Description:
Abstract:
This dataset is the digital version of the map titled "Quaternary Geology of Calumet and Manitowoc Counties, Wisconsin."The map was originally published as Plate 1 of Quaternary Geology of Calumet and Manitowoc Counties, Wisconsin, Wisconsin Geological and Natural History Survey Bulletin 108, by David M. Mickelson and Betty J. Socha, 2017.This dataset provides a spatial assessment of the unconsolidated surface sediment across both counties. The dataset was created by a combination of field mapping, soil boring sample collection, and aerial photograph interpretation.
Purpose:
This dataset was produced as part of a project to map the unconsolidated surficial materials in Calumet and Manitowoc Counties, Wisconsin.
Understanding the surficial deposits, and the geologic processes that produced them, is an important resource for land-use planning decisions. Note that this dataset was developed for presentation and interpretation at the 1:100,000 scale, and may not be accurate for site-specific applications.

Process_Step:
Process_Description:
The map was created by interpretation of topographic maps and aerial photographs followed by fieldwork that consisted of examination and description of all surface outcrops. This was supported by compilation and interpretation of WCRs and limited soil borings by the authors. Map units are based on lithostratigraphic unit, sediment genesis, and landforms.
