Description
This U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) data release provides a digital geospatial database for the geologic map of the Arlington quadrangle, Carbon County, Wyoming (Hyden and others, 1967). Attribute tables and geospatial features (points, lines, and polygons) conform to the Geologic Map Schema (USGS NCGMP, 2020) and represent the geologic map as published in USGS Geologic Map Quadrangle GQ-643. The 35,776-acre map area represents the geology at a publication scale of 1:24,000.
