In the interests of standardization and interoperability, we are migrating our geologic maps into the USGS
NCGMP09 data model. However, our
well data model is still actively being used. Documentation for the NMBGMR geology data model is being provided for users with legacy data in this model. We also hope that it will provoke discussion in the ongoing effort to improve
NCGMP09 and other models.
Attributes used in the NMBGMR Geologic Data Model are a mixture of defined vocabularies in coded value domains, range domains, and user-entered terms. This page shows the Range domains used by the data model. These domains are used to ensure azimuth values like (dip direction) and angular values (like dip) are within 0-360 or 0-90 respectively.
