Geospatial datasets for estimating depth to the top of the Dakota Sandstone, Ute Mountain Ute Reservation, Colorado, 2017
Geospatial datasets were developed to estimate the depth to the top of the Dakota Sandstone in feet below land surface datum within the Ute Mountain Ute Reservation in Colorado. This study was completed by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) in cooperation with the Ute Mountain Ute Tribe. One dataset was created for the contours showing the altitude (in feet) of the top of the Dakota Sandstone (shapefile Kd_talt_hand), and a second dataset was created for polygons representing the outcrops of the Dakota Sandstone (shapefile Dakota_outcrop_poly). These two datasets were used in combination with USGS digital elevation models (DEM) to create a dataset for the depth of the top of the Dakota Sandstone below the land surface contoured at a 100-foot interval (shapefile kd_depth_ci100). The kd_depth_ci100 dataset was used to generate a figure showing the generalized depth to the top of the Dakota Sandstone in feet below land surface in Bauch and Arnold (2019).
