The location of seismic lines indicates where historic exploration activity has taken place and where data is available. This shapefile is configured to allow hyperlinks between seismic lines in an ArcReader project and graphic images of the seismic profile for each seismic line. As part of the U.S. Government's effort to aid in reconstructing Afghanistan's economy and infrastructure, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) is cooperating with the Afghanistan Ministry of Mines and Industry (AMMI) to assess the undiscovered petroleum (includes crude oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids/condensates) resources of Afghanistan. Funding for this effort was provided by the US Trade and Development Agency (USTDA). 20060401 publication date Complete None planned 65.058829 66.299610 36.987023 36.546259 ArcIMS Metadata Server Theme Codes Thesaurus geoscientificInformation USGS Energy Program Themes Thesaurus Seismic lines Earth Science Natural Resources U.S. Geological Survey USGS Afghanistan Ministry of Mines and Industry Joint Oil and Gas Resource Assessment Team Geology Oil Natural Gas Petroleum Resource Assessment EnergyResourceActivities oilgas wep worldgeologicmaps afghan Energy Program Petroleum Assessment Units Afghan-Tajik basin, Province 1156 Amu Darya basin, Province 1154 U.S. State Department - Independent States of the World Islamic State of Afghanistan AF Northern Afghanistan Turkmenistan TX Uzbekistan UZ Southern Uzbekistan Tajikistan TI Southwestern Tajikistan USGS Metadata Identifier USGS:60ad21c7d34e4043c850e7d2 None This data is not intended for use at a scale greater than 1:100,000.

Steinshouer Microsoft Windows 2000 Version 5.0 (Build 2195) Service Pack 4; ESRI ArcCatalog 8.2.0.700 The polygons are attributed as portrayed on the original source map. Arc topology exists. Polylines are digitized and attributed as portrayed on the original source map. Challenges were posed to registration of the scanned image of the original source map by uncertainty as to the projection of the original map and by systematic distortion of the base map used in compilation of the original map by Soviet cartographers for security reasons. Several well locations that had been surveyed with hand held GPS were available. These were used as registration points. The registration points were projected to Gauss-Krueger zone 11 projection with a transformation parameter to account for distortion by Soviet cartographers and a Pulkovo 1942 datum commonly used on Soviet era maps. The image was scanned with a resolution of 200 dots per inch (0.13 mm), equivalent to 12.6 meters at a scale of 1:100,000. It was registered with a software (ArcMap) calculated RMS of 27.5 meters. Sampling differences between the rectified image and the NIMA reference points yielded an observed RMS of 40.9 meters. The resulting data complies U.S. national map accuracy standards (50.8 meters at a scale of 1:100,000). 40.9 meters Root mean square (RMS) error of registration of scanned image of original map to National Imagery and Mapping Agency (NIMA) cities and international boundaries.
