Tularosa Basin Play Fairway Analysis Data and Models
This submission includes raster datasets for each layer of evidence used for weights of evidence analysis as well as the deterministic play fairway analysis (PFA). Data representative of heat, permeability and groundwater comprises some of the raster datasets. Additionally, the final deterministic PFA model is provided along with a certainty model. All of these datasets are best used with an ArcGIS software package, specifically Spatial Data Modeler.

"description": " This ground water layer for the Tularosa Basin, New Mexico was created by buffering water wells, from the New Mexico State Engineer POD water database, at a radius of 2 km. Springs were also buffered at a radius of 2 km. In areas of known active aquifer recharge, gaps were also filled in. Additionally, the Pleistocene Lake Otero shoreline was also buffered at 2 km and included. Several wells not known of in Phase 1 were added."

"description": "This is the heat flow data used for weights of evidence analysis for geothermal play fairway analysis (PFA) in Phase 2 Tularosa Basin, New Mexico, PFA. Heat flow data from the SMU Geothermal Laboratory were interpolated, using the inverse distance weighted method, over Nevada, Utah, and New Mexico. The results were then classified using 1/3 standard deviation to create 16 classes where high values indicate high heat flow and low values indicate low heat flow. "

"description": "Structure, in this model, is represented by fault patterns that indicate zones of critical stress and fracture permeability. Zones of critical stress from fault systems located at hot springs and known geothermal systems were taken from the Faulds, J. E., Structural Inventory of Great Basin Geothermal Systems and Definition of Favorable Structural Settings for Nevada and Utah and mapped in New Mexico by the project PI. "

"description": "This was used as a layer of evidence for weights of evidence analysis to develop a probabilistic geothermal play fairway analysis model of the Tularosa Basin, New Mexico for Phase 2 PFA. The data have been re-interpolated for Phase 2 including the new data acquired in the Tularosa Basin area, making this dataset different than the the temperature gradient data used in Phase 1. The results were classified using 1/3 standard deviation to create 12 classes where high values indicate high temperature gradients and low values indicate low temperature gradients."

"description": "This is the quartz conditional geothermometer dataset used as a layer of evidence for weights of evidence analysis in Phase 2 Tularosa Basin, New Mexico, geothermal play fairway analysis. The region, expanded well beyond the study area, was necessary to provide training points at a significant number of hot springs and known geothermal systems. "

"description": "This is the Phase 2 deterministic geothermal play fairway analysis (PFA) model of the Tularosa Basin and the area just east-northeast of Las Cruces New Mexico. This GIS dataset shows areas with low, medium, and high risk for geothermal exploration within the study area. It was created using composite risk segments (CRS) which included heat of the Earth and Quaternary fault related fracturing (these can be found separately). Groundwater is left out of this model due to its abundance throughout the area, as verified in by the accompanying water dataset."

The values represent low, medium, and high risk for geothermal heat; derived from heat flow, temperature gradient and geothermometer datasets across the Tularosa Basin."
