Cedar Grove quadrangle


Dear Diary – Cedar Grove

 

7/6/09 – PB sent me a combined Caldwell/Cedar Grove shapefile for polylines and stations.  MM divided the shapefiles into separate station files and polylines for each quadrangle.  MM created a new mdb for Cedar Grove and brought in the DRG.

 

7/22/09 – PB sent me a zip file with polylines for Caldwell/Cedar Grove.  MM clipped this feature class by the two quads and then ran topology on it.  MM then used the topology to identify and correct the errors.  MM used the toolbox in ArcInfo to create polygons from the polylines feature class.  Then MM sent the polygon shapefile back to PB to attribute the polygons.

 

7/23/09 – MM brought in the cross section tif image and rectified it to the end points of the cross section line.  MM then drew the lines for the cross section and used ArcToolbox to create polygons from those lines.  Then MM finished drawing the lines and placed text labels on the cross section.

 

8/3/09 – MM modified the layout to make it landscape (per FGDC conventions), and inserted the various pieces (xsection, scale bar, map location, etc.) that MM had at this point.

 

8/6/09 – PB came in and we worked on both Caldwell and Cedar Grove.  PB brought over the latest (and hopefully, last) polylines, and images for the layout.  MM put the rose diagrams and stratigraphy on the layout and then put the polylines in the view.  However, MM did notice that there was a gap between where the polygons that were derived from the polylines were, and where they should have been.  MM was going to fix the problem tomorrow and make sure the polygons and polylines are where they’re supposed to be.

 

8/7/09 – MM corrected the mistakes from yesterday by basically starting from scratch.  MM took PB’s latest polylines and did topology on them.  There were more mistakes than MM anticipated.  Once those were corrected, MM created polygons from the lines and then used the previous polygons to internally label the new rockunits.  Then MM externally labelled the rock units.

 

8/12/09 - MM split up the stations into juststations, lineation, single and multiple foliations.  MM then began to place the dip numbers around the symbols.  MM had trouble moving the points connected with the dip numbers, so MM just moved the dip numbers without moving the points for the text shapefiles.

 

8/13/09 – Finished moving dip numbers and then printed out the map.  Made changes to the map.

 

8/14/09 – Printed out the map again and made final changes.  Ready to hand off to SS on Monday.

 

8/17/09 – Handed over Cedar Grove and Caldwell to SS so that PB could make changes and corrections.

8/28/09 – PB was here today and MM made the corrections that he requested for this quadrangle.  We made other assorted corrections and printed out the map.  MM will take one last look and then Ken will look at it before we wrap it up.

 

8/29/09 – Made final corrections on Cedar Grove.
 
11/6/15 -  MM uploaded latest version of Cedar Grove map to Google Drive:
