MnModel Surficial Geology Landscape Model, Minnesota

The MnModel Surficial Geology Landscape Model (LANDMOD) is the product of the MnModel Phase 4 project's mosaicking of DNR-, MGS-, and MnDOT-derived regional and local surficial geology and geomorphic models. <br/><br/>No single data source covered the entire state at a scale (<1:100,000) meaningful to the MnModel project. Different models have been edge-matched where needed. Each of the mosaicked portions were categorized into the following list of data fields: Region, Region Name, Subregion, Subregion Name, Landscape, Landform, and Mantle. Some reinterpretations at and near boundaries with adjoining model segments were made to provide for a more logical transition at the mosaicked seams.
