    • Geologic Map Schema (GeMS) version of Wentworth, C.M., Knudsen, K.L., and Witter, R.C., 2023, Quaternary deposits of the 9-county San Francisco Bay Region

    Metadata Updated: October 29, 2025

    This is a conversion of Wentworth and others (2023)[DAS1] to the Geologic Map Schema (GeMS) for inclusion in the National Geologic Map Database. The original publication was in the Alacarte schema commonly used for geologic map databases prior to the release of the now mandatory GeMS. The GIS layers in this release have the same scientific content as the source data release. The source data release lacks description of map units, however, so those have been copied verbatim from the two principal sources for that work (Witter and others, 2006 [DAS2]; Knudsen and others, 2000 [DAS3]).
