Legend: colours and patterns

How each lithology code is drawn.

The Legend fold open beside the lithology column, with the patterns note and the legend download and load outlined

  1. FGDC patterns: The patterns are the US Federal Geographic Data Committee’s geologic map standard (public domain): 601-686 sedimentary, 701-733 metamorphic, igneous and vein rocks.
  2. First guesses: Each code’s pattern and colour are guessed from its description (granite, tuff, limestone …). A code with no match gets a plain colour.
  3. Your legend: Download the legend as CSV, change any COLOUR (#RRGGBB) or FGDC_PATTERN number, and load it back. Your choices replace the guesses.
