

geochemical analysis.

dip integer 3 Dip of bedding, metamorphic foliation or cleavage.

This value is an angle measured (in degrees from 0 to

90) down from the horizontal; thus a horizontal dip

is 0 degrees and a vertical dip is 90 degrees.

calcang integer 3 An interim value used to calculate sym$angle. It

turned out that the various structural map symbols

in the ALCGEOL.MRK markerset had to be rotated

by different amounts to achieve their proper map

orientation.

For the strike and dip symbols, calcang = strike -

270; for the lineation symbol, calcang = strike - 180

(however, lineation symbols were not used in this

quadrangle map).

sym$angle integer 3 The angle used to complete the mathematical

rotatation of the structural map symbol to its proper

orientation on the map. This value is the $angle

pseudoitem value for the point.

For all of the map symbols, sym$angle = 0 - calcang.

source integer 4 Numeric code used to identify the data source for the

geologic map symbol. Complete references for the

sources are listed in the ROSPNT.REF file.

Obtaining Digital Data

The complete digital version of the geologic map is available in Arc/Info EXPORT

format with associated data files. These data and map images are maintained in a

Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) map projection:

Projection: UTM

Zone: 11

Y-offset (false northing): -5,000,000 meters

Units: meters

To obtain copies of the digital data, do one of the following:

1. Download the digital files from the USGS public access World Wide Web site on the

Internet: URL = http://wrgis.wr.usgs.gov/open-file/of98-357/

or

2. Anonymous FTP from wrgis.wr.usgs.gov, in the directory

pub/open-file/of98-357/

The Internet sites contain the digital geologic map of the Rosalia 1:100,000 quadrangle

both in Arc/Info EXPORT-format files (ros100k.e00 and rospnt.e00) and as an HPGL2

plot file (ros100k.hp), as well as the associated data files and Arc/Info macro programs

which are used to plot the map at a scale of 1:100,000.

To manipulate this data in a geographic information system (GIS), you must have a

GIS that is capable of reading Arc/Info EXPORT-format files.

Obtaining Paper Maps

Paper copies of the digital geologic map are not available from the USGS. However,

with access to the Internet and access to a large-format color plotter that can interpret

HPGL2 (Hewlett-Packard Graphics Language), a 1:100,000-scale paper copy of the map

can be made, as follows:

1. Download the digital version of the complete map, ros100k.hp, from the USGS public

access World Wide Web site on the Internet using the

URL = http://wrgis.wr.usgs.gov/open-file/of98-357/

or

2. Anonymous FTP the plot file, ros100k.hp, from: wrgis.wr.usgs.gov, in the

directory:

pub/open-file/of98-357/

3. This file can be plotted by any large-format color plotter that can interpret HPGL2.

The finished plot is about 29 inches by 39 inches.

Paper copies of the map can also be created by obtaining one of the versions of the

digital files as described above and then creating a plot file in a GIS.

 Description:

 Abstract:

 The geology of the Rosalia 1:100,000 quadrangle, Washington and Idaho

 was compiled and published as a paper product by the Washington

 Division of Geology and Earth Resources (Waggoner, 1990). The U.S.

 Geological Survey converted the geologic data to a digital geographic

 information system (GIS) format as part of a larger effort to create

 regional digital geology for the Pacific Northwest. The digital

 geologic map database can be queried in many ways to produce a variety

 of derivative geologic maps.

 Purpose:

 This dataset was developed to provide geologic map GIS of the

 Rosalia 1:100,000 quadrangle for use in future spatial analysis

 by a variety of users.

 This database is not meant to be used or displayed at any scale

 larger than 1:100,000 (e.g., 1:62,500 or 1:24,000).

 Supplemental_Information:

 This GIS consists of two major Arc/Info datasets: one line and

 polygon file (ros100k) containing geologic contacts and structures

 (lines) and geologic map rock units (polygons), and one point file

 (rospnt) containing structural data.

 Use_Constraints:

 This digital database is not meant to be used or displayed at

 any scale larger than 1:100,000 (e.g., 1:62,500 or 1:24,00).

 Any hardcopies utilizing these data sets shall clearly indicate

 their source. If the user has modified the data in any way

 they are obligated to describe the types of modifications they

 have performed on the hardcopy map. User specifically agrees

 not to misrepresent these data sets, nor to imply that changes they

 made were approved by the U.S. Geological Survey.

 Data_Set_Credit:

 Stephanie Z. Waggoner (1990) compiled the geology onto

 stable-base material;

 A contractor (PacifiCad Inc., Spokane, WA) scanned the

 original stable-base geologic map (provided by the

 Washington Division of Geology and Earth Resources) and

 provided the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) with an

 uncompressed TIFF file (reverse image, scanned at 600

 dots per inch);

 Bruce R. Johnson (USGS) converted the image to a vector

 geographic information system (GIS);

 Pamela D. Derkey (USGS) and Beatrice B. Lackaff edited

 the vector data;

 Pamela D. Derkey generated a GIS file for the point data,

 attached and attributed an interim geologic map data

 model (database).

 Robert E. Derkey (WA DGER) digitized the point data and

 provided it in an Arc/Info GENERATE format file.

Data_Quality_Information:

 Attribute_Accuracy:

 Attribute_Accuracy_Report:

 Attribute accuracy was verified by manual comparison

 of the source with hard copy printouts and plots.

 Logical_Consistency_Report:

 Polygon and chain-node topology present.

 Polygons intersecting the neatline are closed along the border.

 Segments making up the outer and inner boundaries of a poygon

 tie end-to-end to completely enclose the area. Line segments are

 a set of sequentially numbered coordinate pairs. No duplicate

 features exist nor duplicate points in a data string. Intersecting

 lines are separated into individual line segments at the point of

 intersection. Point data are represented by two sets of coordinate

 pairs, each with the same coordinate values. All nodes are

 represented by a single coordinate pair which indicates the beginning

 or end of a line segment. The neatline was generated by

 mathematically generating the four sides of the quadrangle,

 densifying the lines of latitude and projecting the file to UTM

 zone 11 (with a y-shift).

 Completeness_Report:

 This digital dataset was produced from a previously

 published report (Waggoner, 1990), and is considered

 to be the best geologic map available for the area

 at a scale of 1:100,000.

 Positional_Accuracy:

 Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:

 Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:

 The horizontal positional accuracy for the digital data may be no

 better than +/- 70 meters. It was tested by visual comparison of

 the source with hard copy plots.

 Process_Step:

 Process_Description:

 Stable-base geologic map was scanned at 600 dots per inch

 by a contractor (PacifiCad, Inc., Spokane, WA) and provided

 to the U.S. Geological Survey as reverse TIFF-format image.

 The image was registered to a UTM grid and rectified in

 Arc/Info. Then it was converted to a vector GIS layer using

 the GRIDLINE vectorization tool included in the Arc/Info GRID

 extension. Subsequent clean-up of the vector layer was done in

 PC Arc/Info. Linework for water bodies that obscured geologic

 contacts was converted from digital line graph (DLG) format

 files (USGS, 1993) to PC Arc/Info so as to delineate discrete

 geologic unit boundaries. The resulting geologic map was

 attributed, converted to Arc/Info, and then plotted and

 compared to the original.

 Point data were digitized from the original stable-base map

 into GSMAP, ver. 9 (Selner and Taylor, 1993) as points in a UTM

 zone 11 map projection (with a y-shift of -5,000,000 meters).

 These point data ewre output to Arc/Info GENERATE-format

 files using the GSMGIS utility (G.I. Selner, written commun.,

 1994). An Arc/Info point location map was then generated,

 attributed and annotated.
