This publication provides digital flight line data for a high-resolution magnetic survey over an area of northwest Arkansas. The airborne geophysical survey was jointly funded by the USGS National Cooperative Geologic Mapping Program and the Earth Mapping Resource Initiative and was designed to meet the complimentary needs related to geologic mapping and mineral resource research. The survey covers an irregular area 225 by 110 kilometers over the transition between the Ouachita and Ozarks Plateau physiographic provinces and includes 67,614 line-kilometers of magnetic data. Data were collected from a fixed-wing aircraft flown at mean terrain clearance of 167 meters above topography along N-S flight lines spaced at 200 meter intervals. Tie lines were flown in an E-W direction every 3000 meters. Data were collected by EON Geosciences under contract with the USGS using a fixed wing aircraft with a magnetometer mounted in the tail stinger. The survey operated out of the Branson, Missouri airport from October of 2019 to March of 2020. Files that are available in this child item include flight line data for the magnetic survey.

This publication provides digital flight line data for a high-resolution magnetic and radiometric survey over part of central Arkansas and southern Missouri. The airborne geophysical survey was funded by the Earth Mapping Resources Initiative and was designed to meet the complimentary needs related to geologic mapping and mineral resource research. The survey covers an irregularly shaped area of approximately 75,070 square kilometers (km^2) from southern Missouri, across part of the Arkoma basin and Ouachita Mountains into central Arkansas and includes 282,029 line-km of magnetic and radiometric data. Data were collected from fixed-wing aircraft flown at a median terrain clearance of 115 meters (m) above topography along north-south flight lines spaced at 300-m intervals. Tie lines were flown in an east-west direction every 3,000 m. Data were collected by EON Geosciences Inc. under contract with the USGS using five fixed-wing aircraft with a magnetometer mounted in the tail stinger and a fully calibrated gamma-ray spectrometer. The survey operated out of the Branson Airport in Missouri, the West Memphis Municipal Airport in Tennessee, and the North Little Rock Municipal and Texarkana Regional Airports in Arkansas from November of 2022 to May of 2023. Files that are available in this publication include flight line data for the magnetic survey, flight line data for the radiometric survey and a report describing the survey parameters, field operations, quality control and data reduction procedures. A zip file is provided that contains the contractor's deliverable products that includes Geosoft databases and grids for this magnetic and radiometric survey and the report describing the survey and data reduction.

This data release contains digital radiometric flight line data for a high-resolution airborne magnetic and radiometric survey over southeastern Illinois, western Kentucky, and southern Indiana, 2019 (version 2.0, August 2025). Data and documentation for the original version, including associated airborne magnetic data, can be found at https://doi.org/10.5066/P9R05B0M. The airborne geophysical survey was funded by the Earth Mapping Resources Initiative and was designed to meet the complementary needs related to geologic mapping and mineral resource research. The survey covers a 91-kilometer x 128-kilometer area centered on the igneous complex around Hicks Dome in Hardin County, Illinois. Data were collected along east-west flight lines spaced 200 meters apart with north-south tie lines flown every 3,000 meters. A mean terrain clearance of 116 meters was maintained except where safety dictated a higher elevation. A total of 61,974-line kilometers of data were collected. Data for this survey were collected by EON Geosciences under contract with the USGS using a fixed wing aircraft with a magnetometer mounted in the tail stinger and a fully calibrated gamma ray spectrometer. The survey operated out of the Paducah, Kentucky airport from October of 2019 to December of 2019. This version (version 2.0, August 2025) of the radiometric data has been reprocessed from the original dataset by New Resolution Geophysics (NRG) in 2024 under contract by the USGS using noise-adjusted singular value decomposition (NASVD) spectral component analysis procedure for improving the signal-to-noise ratio of the radiometric data. This website includes the reprocessed radiometric data, with and without spectra, provided in ASCII (.csv) and NetCDF (.nc) files; GeoTIFF images showing the total count (K, U, Th), percent potassium (%K), equivalent uranium (eU), equivalent thorium (eTh), and ternary (%K, eU, eTh); and a report describing the survey parameters, field operations, quality control and data reduction procedures. A zip file is provided that contains the contractor's deliverable products including Geosoft databases and grids for this radiometric dataset and the report describing the survey and data reduction.
