Resource Abstract:
- description: The Unpublished Digital Geologic-GIS Map of the Ruin Point Quadrangle, Utah and Colorado is composed of GIS data
layers and GIS tables in a 10.1 file geodatabase (rupo_geology.gdb), a 10.1 ArcMap (.MXD) map document (rupo_geology.mxd),
individual 10.1 layer (.LYR) files for each GIS data layer, an ancillary map information (.PDF) document (hove_geology.pdf)
which contains source map unit descriptions, as well as other source map text, figures and tables, metadata in FGDC text (.TXT)
and FAQ (.HTML) formats, and a GIS readme file (rupo_gis_readme.pdf). Please read the rupo_gis_readme.pdf for information
pertaining to the proper extraction of the file geodatabase and other map files. To request GIS data in ESRI 10.1 shapefile
format contact Stephanie OMeara (stephanie.omeara@colostate.edu; see contact information below). Presently, a GRI Google Earth
KMZ/KML product doesn't exist for this map. The data were completed as a component of the Geologic Resources Inventory
(GRI) program, a National Park Service (NPS) Inventory and Monitoring (I&M) Division funded program that is administered
by the NPS Geologic Resources Division (GRD). Source geologic maps and data used to complete this GRI digital dataset were
provided by the following: National Park Service Geologic Resources Inventory and U.S. Geological Survey. Detailed information
concerning the sources used and their contribution the GRI product are listed in the Source Citation section(s) of this metadata
record (rupo_metadata_faq.html; available at http://nrdata.nps.gov/geology/gri_data/gis/hove/rupo_metadata_faq.html). Users
of this data are cautioned about the locational accuracy of features within this dataset. Based on the source map scale of
1:24,000 and United States National Map Accuracy Standards features are within (horizontally) 12.2 meters or 40 feet (127
meters or 416.7 feet for structure contour lines and uranium prospects) of their actual location as presented by this dataset.
Users of this data should thus not assume the location of features is exactly where they are portrayed in ArcGIS or other
software used to display this dataset. All GIS and ancillary tables were produced as per the NPS GRI Geology-GIS Geodatabase
Data Model v. 2.3. (available at: http://science.nature.nps.gov/im/inventory/geology/GeologyGISDataModel.cfm). The GIS data
projection is NAD83, UTM Zone 12N. The data is within the area of interest of Hovenweep National Monument.; abstract: The
