Publication_Date: 2015 Title: Geospatial database: Compiled geologic mapping in the area of the proposed Susitna-Watana hydroelectric project, south-central Alaska Geospatial_Data_Presentation_Form: report and digital data Series_Information: Series_Name: Miscellaneous Publication Issue_Identification: MP 156 Publication_Information: Publication_Place: Fairbanks, Alaska, United States Publisher: Alaska Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys Other_Citation_Details: 3 p. Online_Linkage: http://dx.doi.org/10.14509/29446 Description: Abstract: In support of the proposed Susitna-Watana Hydroelectric Project, the Alaska Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys (DGGS) developed a Geographic Information System (GIS)-based geologic compilation of published and unpublished maps for twelve, inch-to-mile (1:63,360-scale) quadrangles encompassing the proposed hydroelectric project footprint, including the anticipated reservoir and surrounding area. DGGS geologists reviewed and analyzed existing geologic mapping for quality and completeness, and the maps were converted for use in GIS. The conversion process included scanning and georeferencing the original hard-copy map documents, creating a geodatabase, digitizing the geologic data, assigning attributes, and producing a digital data product for public release. The best available geologic mapping was synthesized into a single compilation data layer, and is packaged along with georeferenced scans and digitized vector files of the original geologic source maps. Bedrock geology was reviewed and revised by an independent contractor to ensure consistency with current geologic interpretations of the area. This geodatabase product will be a valuable reference resource for developers, planners, and scientists working on the hydroelectric project, as well as for any other projects in the area. Purpose: The Alaska Energy Authority (AEA) in 2010 was authorized by the State of Alaska to begin laying the groundwork to develop the Susitna-Watana Hydroelectric Project on the Susitna River, Alaska. The project was intended to help meet the future electrical needs of Alaska's Railbelt Region by providing clean, renewable energy at the lowest possible long-term cost. An accurate assessment of the site geology is important for dam location, design, and construction, as well as for other planning and land management decisions in the region. This geodatabase product will be a valuable reference resource for developers, planners, and scientists working on the hydroelectric project, as well as for any other projects in the area. Supplemental_Information: >border: A polygon shapefile that provides a generalized outline of the geographic area described by this report. >map-package: This publication's data is contained in a MAP PACKAGE (.mpk). The map package contains a compressed ESRI map document (.mxd), and the symbolized data files that are referenced by the layers of the .mxd file, and the fonts that are required to provide the appropriate symbology. The geodatabase used in this publication is NCGMP09 and FGDC compliant and as a result requires special fonts for correct geologic feature labeling. For more information http://ncgmp.usgs.gov. YOU MUST ENSURE THE FGDC FONTS ARE INSTALLED ON YOUR COMPUTER BEFORE UNPACKING THE MAP PACKAGE! The FGDC required fonts are included in this publication's zip file. To open and unpack the map package, navigate to the map package (.mpk) double click it or drag it into ArcGIS. The map package will unpack into ArcGIS's default package location and automatically open the map document.

Data_Quality_Information: Attribute_Accuracy: Attribute_Accuracy_Report: Certainty in identification of the map units varies due to the scale and interpretive nature of the mapping. Per NCGMP09 (USGS National Cooperative Geologic Mapping Program - Draft Standard Format for Digital Publication of Geologic Maps) specifications, the authors have assigned a confidence value to each map unit boundary and line segment to indicate their degree of confidence in the positioning and identification of the element at the mapped scale. This publication is a DGGS MISCELLANEOUS PUBLICATION. It provides a compilation of both previously published data as well as data compiled from unpublished, but publicly available, geotechnical reports. Bedrock geology was reviewed and revised by an independent contractor to ensure consistency with current geologic interpretations of the area. Interpretations or conclusions contained in this publication are subject to change if new data becomes available. Logical_Consistency_Report: Polygon topology was implemented per NCGMP09 specifications (polygons must not overlap, polygons must not have gaps, boundaries must be overlain by lines in ContactsAndFaults). All polygon features were topologically validated using ArcGIS for Desktop. Completeness_Report: This report and digital dataset provide information about geologic features that can be identified or interpreted at a scale of 1:63,360. DGGS geologists reviewed and analyzed existing geologic mapping for quality and completeness. The best available geologic mapping was synthesized into a single compilation data layer, and is packaged along with georeferenced scans and digitized vector files of the original geologic source maps. Bedrock geology was reviewed and revised by an independent contractor to ensure consistency with current geologic interpretations of the area. However, significant additional work would be required to fully resolve both uncertainties noted in the originating data sources or inconsistencies between various data sources. Positional_Accuracy: Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy: Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report: Authors compiled features from georeferenced scans and digitized vector files of the original geologic source maps. Per NCGMP09 specifications, the authors have assigned a confidence value to each polygon, line, or point to indicate their degree of confidence in the positioning and identification of the element at the mapped scale.
