Brief description
The data on this CDROM is a digital re-production of the 1st edition 1990 geological outcrop map of the Quartz 1:100,000 map sheet 5951. A scanned image of the hardcopy map was digitised using Microstation and ArcInfo software. Digital standards are based on Geoscience Digital Data Dictionary for GIS Products Version 2004.01 for Geology and Lithology layers. The finished product has been provided as ArcView shapefiles and ArcInfo export files on CD-ROM. Internal quality assurance has been performed on the coverages. Stratigraphic nomenclature used is current as of June 15, 2005.Lineage

Statement: A printed hardcopy map of the Quartz geological map was scanned by Geoscience Australia, digitised partially using Microstation software, and finished using Unix-based ArcInfo software. The digital maps were plotted using ArcInfo AML scripts and checked visually for any errors. Unix-based ArcInfo QA scripts have been run on the digital data to ensure that it meets the requirements for Version 2004.01 of the Geoscience Australia Data Dictionary for GIS Products.
