  Description:
    Abstract: This dataset (WOFR2023-04-dataset02.zip) presents the GIS data for geologic map of the Fennimore and Mount Hope 7.5-minute quadrangles, Grant County, Wisconsin. It includes the map database (WI_FennimoreMtHopeGeology_1-1.gdb) in file geodatabase format and a folder (\Metadata) containg FGDC metadata in XML format for each of the geodatabase feature classes. Please reference the accompanying map and supplemental report for additional information.
    Purpose: The geologic map of the Fennimore and Mount Hope quadrangles includes 1:24,000-scale mapping of both surficial and bedrock geology. The mapping was initiated to support groundwater studies in the area. The map and accompanying report present the Paleozoic bedrock stratigraphy, including structures, as well as data from three new bedrock drill cores ranging in length from 100 to 263 feet.
    Supplemental_Information: WI_FennimoreMtHopeGeology_1-1.gdb is a composite geodataset that conforms to "GeMS (Geologic Map Schema)--a standard format for the digital publication of geologic maps", available at http://ngmdb.usgs.gov/Info/standards/GeMS/. Metadata records associated with each element within the geodataset contain more detailed descriptions of their purposes, constituent entities, and attributes. These metadata were prepared with the aid of script GeMS_FGDC1_Arc10.py, version of version of 8 May 2023.
