Abstract:
This information represents a digital version of the fault lines shown on "Bedrock Geologic Map of Wisconsin," originally published in 1982 at a scale of 1:1,000,000.
Purpose:
This dataset provides users with a digital representation of the distribution of the bedrock units in Wisconsin and should not be used for site-specific geologic assessment.
