The State of Alaska funded this work through the Arctic Strategic Transportation and Resources (ASTAR) Capital Improvements project. The U.S. Bureau of Land Management provided additional funding and support through an Alaska NPR-A Resource Inventory and Database Development Grant (L18AC00019). We greatly appreciate Amber Rhodes, Brayton Keith, Zach Spath, Kjol Johnson, and Tyler Stokes for their time and effort in reviewing samples and entering data. Tyler Stokes spent countless hours photographing samples and correcting sample label metadata against the USGS shotline and shothole dataset. We thank Jean Riordan, Kurt Johnson, and Chris Ramey for supporting the GMC database and retrieving the samples. Additionally, we thank Anthony T. Gallagher for building the initial database, and Susan Seitz and Michael Hendricks for their guidance on database design.
This dataset supports discoverability and reuse of historical seismic shothole records from NPR-A. It provides photographs of drill cards and geologic samples and transcribed driller notes from approximately 26,000 shothole sites drilled between 1974 and 1981 to facilitate identification of sand and gravel resources and planning for infrastructure development on the North Slope.
