Preliminary composite magnetic anomaly map of part of the Northwestern United States

The magnetic anomaly data open-filed in this report represent part of a much larger data set covering most of the conterminous United States. The anomaly map consists of 10 sheets covering an area in the northwestern United States. These were prepared primarily from existing aeromagnetic data, and secondarily from ground data, the latter located primarily in North Dakota and South Dakota.

Preliminary aeromagnetic map of the Charlotte 1 x 2 degree quadrangle, North Carolina, South Carolina

The aeromagnetic map of the Charlotte 1 x 2 degree quadrangle was assembled by 6 individual detailed aeromagnetic surveys flown between 1956 and 1976 (see index map). The International Geomagnetic Reference Field had been subtracted from the data prior to assembly. An arbitrary common datum was selected and the surveys were recontoured at the joins. The 100 gamma contour was selected because it shows the magnetic contrast to best advantage. To complement the magnetic data a gravity survey was conducted by the U.S. Geological Survey and this data is available in a companion map (Wilson and Daniels, in press). Each of these maps has been interpreted in relation to the other and to the geologic map prepared as part of the same program (Goldsmith and others, 1978). It should be noted that the geophysics has had a measurable influence on some of the geologic mapping.
