This spatial data file consists of the sedimentary unit polygons for 22 of the 32 7.5-minute quadrangles on the Raleigh 1:100,000-scale sheet, North Carolina. These twenty-two quadrangles were mapped during the period 1995 - 2003 under the USGS's STATEMAP Geologic Mapping Program by the North Carolina Geological Survey (NCGS). This polygon digital dataset, compiled through new detailed geologic mapping, represents the general distribution of sediment types and surficial deposits for twenty-two (22) USGS 7.5-minute topographic quadrangles of the Raleigh 1:100,000-scale sheet,covering portions of Wake, Wayne, Wilson, Harnett, Johnston, Nash and Franklin Counties, North Carolina. This file contains original NCGS geologic mapping data generated by compiling detailed field observations and compiled drill hole data at a scale of 1:24,000, during the period September 1995 through June 2003. This polygon database delineates map units that are identified by general age and lithology through standard geologic mapping procedures. These data were mapped at a scale of 1:24,000 and are appropriate for use at this scale and smaller.

This digital data release contains spatial datasets of bedrock geology, volcanic ash bed locations, test hole locations, bedrock outcrops, and structure contours of the top of bedrock and the base of the Ogallala Group from a previously published map (Souders, 2000). The GeologicMap feature dataset contains separate feature classes for the Ogallala Group map unit (ContactsAndFaults and MapUnitPolys) and the underlying pre-Ogallala bedrock map units (ContactsAndFaults_Bedrock and MapUnitPolys_Bedrock). The VolcanicAshBedPoints feature class contains the locations of volcanic ash beds within the Ogallala Group. The contours depicting the elevation of the top of bedrock (top of Ogallala Group where present and top of pre-Ogallala bedrock where Ogallala is absent) are contained in the IsoValueLines_TopBedrock feature class. The contours depicting the elevation of the base of the Ogallala Group are contained in the IsoValueLines_BaseOgallala feature class. Contoured values are given in both feet and meters. Feature classes containing the location of test holes (TestHolePoints) and bedrock outcrops (OverlayPolys) that were used in generating the structure contour surfaces are included. Nonspatial tables define the data sources used, define terms used in the dataset, and describe the geologic units. A tabular data dictionary describes the entity and attribute information for all attributes of the geospatial data and the accompanying nonspatial tables. Surficial geologic units that are only represented as cross-sections on the original map publication, and the cross-sections themselves, are not included in this digital data release.

Digital data from VG2016-3 Springston, G., 2016, Surficial geology of the Cabot 7 1/2 minute quadrangle, Vermont:�Vermont Geological Survey Open File Report VG2016-3, text plus 9�plates, scale�24,000. Data may include surficial geologic contacts, isopach contours lines, bedrock outcrop polygons, bedrock geologic contacts, hydrogeologic units and more. The surficial geologic materials data at a scale of 1:24,000 depict types of unconsolidated surficial and glacial materials overlying bedrock in Vermont. Data is created by mapping on the ground using standard geologic pace and compass techniques and/or GPS on a USGS 1:24000 topographic base map. The materials data is selected from the Vermont Geological Survey Open File Report (OFR) publication (https://dec.vermont.gov/geological-survey/publication-gis/ofr). The OFR contains more complete descriptions of map units, cross-sections, isopach maps and other information that may not be included in this digital data set.
