Description:
Abstract:
Aeromagnetic data were collected along flight lines by instruments in an
aircraft that recorded magnetic-field values and locations. This dataset
presents latitude, longitude, altitude, and magnetic-field values.
Purpose:
Aeromagnetic surveys are used for geophysical prospecting. Some
variations in magnetic measurements are caused by rocks that
contain significant amounts of magnetic minerals (magnetite being
the most common). These anomalies reflect variations in the
amount and type of magnetic material and the shape and depth of
the body of rock.
Aeromagnetic anomaly maps are important tools in mapping
surficial and buried igneous rocks. The features and patterns
of aeromagnetic anomalies can also be used to delineate details
of subsurface geology including the locations of buried faults and
the thickness of surficial sedimentary rocks.
Supplemental_Information:
The U.S. Geological Survey has contracted or flown numerous
airborne surveys over a long period (1950's to present). Not
all flight-line data have been released to the public
because of lack of personnel to reformat data and service the
requests. With the improvement in digital communication
and the ability to store and transmit large data sets, the
USGS is now able to release the flight-line data in a
common format.
A companion CD-ROM/web site has been released containing
magnetic data that were generated by digitizing analog maps.
Digital flight-line data used to create the analog maps are
unavailable. Reference is in the Cross-Reference section of
this metadata file.

Native_Data_Set_Environment:
These data were originally recorded on 9-track
magnetic tapes and were transferred to CD-ROM.
Data processing took place on an HP workstation
running a Windows NT operating system. Data
were reformatted using the Geosoft, Inc., program
Oasis Montaj version 4.3.
