Three-Dimensional Geologic Map of the San Andreas Fault Zone Between Gold Hill and Pinnacles National Park, California
공공데이터포털
A three-dimensional geologic map was created by assembling eight geologic cross sections derived from geologic mapping, potential field geophysics, and petroleum well logs. The central feature of the map is the San Andreas Fault, with many other prominent structural features depicted that express the regional transpressional tectonic setting. The subsurface interpretation was based on existing two-dimensional geologic mapping and modified by new geologic mapping by USGS geologists between 2005-2014. Existing gravitational anomaly and magnetic anomaly maps helped guide subsurface interpretations. The result is a three-dimensional model that depicts the geologic units, faults, and folds of the region in a model that can be viewed from any perspective and sliced in any direction. Once the map was assembled, kinematic modeling was conducted using the modeling software’s forward and reverse deformation algorithms. These exercises were in part experimental, to assess how well the software’s kinematic algorithms work in this setting. But these experiments have also yielded insights into the geologic history of the region. An experiment with fault motion algorithms revealed a possible mechanism for the creation of secondary faults. Retro-deforming a syncline was also performed to approximate the amount of contraction caused by compressional stress in the region.
Geospatial database of the geologic map and structure sections along the southern part of the Bartlett Springs Fault Zone and adjacent areas from Cache Creek to Lake Berryessa, northern Coast Ranges, California
공공데이터포털
This geologic map database consists of new geologic mapping, at a 1:24,000 scale, along the southern part of the Bartlett Springs Fault Zone in the northern Coast Ranges, California. The geologic map (published as Scientific Investigations Map 3514) covers an area of 258 square miles in Lake, Napa, Colusa, and Yolo Counties; work, which was undertaken between 2016 and 2021, was supported by the USGS National Cooperative Geologic Mapping Program. This geodatabase contains the most up-to-date and highest resolution mapping in the region. Results and observations reported here help elucidate the geologic deformational history of the area, as well as the relation between older and active structures. Please consult the accompanying pamphlet and the Description of Map Units (in the pamphlet) for a detailed presentation and interpretation of data and discussion of results. The report contains the pamphlet and two map sheets that include the geologic map, a Correlation of Map Units, four geologic-structure cross sections, six microseismicity cross sections, and a microseismicity fault map.
Seamless Integrated Geologic Map Database of the Intermountain West: Contributions to The National Geologic Map
공공데이터포털
This dataset is intended to provide seamless, integrated, surficial geologic mapping of the U.S. Intermountain West region and is supported by the National Cooperative Geologic Mapping Program of the U.S. Geological Survey. Surficial geology included as part of this data release as independent of bedrock geologic mapping and is compiled at a variable resolution from 1:50,000 to 1:250,000 scale. No original interpretations are presented in this dataset; rather, all interpretive data are assimilated from referenceable publications. Initial contributions to this data release are along an east-west transect that parallels 37-degrees north latitude extending from the Rio Grande Rift and Great Plains in the east to the Basin and Range and Sierra Nevada to the west. Other areas of the Intermountain West region will be incorporated over time. Data are presented as a downloadable file geodatabase (*.gdb) and as features services that can be directly ingested into GIS software for analysis. This dataset is intended to be versioned regularly as new geologic map data is integrated. The data structure follows the Seamless Integrated Geologic Mapping extension (SIGMa) (Turner and others, 2022) to the Geologic Map Schema (GeMS) (USGS, 2020).

Database for the geologic map of the central San Juan caldera cluster, southwestern Colorado
공공데이터포털
This geodatabase contains all the geologic map information for the Geologic Map of the San Juan caldera cluster, southwestern Colorado and is part of U.S. Geological Survey Geologic Investigations Map Series I-2799. The San Juan Mountains are the largest erosional remnant of a composite volcanic field that covered much of the southern Rocky Mountains in middle Tertiary time. The San Juan field consists mainly of intermediate-composition lavas and breccias, erupted about 35-30 Ma from scattered central volcanoes (Conejos Formation) and overlain by voluminous ash-flow sheets erupted from caldera sources. In the central San Juan Mountains, eruption of at least 8,800 km3 of dacitic-rhyolitic magma as nine major ash flow sheets (individually 150-5,000 km3) was accompanied by recurrent caldera subsidence between 28.3 Ma and about 26.5 Ma. Voluminous andesitic-dacitic lavas and breccias were erupted from central volcanoes prior to the ash-flow eruptions, and similar lava eruptions continued within and adjacent to the calderas during the period of more silicic explosive volcanism. Exposed calderas vary in size from 10 to 75 km in maximum dimension, the largest calderas being associated with the most voluminous eruptions.
