Data supporting the construction of the Three-Dimensional Geologic Map and Geology-based Seismic Velocity Model of the Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta and surrounding region, California

Published by U.S. Geological Survey | Department of the Interior | Catalog Last Checked: May 05, 2026 at 09:21 PM | Dataset Last Updated: October 25, 2023 at 12:00 AM
This report includes the previously unpublished primary and derivative data sets that underpin the construction of the three dimensional (3D) geologic map of the upper part of the Earth's crust beneath the Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta, California. The primary data is X,Y,Z locations of stratigraphic horizons and, to a much lesser extent, geologic structures where penetrated by oil and gas wells in the subsurface as recorded in well logs and well records. The derivative data sets were constructed to more closely constrain the principal stratigraphic horizons and geologic structures that were incorporated into the 3D model. The derivative data sets are extracted from the principal data set or a combination of the principal data set with other previously published data. This Data Release is not intended to be a stand-alone publication, but is only intended to release the digital data sets that undergird the related Scientific Investigations Report. The information in this Data Release mainly describes the details of the contents and formats of the digital files. The user is encouraged to refer to the main report for more discussion of sources and methods.
