GIS Data (ver. 2) for Geologic Terranes of the Hailey 1 x 2 Degrees Quadrangle and the Western Part of the Idaho Falls 1 x 2 Degrees Quadrangle, South-Central Idaho

Published by U.S. Geological Survey | Department of the Interior | Catalog Last Checked: May 05, 2026 at 10:11 PM | Dataset Last Updated: March 31, 2021 at 12:00 AM
This U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) data release provides an updated digital geospatial database for the geologic terranes of the Hailey 1 degree x 2 degrees quadrangle and the western part of the Idaho Falls 1 degree x 2 degrees quadrangle, south-central Idaho (Worl and Johnson, 2000). Attribute tables and geospatial features (lines and polygons) conform to the Geologic Map Schema (USGS NCGMP, 2020) and represent the geologic map as published in USGS Bulletin 2064-A (Worl and Johnson, 1995). Minor errors, such as mistakes in line decoration or differences between the digital data and the map image, are corrected in this version. The database represents the geology for the 6.1 million-acre, geologically complex Hailey quadrangle and the western part of the Idaho Falls quadrangle, at a publication scale of 1:250,000. The map covers primarily Blaine, Camas, Custer and Elmore Counties, but also includes minor parts of Ada, Butte, Gooding, Lincoln, and Minidoka Counties. These GIS data supersede those in the interpretive report (Worl and Johnson, 2000).
