Abstract

This project is to understand the boundary between the Mt. Scott granite and the Mt Sheridan gabbro as it continuous across the Wichita Mountains. To help understand this boundary we are using ArcGIS Pro and reading previous research done in this area. To gather more information and new data ArcGIS Pro is used for making maps of the contact and making contour maps. With these maps we can understand the surface geometries and make interpretations of geologic significance.
