Description:
Abstract:
This metadata file describes a compilation of digital data depicting the drift thickness of the 7.5-minute Villa Grove Quadrangle in Illinois. The compilation is in the form of a downloadable zip file including the following information:

(1) vector spatial data layers in ArcView data format for drift thickness polygons and contours;

(2) JPEG browse images from the final published map, and

(3) metadata in FGDC compliant format for all spatial layers.

The vector data include maximum and minimum thicknesses of drift polygons, contour thickness values and a line-type indicator.

Vector data are in the geographic coordinate system, decimal degrees, NAD83.

For a detailed list of the files included in the data product, see the Supplemental_Information section.

The data were published in 1999 on an ISGS Illinois Geologic Quadrangle entitled Drift Thickness Map, Villa Grove Quadrangle, Douglas County, Illinois by C. Pius Weibel and Curtis C. Abert. The data in this compilation do not include all the information on the published map. Refer to the published map for a complete explanation of the Drift Thickness of the Villa Grove Quadrangle.

The nominal scale is 1:24,000.

Purpose:
This data compilation is intended to provide a regional overview of the extent of Drift Thickness units in the Villa Grove Quadrangle. The data are appropriate regional thematic analysis. The data are not appropriate as a geodetic or engineering base, nor do they replace the need for detailed site-specific studies.
