This shapefile was derived and modified from a preexisting
published paper map: Gray, H. H., 1983. Map of Indiana
showing thickness of unconsolidated deposits. Miscellaneous
Map 37, Indiana Geological Survey.

- Description:
-
- Abstract:
-
UNCONSOL_TH_MM37_IN is a polygon shapefile showing thickness ranges
of unconsolidated deposits (everything above the bedrock)
in Indiana. The thickness ranges consist of 50-foot
increments (0 to 50, 50 to 100, etc.).
- Purpose:
-
UNCONSOL_TH_MM37_IN was created to provide a digital shapefile
showing thickness of unconsolidated sediments in Indiana,
as shown on a preexisting published paper map, (Gray, H.
H., 1983. Map of Indiana showing thickness of
unconsolidated deposits. Miscellaneous Map 37, Indiana
Geological Survey).

- Attribute_Accuracy_Report:
-
The following notes appear on the published map: "An
estimated 60,000 datum points were used in construction of
this map. Data include principally well records and
seismic-refraction test records on file at the Indiana Dept.
of Natural Resources, Division of Water and Division of
Geological Survey, supplemented by data from a variety of
other sources. Grant, Marion, and Vigo Counties are from
Geological Survey reports published or in preparation. Data
compilation by Particia G. Davis and Michele A. Wright.
Drafted by Roger L. Purcell."
Thickness values assigned to
the digital shapefile are based on the published map. Values
of attributes were visually inspected and compared with
values appearing on the published source map.
- Logical_Consistency_Report:
-
ArcInfo polygon topology is present.
Checks for dangling nodes, sliver polygons etc. were performed by
IGS staff in ESRI ArcInfo (v 8.1).
- Completeness_Report:
-
The digital shapefile was derived without significant
modification from a preexisting published paper map and is
assumed to embody the same definitions and generalizations
as were used in the creation of the published paper map.
Note from the published map: "'unconsolidated deposits'
does not include artificial fill, strip-mined spoil, etc.
Intermediate contours are omitted in congested areas."
The
contours omitted on the published paper map have been added by interpolation
to the digital shapefile, by an IGS geologist.
- Positional_Accuracy:
-
- Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:
-
- Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:
-
No records exist regarding the horizontal positional
accuracy of this shapefile. The coordinates used in
georeferencing the shapefile were derived from the same
Mylar separate (1:500,000 scale) as the thickness polygons.
The following note appears on the published source map:
"Base modified from U.S. Geological Survey Base Map of
Indiana, 1973 edition."
During georeferencing, ArcInfo
reported an rms error of 117.16 meters.
- Vertical_Positional_Accuracy:
-
- Vertical_Positional_Accuracy_Report:
-
The vertical positional accuracy of the published paper source
map is unknown. Vertical positional accuracy was not a
factor in the digital production of UNCONSOL_TH_MM37_IN. No
quantitative tests were performed.

of the source Mylar separate.

-
- Process_Description:
-
The Mylar separate that had been used in the publication of
Indiana Geological Survey (IGS) Miscellaneous Map 37 was
acquired from the IGS Graphics and Cartography section. The
Mylar separate was then scanned by personnel of the IGS
using a black-and-white wide-bed scanner to a digital
raster image. This raster image was converted to an ESRI ArcInfo
grid using the command IMAGEGRID. The grid was then
vectorized in the ESRI ArcInfo ArcTools environment to produce a
coverage of lines representing the unconsolidated
thicknesses. This data was then georeferenced to UTM Zone
16, NAD 83. The lines were then appended to the IGS State
boundary base map (1:100,000 source scale). Dangling nodes
were then removed by extending "short" lines and deleting
"long" overhanging lines.
The resulting coverage was cleaned to build polygon
topology. The polygons were then attributed with a minimum
and maximum thickness value based on the data contained in
the paper source map (IGS Misc. Map 37).

This coverage was then clipped to
another coverage, INCLP83, containing the area within the 92 county boundaries for the state
of Indiana, which was compiled at a scale of 1:24,000. Since UNCONSOL_TH_MM37 and INCLP83 boundaries did not
coincide perfectly with one another, some polygons along the state boundary were either slightly
truncated or slightly extended to the new boundary. In every case, the modifications were minor.
The resulting coverage was converted to a shapefile named "UNCONSOL_TH_MM37_IN."
