GIS Data for Selected Data from the Geologic Map of the Western Part of the Cut Bank 1 Degree x 2 Degrees Quadrangle, Northwestern Montana
This U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) data release updates the digital geospatial database for the southern portion of the geologic map of the western part of the Cut Bank 1 degree x 2 degrees quadrangle, northwestern Montana (Harrison and others, 1998). Attribute tables and geospatial features (points, lines, and polygons) conform to the Geologic Map Schema (USGS NCGMP, 2020) and represent the geologic map as published in the U.S. Geological Survey Geologic Investigations Series Map I-2593. Minor errors, such as mistakes in line decoration or differences between the digital data and the map image, are corrected, and missing orientation points are included in this version.
The database represents the geology for the 899,246-acre, geologically complex southwestern portion of the Cut Bank 1 degree x 2 degrees quadrangle, at a publication scale of 1:250,000. The map covers primarily Flathead, Glacier, Pondera, and Teton Counties, but also includes minor parts of Lake County.
