The Clark County 'Dirt' Map: Only 16.5 months in the making....1.5 months to go.

Despite combining this monsterous map with just a few other mapping 'efforts' this thing may actually get finished! 

 
Note that this is the generalized version. Still working on the detailed version. Will be describing this project and the value of 'supervised Crowd-sourcing for rapid geologic map development' at the Digital Mapping Techniques workshop in Sacramento next Monday.

State of the Map: Clark County, NV

Again, significant progress to report. Thanks to Dirt Mapping team
co-leader Heather Green for keeping things in line while I panic about
too many other projects.

Clark County Seven Ways

An example of the array of base imagery that we are using to build the
surficial geologic map of the county. Some look far better (and some
far worse) at larger scale.
