Description
Digitized legacy maps of surficial geology and morphology of the central Arctic Coastal Plain, Alaska, Data Release, provides a digitized version of Rawlinson's 1993 surficial geologic map, covering the Flaxman Island and Beechy Point quadrangles, plus parts of Mount Michelson and Harrison Bay, at 1:63,360 scale (Rawlinson, 1993, https://doi.org/10.14509/2484). In 2024, USGS staff scanned, georeferenced, and projected the maps into GIS and corrected typographic and labeling errors with input from the author. DGGS staff subsequently converted these files into the GeMS geodatabase standard. The complete report, geodatabase, and ESRI fonts and style files are available from the DGGS website: https://dggs.alaska.gov/pubs/31429.
