  4. Content of the standard • Comprehensive set of geologic and base-category symbols • Map unit colors and patterns • Geologic age font • Terminology for scientific and locational certainty of geologic map features

  5. Standards development • 1996-1998 – review of existing standards; USGS preparation of FGDC draft • 1999-2000 – FGDC review (GDS and SWG) • 2000-2001 – Public Review of standard; evaluation of comments • 2002-2004 – revision of standard, with assistance from newly-formed Standing Committee • 2005-2006 – preparation and review of final version.

  6. Implementation and maintenance • Publish in PDF and in full-color, loose-leaf paper format • Publish implementations (in Postscript, ArcGIS format) • Maintain the standard: • Encourage public comments that lead to periodic revision of the standard • The National Geologic Map Database project will initiate the revisions, with guidance provided by the Standing Committee and the FGDC GDS • Revisions will be published in PDF format, and all interested parties will be notified by email.

  7. Action • Discussion • Vote to approve the Digital Cartographic Standard for Geologic Map Symbolization for FGDC endorsement

  8. Observations • State participation enabled through close collaboration between FGDC Geologic Data Subcommittee and American Association of State Geologists • Reminder sent to reviewers one month before end of public review stimulated submission of comments.
