One digital geospatial data set outlines the study area for a bedrock aquifer investigation. The data was created by CEOS_EXTRA to support the 1998 report "Structure, Outcrop, and Subcrop of the Bedrock Aquifers Along the Western Margin of the Denver Basin, Colorado".
Use Cases
- Integrate the study_area_outline with modern geological maps to analyze changes in aquifer understanding.
- Use the boundary feature to clip or constrain hydrological models for the western Denver Basin region.
- Reference the outline in metadata to establish the spatial context for data cited from the 1998 Robson report.
Strengths
- Data is directly tied to a specific, cited technical report (Robson and others, 1998).
- Provides a definitive spatial boundary for a major published aquifer study.
Limitations
- The dataset is over 25 years old and may not reflect current geological interpretations or land use.
- No information on row count, file format, or coordinate reference system is provided.
Provenance
- Source
- CEOS_EXTRA, likely derived from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) report.
- Collection Method
- Created digitally to depict the study area outlined in the referenced report.
- Time Range
- null
- Freshness
- null
- Geography
- Western margin of the Denver Basin, Colorado, USA.
