OPEN-FILE REPORT 3-2018 ELEVATION AND THICKNESS OF THE ORDOVICIAN SIMPSON GROUP IN OKLAHOMA AND SURROUNDING STATES
Kevin D. Crain and Jefferson C. Chang INTRODUCTION This Open-File Report (OF) is the third in a series of 16 that shows shaded relief maps of the top and bottom digital elevation model (DEM) grids for stratigraphic units in Oklahoma, Kansas, and parts of Nebraska, Iowa, Missouri, Arkansas, and Texas. Isopach maps from which these DEM grids were derived are also included, along with lithofacies in some instances. Each map covers the area from 41.0 degrees to 34.5 degrees north-south and -94.0 degrees to -102.0 degrees east-west. The Open-File Reports are published as layered PDFs that contain individual map pages with map layers that can be turned on or off. They are available in PDF and GIS formats. In each of the 16 Open-File Reports, Plate 1 shows the top elevation of the unit; Plate 2 shows the bottom elevation of the unit; and Plate 3 shows the thickness of the unit. In OF 9-2018 through OF 15-2018, Plate 3 also shows the lithofacies of the unit. The lithofacies maps are taken from Rascoe and Hyne (1988) and use a simple four component carbonate-clastic binary phase diagram with vertical lithology boundaries. The colors represent the relative amount of clastics and carbonates in the rocks. Rocks with a high percentage of clastics are colored yellow, and rocks with a high percentage of carbonates are blue. DESCRIPTION OF 3-2018 shows the shaded relief map of the top (Plate 1) and bottom (Plate 2) digital elevation model (DEM) grids of the Ordovician Simpson Group rocks, as well as the unit’s thickness (Plate 3), in Oklahoma and surrounding states. METHODS Data used to create the shaded relief maps for the series of 16 Open-File Reports include:
• sixteen isopach maps from Petroleum Geology of the Mid-Continent (PGM; Rascoe and Hyne, 1988), which depict the thicknesses of sedimentary strata from the topographic surface to the crystalline basement (Table 1), and
• National Elevation Dataset (NED) surface topography Each of the sixteen PGM isopach maps were digitally scanned and georeferenced to geographic coordinates using the datum North American 1983 and later projected to the Albers Equal-Area Conic projection of the same datum. The contour lines of each isopach map were then digitized and attributed with their corresponding thickness values.
-
In some cases, the PGM isopach maps contain holes where no data is present. These discontinuities occur where (1) a unit pinches out to zero thickness or (2) a fault truncates a unit, resulting in a reduced thickness or disappearance of the unit. In these cases, the isopach used to create the DEMs was modified from the original PGM isopach to show the unit thickness as zero rather than the isopach map containing no data. The digitized isopach thickness data were then gridded and co-registered with the National Elevation Dataset (NED) topography. Starting with the shallowest stratum (Triassic and Cretaceous Systems), the isopach thickness grid was subtracted from the NED topography to get the bottom elevation grid for the shallowest stratum (Triassic and Cretaceous Systems); alluvium and terrace deposits were not factored into the model. By definition, the resultant bottom elevation grid is also the top elevation grid of the next lower stratum (Guadalupian Series). This workflow was repeated for each isopach thickness map in sequence until the top of the crystalline basement was reached. For example, the isopach thickness for the Guadalupian Series was subtracted from the top elevation grid of the Guadalupian Series to get the bottom elevation grid for the Guadalupian Series as well as the top elevation grid for the Leonardian Series. Due to the map scale, there are no elevation contours for the outcrop topography. The subcrop grid is at a scale of 30 arcseconds. INTENTION These elevation models were originally produced to visualize 3D geology and aid in geophysical research. The tops and bottoms of each unit constrain the upper and lower bounds, respectively, of the density distribution within the sedimentary strata of a regional gravity model. The data presented here may also be useful for other subsurface investigations, such as geoengineering, petrophysical, or hydrogeologic applications.
