ATA faults (v.2019-07)

This layer is the fault data for Antarctica. It represents a synthesis of existing published and unpublished mapping of the geological faults in this area in a single dataset at a regional scale. These data comprise a series of arcs with each arc having attributes describing the locational accuracy, exposure, activity, type of fault, and the sense of movement of the fault, where this is known. This layer complies with the GeoSciML Lite standard for ShearDisplacementStructureView and fields required by that standard were populated using the CGI Controlled Vocabulary (v2016.01).

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 Existing published or unpublished geological maps were georeferenced.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.
