Digital Geologic Map of the Kayjay Quadrangle and Kentucky part of the Fork Ridge Quadrangle, Kentucky (NPS, GRD, GRE, CUGA, KAYJ digital map)

Published by National Park Service | Department of the Interior | Metadata Last Checked: June 26, 2025 | Last Modified: 2008-09-29
The Digital Geologic Map of the Kayjay Quadrangle and Kentucky part of the Fork Ridge Quadrangle, Kentucky is composed of GIS data layers complete with ArcMap 9.2 layer (.LYR) files, two ancillary GIS tables, a Windows Help File with ancillary map text, figures and tables, a FGDC metadata record and a 9.2 ArcMap (.MXD) Document that displays the digital map in 9.2 ArcGIS. The data were completed as a component of the Geologic Resource Evaluation (GRE) program, a National Park Service (NPS) Inventory and Monitoring (I&M) funded program that is administered by the NPS Geologic Resources Division (GRD). Source geologic maps and data used to complete this GRE digital dataset were provided by the following: Kentucky Geological Survey (KGS) and U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). Detailed information concerning the sources used and their contribution the GRE product are listed in the Source Citation sections(s) of this metadata record (kayj_metadata.txt; available at http://nrdata.nps.gov/cuga/nrdata/geology/gis/kayj_metadata.xml). All GIS and ancillary tables were produced as per the NPS GRE Geology-GIS Geodatabase Data Model v. 2.0. (available at: http://science.nature.nps.gov/im/inventory/geology/GeologyGISDataModel.cfm). The GIS data is available as a 9.2 personal geodatabase (kayj_geology.mdb), and as shapefile (.SHP) and DBASEIV (.DBF) table files. The GIS data projection is NAD83, UTM Zone 17N. That data is within the area of interest of Cumberland Gap National Historical Park.
