| Details:
The Bedrock metadata files
contain metadata for the following layers: Basins; Terranes; Volcanic,
Sedimentary, Metamorphic and Intrusive rocks by era; Bedrock Geology-
by lithology (hatched), by age and rock class (shade), by age and rock
class (solid), and Map Unit Labels. Contacts & Faults,
Quaternary geology, and Ocean for geology layers have their own
metadata files. Many of these layers
are downloadable as ARC Shapefiles and
all are
viewable through the maps of MapPlace.
These layers are represented in
BC Albers
(suffix _alb) and Geographic (decimal degrees) projections (suffix _dd).
All projections use NAD83 as the datum.
The BC Albers projections have metadata available in
FGDC
standards and
ISO
standards through the Land & Resource Data
Warehouse Catalogue while the Geographic projections have metadata
available in FGDC standards only. |
