Abstract: |
This digital product is a digital version of Nova Scotia Department of Natural Resources (NSNR&R) Open File Map ME 2003-1, Surficial Geology Map of Whycocomagh Area (N.T.S. 11F/14), Inverness County, Nova Scotia, 2003, by R.R. Stea and M.Feetham, scale 1:50 000. The digital product was created by the NSNR&R Mineral Resources Branch (MRB) staff. This map was produced as part of the joint federal-provincial Targeted Geoscience Initiative (South-central Cape Breton Island ). Funding for this project provided by the Nova Scotia Department of Natural Resources and the Geological Survey of Canada |
|
|
Purpose: |
The purpose of this data set is to create a digital version of NSNR&R Open File Map 2003-1. This digital product depicts the nature, distribution and thickness of surficial (surface-unconsolidated) deposits in the Whycocomagh map sheet of southwest Cape Breton Island. |

Description: |
The surficial mapping to create this map was done by Ralph Stea and Mary Feetham as part of the Targeted Geoscience Initiative project in South-central Cape Breton Island. The field data was then compiled into ArcView databases. Ralph Stea produced surficial geological contacts using the field data and airphoto interpretation. He marked the contacts onto the Air photos which were then scanned and georeferenced by John MacNeil and Julie Beaumont. The contacts were then digitized in ArcView by Ralph using shaded relief digital elevation models and the digital version of Grant's 1988 Surficial Geology Map of Cape Breton Island (Map 1631A). |

Description: |
The databases and shapefiles were then turned over to the MRB GIS Group. John MacNeil (until April 2003) followed by Julie Beaumont, took the databases and shapefiles and built all the GIS databases and created the polygons for the surficial geological units. She then created a shaded relief surficial geology image by combining the surficial geology unit shapefile with a shaded relief digital elevation image using ArcView's spatial analyst extension. |

Technical Prerequisite: |
In order to view this dataset, mapping software is required (eg. ArcView, MapInfo, AutoCad). If you do not have this software, ESRI provides a free map viewer called ArcExplorer, which you can download over the Internet. This viewer works with the ArcInfo Export (E00) files and an ArcExplorer Import Utility (import71.exe) is needed to convert the ArcInfo Export (E00) files into ArcInfo coverages, which can be then viewed in ArcExplorer. Problems have been reported trying to import ARC ArcInfo Export (E00) files into ArcView on Windows 95 computers. Related tables do not import into ArcView. It is not a problem on UNIX, Windows 3.1 or Windows NT platforms. If you experience this problem you can use our DXF/DBF product which contains the tables in dBase format. dBase files can be imported into ArcView. This map is intended for use at the published scale of 1:50 000.
In order to view our PDF files on your computer, you will require a PDF Viewer (e. g. Adobe(R) Acrobat(R) Reader). If you do not have this software, Adobe(R) provides this software for FREE download over the Internet. You will require Adobe(R) Acrobat(R) Reader version 4.0 or greater to view the PDF files. |
