Usgs National Geologic Map Database Collection Catalog Download the pdf — "a standard format for the digital publication of geologic maps, usgs techniques and methods 11 b10" is the latest version of gems (see archive for older versions). This paper introduces a novel, semantics informed geologic mapping process, whose application domain is the production of a synthetic geologic map of a large administrative region.
National Geologic Map Database Question Treasurenet Although gems is designed for a single map database, it also is intended to provide a stepping stone toward the development of multiple map databases, in particular the national geologic map database. This report is a summary of progress on implementing the nadm c1 conceptual model (nadmsc, 2004) as a production scale prototype for a u.s. geological survey –association of american state geologists (aasg) national geologic map database (ngmdb, soller and berg, 2003). In the first and most fundamental phase of the project, we are building a set of easy to use reference databases; for example, a comprehensive, searchable map catalog of all geoscience maps in the united states, whether in paper or digital format. Here, we describe an object based model for geologic map information, specifically designed to represent digital geologic maps and related geoscientific information.

The ncgmp, as authorized by the national cooperative geologic mapping act of 1992 (public law 102 285, 106 stat. 166 and its reauthorizations), is tasked with expediting the production of a geologic database for the nation based on modern geologic maps and their supporting data. The ngmdb consists of a comprehensive set of publication citations, stratigraphic nomenclature, downloadable content in raster and vector formats, unpublished source information, and guidance on standards development. Under this authority, on behalf of federal agencies and the state geological surveys (aasg), the national geologic map database coordinates development of geologic map standards and guidelines. user support for the standard is provided by usgs. According to the geologic mapping act, the u.s. geological survey and the association of american state geologists (aasg) shall cooperatively build this national archive, according to technical and scientific standards whose development is coordinated by the ngmdb.
