Download .zipThe A Law Coal Permit Maps county coverage sets were developed using the original mine maps for coal mining and reclamation permits issued under Ohio law from approximately 1966 through 1973. Approximately 1111 A-Permits were issued during this time period, however, only 350 records could be located and captured at this time. The Division of Mineral Resources Management will continue to search for missing A permit archival records as resources allow; additional A permit data may be added to this existing coverage in the future.

Ohio started issuing coal mining licenses in the 1940s. The earliest license and permit requirements were minimal and sometimes did not include submittal of a map or other delineation of the mined area. Significant changes to legal requirements are reflected by the alphabetical designation of each subsequent law revision, i.e., earlier A-law permits (circa 1966) through contemporary D-law permits. The ODNR-Division of Mineral Resources Management (DMRM) has attempted to create as complete a database as possible from available archive records, however, research has identified missing permit files. Thus, this GIS data is known to be incomplete due to the loss of archival records.

The A law permit maps were scanned at a density of 200 dots per inch (dpi). The scanned image was then heads-up digitized using Microstation computer aided design software (CAD) to create design files grouped by county location. Data captured within the design file includes permit boundary and affected boundary and associated attributes. When available, test hole locations and associated attributes were also captured. The design file was then "placed-to-ground" using ODNR Division of Geological Survey's "ODNR Land Subdivision Background Design Files" NAD83 State Plane coverages and DOQQ aerial images obtained through the Ohio Geographically Referenced Information Program (OGRIP)/Ohio Department of Administrative Services. The design file was then converted to ARC/INFO coverage and projected to State Plane Ohio Coordinates, NAD83:

Projected coordinate system name: NAD_1983_StatePlane_Ohio_South_FIPS_3402_Feet or NAD_1983_StatePlane_Ohio_North_FIPS_3401_Feet

Geographic coordinate system name: GCS_North_American_1983

A complete county coverage set consists of three data files for the permit area, affected area, and test hole locations. For example, the coverage for Harrison County includes:

harrison_a_permitted (Harrison County, A-permit area polygons) harrison_a _affected (Harrison County, A-permit affected area polygons) harrison_testholes_a (Harrison County, Test Hole points)

In addition to the ArcView shape files in the county data sets, the scanned TIF images for source documents are available at DMRM. The scanned mine map depicts information about the operations conducted, environmental resources, and extracted coal resources. If more detailed information is desired, the available archival record for each captured permit can be accessed at either the State Archives at the Ohio Historical Society or the ODNR-DMRM central office.Contact Information:GIS Support, ODNR GIS ServicesOhio Department of Natural ResourcesDivision of Mineral Resources ManagementAbandoned Mine Land Program2045 Morse Rd, Bldg I-2Columbus, OH, 43229Telephone: 614-265-6462Email: gis.support@dnr.ohio.gov

1:125,000 scale Geologic Map of Western Humboldt County, Nevada. Detailed geologic mapping by D. C. Noble in 1970. Geologic Map includes description of 31 units. The GIS work was in support of the U.S. Geological Survey COGEOMAP program. The Geodatabase specifies feature datasets and feature classes, together with feature attributes, subtypes and domains, suitable for the printed geologic map. In addition to basic geology (lithology, contacts and faults, etc.), the maps may include metamorphic overprints, cross-sections, and explanatory legend-graphics such as correlation charts, used to supplement columnar legends.
