- Description:
- Abstract:
- This GIS dataset comprises the structural measurement features of Map 180, Geology of the Precambrian Shield in northeastern Alberta, NTS 74M and NTS 74L, published by the Alberta Geological Survey. The measurements are of general foliation and gneissosity in the bedrock. The data are created in ArcInfo and output for public distribution in shapefile format.
- Purpose: For query and analysis of the geology of northeastern Alberta in GIS format.
- Supplemental Information: This metadata record was generated based on the ArcInfo coverage version of the data. In English.

- Process Step:
- Process Description:
- AGS provided to GISmo Solutions Ltd. a scanned, roughly georeferenced (NAD83, zone 12) TIFF image of Map 180. This image was further rubber sheeted using an analytical method derived by GISmo, using between 100 and 250 control points (depending on the quality of the image), to correspond to IRS imagery (also provided by AGS).
- Process Date: 2005
- Process Step:
- Process Description:
- Geological features were captured using on screen digitizing, at a scale of 1:6000, into a geodatabase feature data class. The feature data class was then exported to ArcInfo coverage format.
