DearDiary - Red Oak
9/11/12 – I began the process of creating an .mxd. I opened up the Red_Oak_GeoTiff.mxd and brought in the RedOak_Points_SM19_final2 shapefile.
9/12/12 – I changed the RedOak_Points_SM19_final2 shapefile into RedOak_AllPoints and began to change the attribute table to symbolize the points. I placed all the points and arranged them around the central locations. I then put out the dip numbers and began to arrange them around the symbols.
9/13/12 – I started with the day, but I realized on the southern portion of the map, Randy’s symbols have a problem. The azimuth and the inclination are the same. Apparently, when all the geologist’s files were merged into one, Randy’s got screwed up. It took about 30 minutes to fix the problem. Then I arranged the rest of the dip numbers around the symbols.
9/17/12 – I downloaded data from Heather for a new RedOak_Production.mxd. I copied those five feature classes into the RedOak_DISTRIBUTION geodatabase as temp files and I will work on them after I have completed the other three maps.
9/21/12 – I brought in different layers and started to create the layout. I downloaded files from Heather to create this.
9/22/12 (Sat.) – I continued to formulate this map. I added rock units to the quadrangle and the cross section. I brought in the rock unit text and adjusted the layout so everything would fit. I completed the layout and printed a copy to give to Phil on Monday.
9/24/12 – 9/25/12 – I corrected Phil’s changes and my own changes and gave the map to Ken for review.
9/26/12 – I corrected Ken’s changes, made other minor adjustments and printed out a final copy for the USGS! Finished!
10/8/13 – Once Essex was completed this Statemap cycle, there were edgematch problems with Red Oak. Phil gave me some edits for the map, and I made the changes. I sent him a revised pdf of the map.
1/4/16 - MM updated latest map of the Red Oak map to Google Drive:
