Dataset

Statement

1. Existing published or unpublished geological maps were georeferenced.

2. Fault traces identified on these maps were digitised.

3. Characteristics such as locational accuracy, exposure and fault type were captured from the source map where this information was available and were recorded as a GeoSciML compliant table of attributes

4. Data checked for logical consistency.

GeoMAP v.202208 supercedes an earlier beta version (v.2019-07) made available at the XIII International Symposium on Antarctic Earth Sciences (ISAES), Incheon, Republic of Korea 22-26

July 2019.

This release v.2022-08 updates and corrects the dataset following informal feedback and peer review, and/or improves local areas with more attention to detail.
