Datasets documenting lineament mapping and neotectonic observations in northern New Mexico

Published by U.S. Geological Survey | Department of the Interior | Catalog Last Checked: August 01, 2026 at 04:52 AM | Dataset Last Updated: November 02, 2021 at 12:00 AM
These datasets provide remotely mapped lineaments and neotectonic observations in northern New Mexico, based on 1-m lidar and satellite imagery data. Some lineaments are interpreted to be Quaternary-active faults, whereas others are interpreted to be older bedrock faults with no evidence for Quaternary movement. Simplified fault traces for interpreted Quaternary-active faults are provided for seismic hazard studies.
