Aggregate resources, geology, and wells

Minnesota Geological Survey data:
shapefile:
 cwiwells - locations of wells in Dodge County (point feature), 
            downloaded in 2001.  For more information about the County Well 
            Index, contact the Minnesota Geological Survey.
associated dbase table:
 cwistrat.dbf - geological descriptions used for this project.  Relate to the
            cwiwells shapefile using uniq_id.

Division of Lands and Minerals, Mineral Potential Unit data:
shapefiles:
 agg02ln3 - aggregate potential, contacts between mapping units (line feature)
 agg02py3 - aggregate potential - sand and gravel and surficial geology, polygons 
            (i.e., mapping units)
 cs02xpy3 - aggregate potential - crushed stone, polygons (i.e., mapping units)
 fieldobs - field observations of various types made in the fall of 2000 and during 
            the summer and fall of 2001 (point feature).
 gvl_pits - gravel pit locations mapped from a number of sources (point feature).
 rx_pile - rock piles observed in the field.
 sgeoxln3 - surficial geology, landform line symbols (those landforms that were
            too small to be mapped as polygons).
associated dbase table, for use with gvl_pits shapefile:
 dotqual.dbf - quality data from MN/DOT pit sheets.  Relate on the sourcexx field 
            in dotqual.dbf and the asis field in gvl_pits.
associated dbase table, for use in conjunction with fieldobs shapefile
 sieve.dbf - sieve data based on samples from field observations.  


Arc export files are included for agg02ne3 and cs02xpy3.  After using the import 
command, these two coverages can be used in Arc/INFO (created in Arc 8.0.2), 
ArcGIS 8.x, Arcview 3.x, ArcExplorer, and other GIS software packages that can 
import Arc export files. 

Documentation of these shapefiles can be found on this CD under the docs
aubdirectory.
