The Digital Geologic Map of New Mexico in ARC/INFO Format
by Gregory N. Green and Glenn E. Jones
This geologic map was prepared as part of a study of digital methods and
</abstract>
techniques as applied to complex geologic maps.  The geologic map was
digitized in GSMAP version 8 (Selner and Taylor, 1992) at Socorro, New Mexico
by Orin Anderson and Glen Jones and published as the Geologic Map of New
Mexico 1:500,000 (Anderson and Jones, 1994) in GSMAP format.  The vector line
work and polygon point labels were converted to ARC/INFO format on a DOS
based PC with GSMARC (Green and Selner,1988).  These data were transferred
to a Data General UNIX system and  loaded into ARC/INFO. Each vector and
polygon was given attributes derived from the original 1994 GSMAP geologic
map.  Both digital versions are at 1:500,000 scale using the Lambert Conformal
Conic map projection parameters of the State base map.

</purpose>
Limitations_of_Data:
Scale is 1:500,000 and should not be used outside that range

In order to use this database, ARC/INFO software and hardware and FTP
transfer software to copy the database to the ARC/INFO platform are required.
Published geologic maps are prepared using a USGS topographic base map
that contains the hydrology, hypsography, and political features.  Because
this digital version of the Geologic Map of New Mexico started as a geologic
map, these features were not present.  Only those water bodies that were
required to close polygons were added. The digital hydrology is not complete
or as accurate as the original USGS 1:500,000 topographic base.  A few water
bodies were added for visual effect.  No roads, contours, or towns were
present on the GSMAP version of the geologic map and none were added to
this ARC/INFO version.

Procedures_Used:
This geologic map was prepared as part of a study of digital methods and
techniques as applied to complex geologic maps.  The geologic map was
digitized in GSMAP version 8 (Selner and Taylor, 1992) at Socorro, New Mexico
by Orin Anderson and Glen Jones and published as the Geologic Map of New
Mexico 1:500,000 (Anderson and Jones, 1994) in GSMAP format.  The vector line
work and polygon point labels were converted to ARC/INFO format on a DOS
based PC with GSMARC (Green and Selner,1988).  These data were transferred
to a Data General UNIX system and  loaded into ARC/INFO. Each vector and
polygon was given attributes derived from the original 1994 GSMAP geologic
map.  Both digital versions are at 1:500,000 scale using the Lambert Conformal
Conic map projection parameters of the State base map.

This database was developed on a Data General computer system using
DG/UX Release 5.4R3.10 UNIX and ARC/INFO 7.0.3 software.  The lineset and
shadeset files are coded for a HP 650C plotter.
