The digital data for each quadrangle is available as a .zip file containing:
Shapefiles of the map data that were exported from the file or personal geodatabase.
Either a style file specific to each map to aid in symbolizing, or for HSDM maps created in ArcView 3x, a legend (.avl) file for symbolizing.
FGDC_GSC style file for symbolizing bedrock maps created between 2013 and 2019 in the NCGMP09 Standard format, and after 2019 in the GeMS Standard format.
Excel file with explanation of abbreviations, for surficial maps.
The exceptions to 2 and 3 above are some earlier HSDM surficial maps that do not have a file to symbolize on. All surficial maps do however have an explanation of abbreviations included in the zip file, and a Code Key in the metadata Description for explanation of surficial units.
Note: The shapefile package does not contain annotation layers due to limitations of the software.
Metadata specific to each file:
Under Resource Details, the Field used to symbolize each shapefile is noted here.
A Code Key for surficial map codes is given in the Description.
