The Digital Surficial Geologic-GIS Map of Gauley River National Recreation Area, West Virginia is composed of GIS data layers and GIS tables, and is available in the following GRI-supported GIS data formats: 1.) an ESRI file geodatabase (gari_surficial_geology.gdb), a 2.) Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) geopackage, and 3.) 2.2 KMZ/KML file for use in Google Earth, however, this format version of the map is limited in data layers presented and in access to GRI ancillary table information. The file geodatabase format is supported with a 1.) ArcGIS Pro 3.X map file (.mapx) file (gari_surficial_geology.mapx) and individual Pro 3.X layer (.lyrx) files (for each GIS data layer). The OGC geopackage is supported with a QGIS project (.qgz) file. Upon request, the GIS data is also available in ESRI shapefile format. Contact Stephanie O'Meara (see contact information below) to acquire the GIS data in these GIS data formats. In addition to the GIS data and supporting GIS files, three additional files comprise a GRI digital geologic-GIS dataset or map: 1.) a readme file (gari_geology_gis_readme.pdf), 2.) the GRI ancillary map information document (.pdf) file (gari_geology.pdf) which contains geologic unit descriptions, as well as other ancillary map information and graphics from the source map(s) used by the GRI in the production of the GRI digital geologic-GIS data for the park, and 3.) a user-friendly FAQ PDF version of the metadata (gari_surficial_geology_metadata_faq.pdf). Please read the gari_geology_gis_readme.pdf for information pertaining to the proper extraction of the GIS data and other map files. Google Earth software is available for free at: https://www.google.com/earth/versions/. QGIS software is available for free at: https://www.qgis.org/en/site/.

Source geologic maps and data used to complete this GRI digital dataset were provided by the following: West Virginia Geological and Economic Survey. Detailed information concerning the sources used and their contribution the GRI product are listed in the Source Citation section(s) of this metadata record (gari_surficial_geology_metadata.txt or gari_surficial_geology_metadata_faq.pdf). Users of this data are cautioned about the locational accuracy of features within this dataset. Based on the source map scale of 1:12,000 and United States National Map Accuracy Standards features are within (horizontally) 10.2 meters or 33.3 feet of their actual location as presented by this dataset. Users of this data should thus not assume the location of features is exactly where they are portrayed in Google Earth, ArcGIS Pro, QGIS or other software used to display this dataset. All GIS and ancillary tables were produced as per the NPS GRI Geology-GIS Geodatabase Data Model v. 2.3. (available at: https://www.nps.gov/articles/gri-geodatabase-model.htm).

Tax District Boundaries: Official tax district boundary lines adopted by the WV Legislature in 1978 as a general reference to delineate rural tax district boundaries. The boundaries were drawn from 1:24,000-scale USGS topographic maps in 1978 and coincide with county magisterial districts as of July 1, 1973. Unlike magisterial districts that are realigned every ten years following the census, the tax district boundary does not follow equal representation requirements. In 1978 the West Virginia Geologic and Economical Survey published six 1:500,000-scale maps delineating official county and tax district boundary lines for the State. In 1996 the West Virginia Department of Tax and Revenue, Property Tax Division, converted the 1978 source maps into a digital format and added descriptive attributes for each tax district. In October of 2003, the WV GIS Technical Center appended 24K DLG boundary files and lines drawn from 24K DRGs into a statewide 24K Tax District Boundary dataset. In 2017, WVGISTC has appended this file with parcel data or Census Populated Places boundaries for missing tax districts.

WVDEP LiDAR data was collected by the Natural Resource Analysis Center at WVU under contract with the West Virginia Department of Environmental Protection, Division of Mining and Reclamation.The data was collected between 04/09/2010 and 12/13/2011 during leaf-off, snow and flood free conditions in the spring and fall.The data format is 1.5x1.5 km LAS v1.2 files in UTM 17 NAD83 (CORS96), NAVD88 (GEOID09). Contractor software initially classified ground returns for comprehensive and bare earth tiles, but did not perform other classifications. The Technical Applications and GIS (TAGIS) unit at the WVDEP performed Quality control checking and error correction on a tile-by-tile basis before creating derived products and edited LAS files.Hardware and flight parameters:Scanner: Optech ALTM-3100Post Spacing (Average): 3.3 ft / 1.0 meterFlying Height (Above Ground Level): 5,000-ft / 1,524 metersAverage Ground Speed: 135 knots (155 MPH)Scanner Pulse Rate Frequency: 70,000 HzScanner Frequency / Field of View: 35 Hz / 36 degrees (18 half angle)Overlap (Average): 30%In-depth metadata is available here, halfway down the page:LiDAR MetadataDownloads also available here:TAGIS LiDAR WebAppTAGIS LiDAR RepositoryLooking for 3DEP LiDAR?

These datasets contain points and polygons (of buildings over a certain size) of all buildings in West Virginia. The data was collected from 2003 natural color orthophotography by the WV Statewide Addressing and Mapping Board. These datasets contain all buildings, regardless of occupancy status. This data has never been validated. These data were originally published as two separate shapefiles, north and south, in WV State Plane projection. Upon receipt of the data, the West Virginia GIS Technical Center reprojected the datasets to UTM NAD83 Zone 17 North and merged the north and south shapefiles into one, statewide dataset.

Vector polygon map data of mile markers from West Virginia containing 2515 features.

Mile marker GIS data consists of points along a linear feature, such as roads or railways. They serve as reference points to measure distances along these features. Mile markers are often labeled with numbers indicating their distance from a starting point, such as a highway's origin or a railway station.

These markers are invaluable for navigation, route planning, emergency response, and data collection. For example, they help drivers and emergency services identify their location precisely on a road. In transportation planning, mile markers aid in analyzing traffic patterns, determining optimal routes, and estimating travel times. Additionally, they facilitate maintenance activities by providing clear reference points for inspecting and repairing infrastructure.

This data is available for viewing and sharing as a map in a Koordinates map viewer. This data is also available for export to DWG for CAD, PDF, KML, CSV, and GIS data formats, including Shapefile, MapInfo, and Geodatabase.
