Translate a Digital Map With GeMS, Part C1
Translate a Digital Map With GeMS, Part C1 - How to load map unit polygons, lines, and cross section data from another schema to GeMS.
The Geologic Map Schema (GeMS) defines a standard database schema — a database design — for digital publication of geologic maps. This tutorial is one of six originally presented as part of a short course at the 2021 Northeastern Section Meeting of the Geological Society of America by Ralph Haugerud, USGS, on how to use ArcMap and custom tools to create GeMS-compliant ArcGIS file geodatabases.
