Summary
This digital publication, GPR 2011-4, contains Fugro Airborne Surveys' analysis and interpretation of data produced from airborne geophysical surveys published by DGGS in 2011 (GPR 2011-2) of the Iditarod survey area. Fugro Airborne Surveys' frequency-domain DIGHEM V system was used for the EM data. GPR 2011-4 includes (1) Fugro's project report with interpretation and detailed EM Anomalies in tabular format, (2) Multi-channel stacked profiles in pdf format, and (3) interpretation and em anomalies are each provided as Geotiffs and maps. The document gpr2011_004_readme (.txt and .pdf) lists all files included in this publication. Other supporting files include gpr2011-4_browsegraphic.pdf, gpr2011-4_emanomaly_readme.pdf.

The airborne data were acquired and processed under contract between the State of Alaska, Department of Natural Resources, Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys (DGGS), and Fugro GeoServices, Inc. Fugro Airborne Surveys, the subcontractor, acquired and processed the data in 2010 and 2011.
DGGS geophysics datasets are typically compilations of multiple digital data file formats. These formats may include: GeoTiff, ESRI shapefile, Geosoft binary grid (GRD), Microsoft Office documents, PDF, ER Mapper ERS, ASCII text files (including CSV), Geosoft ASCII grid (GXF), Geosoft database, AutoCAD DXF, Geosoft plot file (PLT), Printer files (HPP, PRN, or other), digital images (multiple formats), digital video (multiple formats), Geosoft ASCII XYZ, Geosoft ASCII files (PLY, i0, EXP), and KMZ
The survey was part of the Alaska Airborne Geophysical/Geological Mineral Inventory project funded by the Alaska State Legislature and managed by State of Alaska, Department of Natural Resources (DNR), Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys (DGGS). The project seeks to catalyze private-sector mineral development investment. The project delineates mineral zones on Alaska state lands that: 1) have major economic value; 2) can be developed in the short term to provide high quality jobs for Alaska; and 3) will provide economic diversification to help offset the loss of Prudhoe Bay oil revenue.
