This map was published by the USGS and has been scanned, digitized, and attributed by DGGS staff. The dataset contains geologic, structural, stratigraphic, and geochronologic data organized according to the GeMS and AK GeMS mapping schemas. The geodatabase and ESRI fonts and style files are available from the DGGS website: https://dggs.alaska.gov/pubs/id/10827.The work is intended to facilitate multi-map merging of adjacent work by USGS and DGGS staff.This geodatabase is organized according to the Geologic Map Schema (GeMS) standard published as Techniques and Methods 11-B10 by the USGS. The conversion was performed within the framework and mechanisms of the Alaska Geologic Mapping System's AK GeMS mapping schema Hendricks, M.D., Ekberg, P.G., Athey, J.E., Wyatt, W.C., Willingham, A.L., and Naibert, T.J., 2021, AK GeMS data dictionary: A description of the Alaska geologic mapping schema: Alaska Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys Miscellaneous Publication 170, 10 p. https://doi.org/10.14509/30669.

Geologic map conversion to the GeMS standard was funded by the USGS National Cooperative Geologic Mapping Program under StateMap award number G21AC10706, 2021, and the State of Alaska General Fund. The views and conclusions contained in this document are those of the authors and should not be interpreted as necessarily representing the official policies, either expressed or implied, of the U.S. Government.Attribute fields within each feature class are populated using the map symbology and corresponding applicable values from the GeMS and AK GeMS specifications. When known, certainty in attribute interpretation is indicated in the relevant fields. Attribute accuracy varies throughout the map and is scale-dependent.All polygon features were topologically validated according to the AK GeMS geologic mapping schema specifications.This work is complete. We encourage users to review the original USGS release for a print-formatted map and documentation of the original work.This data release provides legacy geologic mapping converted to the GeMS and AK GeMS specifications. The data compilers used map symbology to determine positional accuracy. The data pairs descriptive fields within each feature class with location confidence lookup tables to record the originating authors' degree of confidence in the location of features. When location accuracy values are unavailable, users must infer positional accuracy based on standard geologic mapping practices of the investigation era. Certainty in feature boundaries or location varies throughout the map.Ekberg, P.G.Hendricks, M.D.Athey, J.E.2021AK GeMS symbology: A description of the AK GeMS style fileMiscellaneous PublicationMP 169Fairbanks, Alaska, United StatesAlaska Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys7 phttps://doi.org/10.14509/30584paper2021publication dateEkberg, P.G. and others, 2021GIS analysis and digital cartographyHendricks, M.D.Ekberg, P.G.Athey, J.E.Wyatt, W.C.Willingham, A.L.Naibert, T.J.2021AK GeMS data dictionary: A description of the Alaska geologic mapping schemaMiscellaneous PublicationMP 170Fairbanks, Alaska, United StatesAlaska Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys10 phttps://doi.org/10.14509/30669paper2021publication dateHendricks, M.D. and others, 2021GIS analysis and digital cartographyU.S. Geological Survey National Cooperative Geologic Mapping Program2020GeMS (Geologic Map Schema) - A standard format for the digital publication of geologic mapsTechniques and MethodsTM 11-B10United StatesU.S. Geological Survey1 phttps://dggs.alaska.gov/pubs/id/30585paper2020publication dateU.S. Geological Survey National Cooperative Geologic Mapping Program, 2020GIS analysis and digital cartographyGIS analysis and digital cartography - This data distribution package's geologic and geographic features were organized and attributed according to the AK GeMS geologic mapping schema.
