These images are designed to highlight regional scale (1:250 000) structure and stratigraphy within the Meguma Group. This image incorporates a color overlay (aeromagnetic data) with a shaded relief layer (digital elevation model). The aeromagnetic image represents processed and enhanced "calculated second derivative" data, gridded to a 75 m cell size. The product consists of three TIF and JPG images at 25, 40 and 80 m cell size.
Purpose:
These images are designed to highlight regional scale (1:250 000) structure and stratigraphy within the Meguma Group.

The images were used to create the compiled second derivative imaged that was later combined with the DEM data.
All flight lines were oriented north-south and flown 300 m apart at 150 m mean terrain clearance (MTC) with the exception of the Seabright project which was flown with a nominal flight line spacing of 200m.

The 25 m cell resolution image, ADEMG.TIF, was created by M. S. (Steve) King under contract to MRB in 2000. The image was supplied to MRB in a MapInfo format to by used by Cartography to product a 1:250 000 map of the eastern meguma.
The image was taken by Jeff Poole who georeferenced it in Arcview and created two small derived images at 40 and 80 m cell sizes so that they could be downloaded over the Internet more easily. Jeff named these images ADEMG025.TIF, ADEMG040.TIF and ADEMG080.TIF.
In January 2006 the data set was renamed from O00002 to M011EMAD and moved from the IMAGE directory on the MRB "S" drive to the MAGNETIC directory. The images were renamed at the same time. The ADEMGxxx.TIF image series were renamed to SDD_xxx_EM.TIF, where xxx stands for the cell size of the images. This work was done by Brian Fisher.
In January 2006 the .TIF images were converted from UTM zone 20 NAD27 coordinates to UTM zone 20 NAD83 coordinates. This was done by Angie Ehler running the AML file - Tif27to83.aml. Once the .TIF images were re-projected, they were converted to .JPG's, making two NAD83 image sets available (tif and jpg). This work was done by Angie Ehler.
