AZGS STATEMAP Program - 2017

The STATEMAP Program has facilitated a tremendous amount of geologic mapping in the past 25 years, but it imposes a rather relentless schedule on state geological surveys. STATEMAP is part of the National Cooperative Geologic Mapping Program administered by the US Geological Survey (USGS). Federal funding is allocated annually, beginning in September for the AZGS, and is matched dollar-for-dollar by the state; we typically agree to deliver 4 or 5, 1:24,000-scale geologic maps at the end of the funding cycle. These products must be delivered to the USGS in fairly presentable draft form at the end of the contract period, or funding is not released for the following year.Documents in the AZGS Document Repository collection are made available by the Arizona Geological Survey (AZGS) and the University Libraries at the University of Arizona.
