Digital Geologic Map of the Buffalo Eddy Unit and Vicinity, Nez Perce National Historical Park, Idaho and Washington (NPS, GRD, GRI, NEPE, BUED digital map)

The Digital Geologic Map of the Buffalo Eddy Unit and Vicinity, Nez Perce National Historical Park, Idaho and Washington is composed of GIS data layers complete with ArcMap 9.3 layer (.LYR) files, two ancillary GIS tables, a map help document in PDF format with ancillary map text, figures and tables, a FGDC metadata record and a 9.3 ArcMap (.MXD) Document that displays the digital map in 9.3 ArcGIS. The data were completed as a component of the Geologic Resources Inventory (GRI) program, a National Park Service (NPS) Inventory and Monitoring (I&M) funded program that is administered by the NPS Geologic Resources Division (GRD). Source geologic maps and data used to complete this GRI digital dataset were provided by the following: Idaho Geological Survey and Washington Division of Geology and Earth Resources. Detailed information concerning the sources used and their contribution the GRI product are listed in the Source Citation sections(s) of this metadata record (bued_metadata.txt; available at http://nrdata.nps.gov/nepe/nrdata/geology/gis/bued_metadata.xml). All GIS and ancillary tables were produced as per the NPS GRI Geology-GIS Geodatabase Data Model v. 2.1. (available at: http://science.nature.nps.gov/im/inventory/geology/GeologyGISDataModel.cfm). The GIS data is available as a 9.3 personal geodatabase (bued_geology.mdb), and as shapefile (.SHP) and DBASEIV (.DBF) table files. The GIS data projection is NAD83, UTM Zone 11N. That data is within the area of interest of Nez Perce National Historical Park.
