Abstract
Geologic Mapping Forum (GMF) abstracts for the years of 2024 and 2025.
Description
The Geologic Mapping Forum (GMF) in Minneapolis in 2018 and 2019 was attended by ~100 geological map authors, program managers and allied professionals from geological surveys and associated agencies, who met to discuss the status and future of geological mapping in the USA.
Due to the coronavirus pandemic, the 2020 Geologic Mapping Forum planned for April 7th to 9th, 2020, was not held. It therefore was decided that GMF Online would be held as meetings of about two hours duration on Thursdays at Noon Central, about once per month, from early autumn until spring, in 20/21, 21/22, 22/23, 23/24, and 24/25. A similar format is planned for 2025/2026.
Plans also were made for a September 2025 in-person meeting in Minneapolis, similar to the 2018 and 2019 meetings, but this was called off. Early plans for an in-person meeting in Denver in 2026 will be revisited in early 2026.
The intended GMF audience is geological map authors and program managers, and the focus is geology rather than funding or GIS, which are better covered by other meetings.
Optional abstracts for the 20-minute invited talks were requested and are presented here.
