Map service: National Assessment of Oil and Gas - Florida Peninsula Province (050), Gulf Coast

Description

A geographic information system focusing on the South Florida Basin was developed for the U.S. Geological Survey's (USGS) 2000 assessment of undiscovered, technically recoverable oil and natural gas resources in the Gulf Coast Region. The USGS Energy Resources Science Center has developed map and metadata services to deliver the 2000 assessment results GIS data and services online. The Gulf Coast assessment is based on geologic elements of a total petroleum system (TPS) as described in Pollastro, R.M. and Schenk, C.J. (2001). The estimates of undiscovered oil and gas resources are within assessment units (AUs). The hydrocarbon assessment units include the assessment results as attributes within the AU polygon feature class (in geodatabase and shapefile format). Quarter-mile cells of the land surface that include single or multiple wells were created by the USGS to illustrate the degree of exploration and the type and distribution of production in the South Florida Basin. Other data that are available in the map documents and services include the TPS and USGS province boundaries.
