Summary
The Cleomedes quadrangle is broadly divisible into three provinces. First, the north half of Mare Crisium dominates the southern part of the area. Second, terra materials occur in concentric bands that alternate with mare or plains forming materials in the northern part. These bands are interrupted by the crater Cleomedes whose associated materials dominate the northwest part of the map and form the third provence.

Digitized 1:1,000,000-scale geologic map of the LAC-44 Cleomedes region of the Moon. Originally mapped on Lunar Base Chart USAF-ACIC imagery. The scanned map sheet was imported into ArcMap and georeferenced to the more current 2013 global WAC mosaic basemap. Contacts and geologic units were digitized and attributed based on type and unit name.
