The original 'Summary Distribution of Slides and Earth Flows in the San Francisco Bay Region, California' database was developed by U.S. Geological Survey. Rr_of97_744.shp was created by Circuit Rider Productions, Inc. Polygon features from the original source data were selected based on their spatial location within the Russian River watershed basin. This metadata file incorporates information that is specific to this layer as well as information that is available in the original metadata file (of97-744.txt), which is a report titled GENERAL DISTRIBUTION OF GEOLOGIC MATERIALS IN THE SAN FRANCISCO BAY REGION, CALIFORNIA: A DIGITAL MAP DATABASEcompiled by Carl M. Wentworth based on the work ofE.E. Brabb (1989), S.E. Ellen and C.M. Wentworth (1995), and E.J. Helley and K.R. Lajoie (1979) " . The portions of this metadata file that borrow text from of97-744.txt are indicated in quotation marks.

Description:

Abstract: "This digital map database, which is compiled from 1970's sources, describes the general distribution and identity of geologic materials in the San Francisco Bay region, California.... Although based on the units distinguished on geologic maps, it is not itself a geologic map because it does not address geologic structure or the stratigraphic organization of the map units in a systematic way...The materials database delineates map units that differ in physical properties, although the differences between many of the units may be small,
depending on the properties of interest for any particular application. The materials units are categorized in the database by general age and lithology, by the geologic units that they represent, and by the map labels used in the compilation sources, which permit direct correlation with the unit descriptions of those sources."

Purpose: The intended use of this layer is to support watershed analysis and planning.

 

 

Supplemental Information: "The map scales of the sources limit the spatial resolution (scale) of the materials database to 1:125,000 or smaller. The database is thus useful for regional considerations that involve geologic materials, but does not replace the more detailed and up-to-date information required for evaluation of local areas."
