Overall accuracy of both the geology and geologic province data sets are based on the accuracy of the general geology coverage. Original maps are traced onto mylar and scanned at a resolution of 300 dpi. The scanned images are converted to Arc GRIDs and then to Arc Vector coverages in Lambert Conformal Conic projection., The data set is a collection of ARC/INFO coverages that are topologically consistent. Color plot in 1:2,000,000 scale was superimposed on original map in 1:2,000,000 scale and any detected errors were corrected in ARC/INFO., Generalizations on geology are made from original USGS 1:2,000,000 scale Geologic map and UNESCO 1:5,000,000 scale Geologic map of Europe, Eastern sheet., 4000, Estimated maximum ground distance error in meters. A color hard copy of the Arabian Peninsula geology at 1:2,000,000 scale is superimposed onto the original Geologic Map of the Arabian Peninsula, 1:2,000,000 scale. For the Iraq portion of the Arabian Peninsula, a color hard copy of the Iraq geology at 1:5,000,000 scale is superimposed onto the original Geologic Map of Europe, Eastern sheet, 1:5,000,000 scale.
