NONEXCLUSIVE HIGH-DEFINITION AEROMAGNETIC DATA
NORTH-CENTRAL NEVADA
Since 1993 EDCON-PRJ has been flying high-definition aeromagnetic
surveys in north-central Nevada. Most of the surveys were flown with a line spacing of 200
meters, draped 150 meters above terrain. The data are being sold by 7½-minute quadrangles
at a sliding scale cost per line-mile. Quantitative geological-geophysical interpretations
of most quadrangles have been completed and are sold at a fixed price per quadrangle.
Following are the acquisition specifications of each survey, deliverable products, and
price lists. The mileage within each quadrangle is shown on the accompanying index map.
