These attributes include: the map unit (GESS_MU),  a geomorphic modifier (GESS_Modifier), a sediment stratification indicator (SedStrat), and a a sediment texture classification (Texture6). \nPossible GESS_MU values include: alluvial sediment, colluvial sediment, eolian sediment, lacustrine sediment, marine sediment, organic sediment, outwash, ice-contact deposits, island, residual soils, soliflucted sediment, till, bedrock, fill, and water. Possible GESS_Modifier values include: e (end moraine), g (ground moraine), s (stagnation moraine), d (discontinuous or attenuated), or f (soliflucted). Possible SedStrat values include \"0\" (unstratified, and \"1\" (stratified). Possible values for Texture6 include mostly sandy, sandy-silty, mostly silty, silty-clayey, mostly clayey, and mostly organic.", "distribution": [{"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "accessURL": "https://doi.org/10.5066/F71R6PQG", "description": "Landing page for access to the data", "format": "XML", "mediaType": "application/http", "title": "Digital Data"}, {"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "description": "The metadata original format", "downloadURL": "https://data.usgs.gov/datacatalog/metadata/USGS.5a382871e4b0d05ee8b21324.xml", "format": "XML", "mediaType": "text/xml", "title": "Original Metadata"}], "identifier": "http://datainventory.doi.gov/id/dataset/USGS_5a382871e4b0d05ee8b21324", "keyword": ["Glacial drift", "Glacial outwash sediment", "Holocene", "Pleistocene", "Quaternary", "Stratified glacial sediment", "Till", "USGS:5a382871e4b0d05ee8b21324", "confined and unconfined aquifers", "geoscientificInformation", "glaciology", "hydrogeologic framework", "hydrogeologic terranes", "hydrogeology", "surficial deposits", "surficial geologic maps", "surficial geologic units", "surficial sediments", "water use"], "modified": "2020-08-14T00:00:00Z", "publisher": {"@type": "org:Organization", "name": "U.S. Geological Survey"}, "spatial": "-124.969069883, 35.090811167, -65.343237884, 50.932504994", "theme": ["geospatial"], "title": "Glacial Environments and Surficial Sediments (GESS) Geodatabase for the Glaciated, Conterminous United States"}
