value of geologic maps
valuable tool we have for understanding and living
with the Earth around us. Their usefulness is so broad
that geologic maps are the most requested scientific product
produced by state and federal geological surveys. Kentucky’s
experience with geologic maps exemplifies their value and
utility.
