GIS Data
GIS (Geographic Information System) is a computer system that allows the user to create specialized maps with a variety of spatial data which can include topographic features, geologic units, energy or mineral resources, and geologic hazards.
GIS data requires specialized software, which must be purchased or downloaded separately.
GIS geologic map data files are produced from published or open-filed geologic maps, and include geologic units, contacts, map symbols, and other map information. All data are projected to UTM, NAD27, Zone 12 North, in meters.
