Funding for this geophysical survey data compilation was provided by U.S. Bureau of Land Management, Alaska Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys' (DGGS) Airborne Geophysical/Geological Mineral Inventory (AGGMI) program, and the Alaska Strategic and Critical Minerals Assessment Capital Improvement Project. The geophysical surveys were managed by State of Alaska, Department of Natural Resources (DNR), Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys (DGGS). The survey data were collected, processed, and/or managed by Burns, Laurel E., Stephens, Mark, Stevens Exploration Management Corp., Fugro Airborne Surveys Corp., Fugro GeoServices, Inc., CGG, Emond, A.M., Barefoot, J.B., and Graham, G.R.C. These merged grids were generated as part of the Fox Hills data collection contract.

This electromagnetic and magnetic airborne geophysical survey data compilation is a product of the Alaska Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys' (DGGS) Airborne Geophysical/Geological Mineral Inventory (AGGMI) program and the Alaska Strategic and Critical Minerals Assessment Capital Improvement Project. The goal of the Alaska Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys' (DGGS) Airborne Geophysical/Geological Mineral Inventory (AGGMI) program is to enhance the understanding of Alaska's mineral resources and stimulate private-sector mineral development. The program seeks to delineate mineral zones on Alaska State lands that: (1) have major economic value; (2) can be developed in the short term to provide high-quality jobs for Alaskans; and (3) will provide economic diversification to help offset the loss of Prudhoe Bay oil revenue. Candidate lands for this program are identified on the basis of existing geologic knowledge, land ownership, and nominations from Alaska's geologic community. The AGGMI program and resulting new geologic knowledge are recognized worldwide and have encouraged millions of dollars of venture capital expenditures in the local economies of the surveyed mining districts. These venture capital expenditures have led to discovery and delineation of new mineral resources. The multi-year Strategic and Critical Minerals Assessment Capital Improvement Project (SCMA) was established to determine Alaska's geologic potential for rare-earth elements and other minerals that are essential for our modern, technology-based society. This program began in FY2012 with a data survey and compilation of existing information on rare-earth-element occurrences in Alaska, and expanded significantly in FY2013 to include additional critical minerals, re-analyses of existing samples, and obtaining new field and analytical data, including airborne geophysics.

All originating data met contract specifications with a few exceptions due to difficult operational conditions. These exceptions did not noticeably impact data quality. Additional detail about contract specifications and operational issues can be found in the metadata of the originating surveys.
All originating data were positioned by DGPS (Differential Global Positioning System) with an accuracy of 5 meters or better.
Helicopter and fixed wing geophysical surveys often have small data gaps that do not negatively impact the overall quality of the final products. Reference the metadata for each originating survey for specific details.
These data originate from multiple similar geophysical surveys with different specifications. Reference the metadata of each originating survey for exact specifications.
