- Abstract:
- This information represents a digital version of the iron
formation features 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.

- Process_Description:
- The "Pif" unit for 27 of the 29 occurrences is a very
thin geologic unit spatially, it was decided to show the "area" as a
linear feature rather than as a polygon.
