Digital geospatial datasets in support of hydrologic investigations of the Colorado Front Range Infrastructure Resources Project

Rafferty, Sharon A., Arnold, L.R., and Char, Stephen J. 20021007 Digital geospatial datasets in support of hydrologic investigations of the Colorado Front Range Infrastructure Resources Project vector digital data Open-File Report OFR 02-338 Reston, VA U.S. Geological Survey https://water.usgs.gov/lookup/getspatial?ofr02-338_watertbl U.S. Geological Survey 1999 Colorado Front Range Infrastructure Resources Project report Open-File Report OFR 99-001 Denver, Colorado U.S. Geological Survey accessed March 25, 2002 https://pubs.usgs.gov/ds/2006/193/intro.html The U.S. Geological Survey developed this dataset as part of the Colorado Front Range Infrastructure Resources Project (FRIRP). One goal of the FRIRP was to provide information on the availability of those hydrogeologic resources that are either critical to maintaining infrastructure along the northern Front Range or that may become less available because of urban expansion in the northern Front Range. This dataset extends from the Boulder-Jefferson County line on the south, to the middle of Larimer and Weld Counties on the North. On the west, this dataset is bounded by the approximate mountain front of the Front Range of the Rocky Mountains; on the east, by an arbitrary north-south line extending through a point about 6.5 kilometers east of Greeley. This digital geospatial dataset consists of digitized water-level-elevation contours. This dataset was created by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) in the development of the USGS Front Range Infrastructure Resources Project. This dataset was used in the creation of 1:50,000-scale hydrogeologic contour maps. It also was used as an input source for the automated generation of a water-level-elevation surface that was in turn used to generate an unsaturated-zone-thickness (depth-to-water) surface, also contoured for use in 1:50,000 maps. Water-level-elevation data from well logs (see "Lineage" section) were manually plotted and contoured onto mylar overlays of 45 paper USGS 7.5-minute topographic series quadrangle maps that encompass the Colorado Front Range Infrastructure Resources Project area. The mylar overlays were scanned into Tagged Image File Format (TIFF) image files that were then converted into Arc/INFO raster datasets known as grids. The grids were converted into vector datasets known as coverages in Arc/INFO-specific terminology. Arc items "CONTOUR" and "DASH" were added to the arc attribute table of the coverage and manually attributed in Arcedit, using the original manuscript mylars for references. The coverages were then projected into a common map coordinate system and edgematched. The northern and eastern areas of each coverage were edgematched when necessary: the linework of the northern edge of a coverage was adjusted to fit the linework of the southern edge of a coverage adjacent to the north; the linework of the eastern edge of a coverage was adjusted to fit the linework of the western edge of a coverage adjacent to the east. The linework from each coverage was appended into a single coverage in which dangling vectors less than 12.192 meters long were removed and in which vector vertices and nodes within 1.2192 meters of each other were merged. The coverage was built with line topology. Linework extends beyond the southern edge of the study area for consistency with previous work in that area (Robson, 1996). The final coverage in intended to be used as one thematic layer in maps to be published at a scale of 1:50,000. Any use of trade, product, or firm names is for descriptive purposes only and does not imply endorsement by the U.S. Government. Although this Federal Geographic Data Committee-compliant metadata file is intended to document the dataset in nonproprietary form, as well as in ArcInfo format, this metadata file may include some ArcInfo-specific terminology. 20021007 publication date Complete None planned -105.298168 -104.597969 40.750502 39.908998 USGS Thesaurus watertable aquifer hydrology inlandWaters ISO 19115 Topic Category geoscientificInformation inlandWaters environment USGS Metadata Identifier USGS:b4b923e1-73ff-49df-b2eb-1370f40fe084 Geographic Names Information System Colorado Denver Fort Collins Greeley Boulder None This dataset should not be used at a scale larger than 1:50,000.

Information concerning completeness that is not contained in the Supplemental_Information element can be found in Robson and others (2000a, 200b, 2000c, 2000d). Maps of water-level elevation were prepared at 1:24,000 by hand-contouring data with 10- and 20-foot-contour intervals. These maps were produced directly from data and for the purposes of this study are considered to be first-order maps with a vertical accuracy of about 10 feet, or about 3 meters. 3 No tests were performed to verify the Vertical Positional Accuracy Value.
