Description:

Abstract:

This coverage includes arcs, polygons, and polygon labels that describe the generalized geologic age and type of surface outcrops of bedrock of the Far East (China, Japan, Mongolia, North and South Korea, and Taiwan; and parts of Cambodia, Laos, Thailand and Vietnam). It also includes shorelines and inland water bodies.

Purpose:

To delineate geologic contacts and thematically depict generalized geologic age of outcrops in Open File Report 97-470F Maps Showing Geology, Geologic Provinces, and Oil and Gas Fields of the Asia Pacific Region; Plate 1: The Far East, which is being compiled as a reference for the U.S. Geological Survey's World Energy Project assessment of undiscovered, technically recoverable oil and gas resources of the world. This coverage is used to produce a map and an Adobe Acrobat Portable Document of the. An Arcview shapefile derived from this coverage is used in Arcview projects.

Data_Quality_Information:

Attribute_Accuracy:

Attribute_Accuracy_Report:

All the attributes other than standard Arc/Info attributes are of character type.

1. Attribute item "GLG" (geology) is abstracted from fill colors and labels

on UNESCO source maps denoting geologic age of surficial outcrops. Rock units whose age is divided within a geologic period on the map are attributed unidivided. For instance, units labeled "Q", "Q1", "Q2", "Q3" and "Q1,2" and "Q2,3" are attributed as "Q". Units labeled as "PgN" are attributed as "T". Units colored as igneous rock of undetermined age are attributed as "und". Areas colored as surface water bodies and ocean are attributed as "H2O". Unmapped areas without color are attributed as "oth". Units denoted as uncertain with a question mark on the original maps are attributed without comment. Where there are disagreements on the original maps between the label and the fill color, or where printing errors occur, the preference is given to the label in attributing the unit. In some cases, a judgement is made according to the inferred geologic trend. Definitions for the values are found below in the entity and attribute information section.

2. Attribute item "TYPE" is abstracted from labels and fill patterns on the UNESCO source maps. Because the emphasis of this database is on oil and gas resources, igneous rocks are generalized. Acid, intermediate and basic volcanic rocks were attributed as volcanic. Acid, intermediate and basic intrusive igneous rocks are attributed as intrusive. Ophiolites and ultra basic rocks are attributed as a general class, ophiolites and ultrabasic. The UNESCO source map legends do not differentiate sedimentary from metamorphic rocks.

3. Attribute item "GEN_GLG" is calculated from the item "GLG". In those cases where the age of units span more than one geologic age the UNESCO practice of placing the older age before the more recent age is reversed to adhere to the USGS practice of placing the more recent age first. For instance, "KT" becomea "TK". Units whose age span more than one age are attributed by the era. For example, "CmD" becomes "Pz".

4. Standard verification of attribute reliability is performed with the Arc/Info command label errors to find polygons without assigned character value or with more than one value.

5. Plots are created of the coverage, colored by item "GEN_GLG" and labeled by item "GLG" at the same scale, projection and map extent of each of the UNESCO source maps for the purposes of review and examination. Review was conducted by persons uninvolved in the compilation. The entire set of maps was examined with a polygon to polygon search for errors.

6. The plots are also examined by the compiler by sampling 2 degree by 2 degree areas, yielding a deductive estimate of greater than 99 percent fidelity to UNESCO source maps of items "GLG" and "TYPE", and, by extension, "GEN_GLG".

 

 
 
 

Logical_Consistency_Report:

Polygon topology. Each polygon has one unique label point with unique id, there are no dangles. Polygons are bounded at perimeter of extent, including areas attributed as water and where geologic age is not shown. The coverage is topologically cleaned and built in Arc/Info 7.1.2.

