    DGGS Geologic Earth Resource Library of Alaska (GERILA) Database

    Metadata Updated: February 24, 2024

    DGGS Geologic Earth Resource Library of Alaska (GERILA) Database, Digital Data Series 22, is the enterprise database back-end to the Alaska Division of Geological & Geophysical Survey's (DGGS) website and enterprise data repository. GERILA serves as an index to geologic information that supports State of Alaska statutes relating to the potential of Alaskan land for the production of metals, minerals, fuels, and geothermal resources, the locations and supplies of groundwater and construction material (Sec. 41.08.010), and the potential geologic hazards to buildings, roads, bridges, and other installations and structures and systematic collection, recording, evaluation, and distribution of hydrological and seismic hazard data declared to be of public interest (Sec. 41.08.017). Much of the information stored in GERILA is viewable through DGGS's public website, which provides search interfaces for specific data modules, including our geologic publications catalog (https://dggs.alaska.gov/pubs). The database is actively updated as new information becomes available or published. Consequently, products developed from the database may change over time as information and data are updated. DGGS encourages public members to contact DGGS's Geologic Information Center staff (dggspubs@alaska.gov) to discuss potential changes to the data or resolve errors in our derivative products. See the DGGS citation page for the preferred citation and additional information (http://doi.org/10.14509/31119).
