- Presentation Form vector digital data
- Abstract The geologic map was created in GSMAP at Socorro, New Mexico by Orin Anderson and Glen Jones and published as the Geologic
Map of New Mexico 1:500,000 in GSMAP format in 1994. This graphic file was converted to ARC/INFO format by Greb Green and
GlenJones and released as the Geologic Map of New Mexico in ARC/INFO format in 1997. This shapefile only shows the volcanic
vents for New Mexico, that are used on the Digital Geologic Map for New Mexico.
- Purpose This dataset was developed to provide geologic map GIS database of New Mexico for use in future spatial analysis by a variety
of users. This database is not meant to be used or displayed at any scale other than 1:500,000.
- Supplemental Information This data base consists of three major Arc/Info GIS datasets: one the geologic map with faults, formations and volcanic vents,
two the index and correlation chart and three the sources of geologic data.

- Source Citation Abbreviation Anderson and Jones (1994)
- Source Contribution Orin Anderson created the state scale geologic map of New Mexico. Orin Anderson and Glen Jones created a digital New Mexico
graphic in 1994. Greg Green and Glen Jones converted this to ARC/INFO in 1997.
- Process Step
-
- Process Description This geologic map was prepared as part of a study of digital methods and techniques as applied to complex geologic maps. The
geologic map was digitized in GSMAP at Socorro, New Mexico by Orin Anderson and Glen Jones and published as the Geologic Map
of New Mexico 1:500,000 (Anderson and Jones, 1994) in GSMAP format. The vector line work and polygon point labels were converted
to ARC/INFO format on a DOS based PC with GSMARC (Green and Selner,1988). These data were transferred to a Data General UNIX
system and loaded into ARC/INFO. Each vector and polygon was given attributes derived from the original 1994 GSMAP geologic
map. Both digital versions are at 1:500,000 scale using the Lambert Conformal Conic map projection parameters of the State
base map. Processes for preparing the map occurred from 1994 to 1997.
