[QUOTE="user 4386, post: 643183, member: 4386"] Hi - fiststly do you mean geological maps in general or is GEO the name of a software package or file type? If the former I usually try to assist but that is a bit too broad. The problem being that it is a map depiction of scientific data, and unless one has some understanding of the science it would require too much explanation. The best thing is to ask a specific question about something you are interested in that appears on a map. or show a small map of an area that you are interested in and ask what it is saying about the geology. With hundreds of rock types, thousands of minerals and the 3D issues of geological structure it is just too big a field otherwise. Too many combinations and permutations can occur on geological maps in general to discuss them all, but only a few appear on any limited area on a specific map. If the latter I am probably stating the obvious - teaching grandma to suck eggs. [/QUOTE]
