|1|certain|Identity of a feature can be determined using relevant observations and scientific judgment; therefore, one can be reasonably confident in the credibility of this interpretation.|FGDC-STD-013-2006|GLO0003|||ROMPA|2022-08-29 15:21:39||
2|questionable|Identity of a feature cannot be determined using relevant observations and scientific judgment; therefore, one cannot be reasonably confident in the credibility of this interpretation. For example, IdentityConfidence = questionable is appropriate when a geologist reasons "I can see some kind of planar feature that separates map units in this outcrop, but I cannot be certain if it is a contact or a fault."|FGDC-STD-013-2006|GLO0004|||ROMPA|2022-08-29 15:21:39||
7|contact|A plane or irregular surface between two types or ages of rock; examples are faults, intrusive borders, bedding planes separating distinct strata, and unconformities.|AGI_2005|GLO0005|ACASSELL|2019-03-04 11:50:27|ROMPA|2022-08-29 15:21:39|Type|ContactsAndFaults

20|medium moraine|Conspicuous sharp-crested ridge that is narrower than about 200 m, but generally shows up on topographic maps; generally several tens of meters wide and a few meters to a few tens of meters high.|Dane_Pleistocene_Clayton_Attig_1997|GLO0009|ACASSELL|2019-03-04 11:50:29|ROMPA|2022-08-29 15:21:39|Type|GeologicLines
21|drumlin|A low, smoothly rounded, elongate oval hill, mound, or ridge of compact glacial till or, less commonly, other kinds of drift (sandy till, varved clay), built under the margin of ice and shaped by its flow, or carved out of an older moraine by readvancing ice; its longer axis is parallel to the direction of movement of the ice. It usually has a blunt nose pointing in the direction from which the ice approached, and a gentler slope tapering in the other direction.|AGI_2005|GLO0010|ACASSELL|2019-03-04 11:50:29|ROMPA|2022-08-29 15:21:39|Type|GeologicLines
25|esker|A long, narrow, sinuous, steep-sided ridge composed of irregularly stratified sand and gravel that was deposited by a subglacial or englacial stream flowing between ice walls or in an ice tunnel of a stagnant or retreating glacier.|AGI_2005|GLO0011|ACASSELL|2019-03-04 11:50:29|ROMPA|2022-08-29 15:21:39|Type|GeologicLines
31|ice-wedge polygon|A large, nonsorted polygon characterized by borders of intersecting ice wedges, found only in permafrost regions and formed by contraction of frozen ground. The fissured borders delineating the polygon may be ridges (low-centered polygon in which sediments are being upturned) or shallow troughs (high-centered polygon in which erosion and thawing are prevalent), and are underlain by ice wedges. Diameter: up to 150 m, averaging 10-40 m. In plan, the pattern tends to be three- to six-sided.|AGI_2005|GLO0012|ACASSELL|2019-03-04 11:50:29|ROMPA|2022-10-10 11:42:07|Type|GeologicPoints

38|delta foreset face|Foreset bed: One of the inclined, internal, and systematically arranged layers of a cross-bedded unit; specif. one of the gently inclined layers of sandy material deposited upon or along an advancing and relatively steep frontal slope, such as the outer margin of a delta or the lee side of a dune, and progressively covering bottomset bed and in turn being covered or truncated by the topset bed. Foreset beds represent the greater part of the deposits of a delta.|AGI_2005|GLO0015|ROMPA|2022-08-23 13:02:29|ROMPA|2022-08-29 15:21:39||

41|Medium|The selected term in the GeoMaterial field (and its definition) generally characterizes the overall lithologic nature of rocks and (or) sediments in the map unit, but one or more significant but minor lithologies are not adequately described by the selected term.|AGI_2005|GLO0017|ROMPA|2022-08-23 13:02:29|ROMPA|2022-08-29 15:21:39||
42|striation|One of a series of long, delicate, finely cut, commonly straight and parallel furrows or lines inscribed on a bedrock surface by the rasping and rubbing of rock fragments embedded at the base of a moving glacier, and usually oriented in the direction of ice movement; also formed on the rock fragments transported by the ice.|AGI_2005|GLO0018|ROMPA|2022-08-23 13:28:45|ROMPA|2022-08-29 15:21:39||
43|paleoshoreline|A low, essentially continuous mound of beach or beach-and-dune material (sand, gravel, shingle) on the backshore of a beach beyond the present limit of storm waves or the reach of ordinary tides, and occuring singly or as one of a series of approximately parallel deposits. The ridges are roughly parallel to the shoreline and represent successive positions of an advancing shoreline.|AGI_2005|GLO0019|ROMPA|2022-08-23 13:28:45|ROMPA|2022-08-29 15:21:39||
44|drumlin; eroded, draped, or buried|Drumlin which has been eroded or where draped or buried by younger sediment.  See also 'drumlin'.|Jefferson_Quaternary_Ives_Rawling_2022|GLO0020|ROMPA|2022-08-23 13:28:45|ROMPA|2022-10-11 11:28:49||
