GIS Data for Geology of the Payette National Forest and Vicinity, West-Central Idaho
This U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) data release provides an updated digital geospatial database for the geologic map of the Payette National Forest and vicinity, west-central Idaho (Lund, 2004). Attribute tables and geospatial features (points, lines and polygons) conform to the Geologic Map Schema (USGS NCGMP, 2020) and represent the geologic map as published in USGS Professional Paper 1666. Minor errors, such as mistakes in line decoration or differences between the digital data and the map image, are corrected in this version.
The database represents the geology for the 2.3 million-acre, geologically complex Payette National Forest in two plates, at a publication scale of 1:100,000. The map covers primarily Adams, Idaho, Valley, and Washington Counties, but also includes minor parts of Gem, Custer, and Lemhi Counties. New geologic mapping was undertaken between 1991 and 2003 and synthesized with older published maps, providing significant stratigraphic and structural data, age data for intrusive rocks, and interpretations of geologic development.
