================================================ MAPS-L ** MAPS-L ** MAPS-L ** MAPS-L ** MAPS-L ================================================ Subject: Question about cataloging geologic maps Date: Thu, 29 Sep 2005 From: Curtis, Gwen <[log in to unmask]> To: Maps, Air Photo & Geospatial Systems Forum <[log in to unmask]> Could someone with experience cataloging geologic maps please advise me on something? When a geologic map shows structure by contour lines, is that considered relief? Should it be coded as "Relf: a" and described in a note as - Relief shown by contours? Or, do the codes for relief only pertain to topographic and bathymetric relief? Perhaps the note should be "Structure shown by contours" and the relief code left blank. What do you think? ********************************** Gwen Curtis Geology Library and Map Collection University of Kentucky Libraries 410C King Library Addition Lexington, KY 40506-0039 Phone: (859) 257-1853 Fax: (859) 323-3225 Email: [log in to unmask]
