The State of Alaska funded this work as a component of the ASTAR project. We appreciate the hours of work conducted by our intern, Alex Terry, sorting and scanning the original field documents. The collective DGGS ASTAR work supports a collaborative effort between the North Slope Borough and the Department of Natural Resources to strengthen community infrastructure and facilitate access to arctic resources while enhancing the quality of life and economic opportunities for North Slope communities. It also provides valuable information for land-use management and planning decisions. Concurrent work to identify and catalog corresponding geologic materials samples was funded by the USGS National Geological and Geophysical Data Preservation Program (NGGDPP) awards G15AP00147 and G17AP00063.
In 2018, DGGS joined the Department of Natural Resources and the North Slope Borough Arctic Strategic Transportation and Resources (ASTAR) project. DGGS initiated significant work to use historic and newly acquired geologic and geospatial data to evaluate sand and gravel resources across the North Slope. To support this research, we scanned the 1980-1987 project field notes and reformatted published source data into digital files optimized for visualization and data analysis using ArcGIS software.
