Arcs are given arc attributes to identify the different line types. The attributing is as described in the arc attribute table. This edit of nvgeol created the coverage nvfault3, which contains the dangling arc for the coverage. The changes and additional coverages have not been completely proofed. One problem identified is inconsistency in the direction of digitization so the thrust faults are not consistently symbolized when plotted. This can be fixed by selecting the lines and flipping them in ARCEDIT. In addition, this edit caused many polygons to be split and thus, required the addition of new labels. This proofing has been done minimally.

FMATN = formation name: formation symbol, age, and lithology for the Nevada geologic map derives from the nvgeol.tbl prepared by Kathy Connors. In datafile, nvgeol.aat, NVLVTYPE = line attribute. Zero (0) is for nonprinting lines that were added for ARC/INFO and plotter limitations. One (1) is for a contact. Six (6) is for a fault. The faults are scanned versions so dashed and dotted faults are short arcs. Only those faults with the same lithology on both sides are currently tagged. NVLNTYPE can be used with plotter.lin to give appropriate plotting lines.
