A County Geologic Atlas (CGA) project is a study of a county's geology, and its mineral and ground-water resources. The information collected during the project is used to develop maps, data-base files, and reports. This same information is also produced as digital files. The map information is formatted as geographic information system (GIS) files with associated data bases. The maps and reports are also reproduced as portable document files (PDFs) that can be opened on virtually any computer using the free Acrobat Reader from Adobe.com. All of the digital files for the CGA's can be downloaded from the University of Minnesota Digital Conservancy. The majority of the files can also be viewed and queried through the use of this Story Map.Atlas information is commonly used in planning and environmental protection programs, as an educational resource, and by industries involved in water and mineral resources. It represents a comprehensive, detailed compilation of geologic data and interpretations within a county. The distribution and character of geologic materials determine how and where water enters the earth, and where it is stored in aquifers that can supply our needs. Geologic maps are a key element in delineating those flow paths and in relating land use to water quality. The atlas also provides a framework and terminology to support more detailed, site-specific studies. The records of water wells drilled in the area are an important source of data for constructing the maps and for understanding the distribution and use of ground water in the county. A data base of the information from those wells is one of the atlas products, and it can be queried with the GIS files to yield valuable insights for managing the ground-water resource.The atlas is also useful to non-professionals who simply wish to learn more about the geology of the county. It is a one-stop, comprehensive collection of information in a variety of forms and styles that should be useful to anyone with an interest in earth science or the county.The geologic data and maps are produced and distributed by the Minnesota Geological Survey (MGS) as Part A of an Atlas. The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources follows with an investigation of the quantity, quality, and pollution sensitivity of ground water. Their products are distributed as Part B of the atlas, at a later date. If necessary, a report with additional information that was not possible to include on the limited space of the printed maps is produced by MGS as Part C of, or included as a supplement to, an atlas. The Atlas CD or DVD, which is available online at the Digital Conservancy, includes all the atlas products developed by the Minnesota Geological Survey.