Completeness_Report:

An informal threshold of 1500 meters of width or length is used in digitizing features from the source maps. This threshold is not uniformly applied. Geologic ages indicated on the source maps as uncertain or questionable are attributed without comment. Ages that are divided on the original maps are attributed as undivided. For example: two adjacent polygons of Lower and Middle Cretaceous age are digitized and attributed as one polygon of Cretaceous age. Some unusual age classifications are attributed in a more generalized or standard manner. For instance: Upper Permian through Tertiary is attributed as Cenozoic/Mesozoic, Carboniferous through Triassic is attributed as Mesozoic/Paleozoic, and Upper Triassic through Lower Cretaceous as Mesozoic. Acid, Intermediate and Basic igneous rocks are not differentiated and are attributed as either intrusive or extrusive igneous rocks. Areas indicated on the map as either Ultrabasic or Ophiolitic are classed together as Ultrabasic or Ophiolite.

Positional_Accuracy:

Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:

Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:

There are difficulties registering the scanned gray-scale images of the original UNESCO source maps. The latitude and longitude graticules do not match the stated map projection at the corners of the maps beyond the area mapped geologically. In particular, the upper left corner of map sheet 1, the extreme Northwest portion, and the upper right corner of map sheet 2, the extreme Northeast portion, have latitude and longitude graticules that deviate from a calculated graticule using the Arc/Info generate and project commands. Coastlines and inland water bodies abstracted from ESRI Arcworld 1:3m countries and rivers are used to rectify the images. Because international boundaries are not depicted on the UNESCO source maps, it is not possible to use borders to rectify the images. Although a relatively low RMS error is achieved in registering the images, there is little control in the Northwest portion of the coverage. The registration is inconsistent across the four map sheets used to compile this coverage. When the coverage is digitized there remain discrepencies with the ESRI sourced coverage. (ESRI Arcworld is chosen as a standard because it is widely accepted and available.) These discrepencies are in part the result of the registration problem, and in part caused by compilation differences between UNESCO and ESRI. Using a roving window, piecewise rubbersheeting is performed with the Arc/Info adjust command, polygon option. Identifiable features of inland water bodies and shorelines common to both sources are used as targets to create the "to - from" links for adjusting the coverage. Overlaying plots of this coverage, corresponding to the source maps in scale, projection and map extent, on a light table shows a variable offset ranging from 0 to 5 mm (25 km).

The following describe the tolerances:

1. Original geologic maps are presumed to be of 500 meter maximum accuracy (0.1mm at 5,000,000 scale)

2. Scanned gray-scale images are of 200 dot/inch resolution

(0.13 mm on paper map)

3. Scanned images were registered and rectified with an average RMS error of 641 meters. (0.1 mm on paper map)

4. Fuzzy tolerance was set at 500 meters (0.71 pixel)

and weed tolerance was set at 250 meters (0.31 pixel)

5. 100 points were sampled on the master coverage for fit with ESRI Arcworld country boundaries and an RMS error was calculated of 780 meters, the maximum error was 11,400 meters.

Used as a guide to match coastlines and inland water bodies, and to verify island locations

Process_Step:

Process_Description:

Original source maps are scanned as gray-scale tiff images with a resolution of 200 dpi. The gray-scale images are registered to a composite arc coverage of coastlines and interior waterbody outlines taken from ESRI Arcworld country boundary and hydrology coverages, with an average root mean square error of approximately 600 meters. The images are then rectified in Arc/Info.

Process_Date: 19980625

Process_Step:

Process_Description:

Arcs and labels are digitized on screen in Arcedit with a fuzzy tolerance of 500 meters and a weed tolerance of 250 meters, using the gray scale images as a background guide. Features less than 1000 meters in length or width are not captured. Features crossing the edges of original map sources are adjusted to be continuous despite discrepencies in image registration and compilation between separate original map sheets.

Process_Date: 19980910

Process_Step:

Process_Description:

Labels are attributed with geologic age and rock type in Arcedit, using special menus and the gray scale images as a backdrop guide. (This operation is conducted simultaneously with the digitization of arcs and labels. )
