The layers listed below are present as ArcGIS shape files. Attribute information for the following layers (entities) is included in this metadata file under the "Entity_and_Attribution_Information" section. Each layer is listed and described in detail under its own heading starting "Entity_Type_Label." Layers include:
>HeatFlow_points: geothermal gradient test hole
>Hotsprings_points: hotsprings
>ThermalH2O_poly: potential exploration area for geothermal resources
>VolcanicRocks: Quaternary or Quaternary-Tertiary volcanic rocks
>VolcanicVents_points: volcanic vents
