IMPLEMENTATION OF A WEB-ACCESSIBLE DATABASE OF HELLS CANYON (WASHINGTON, IDAHO, OREGON) PETROGRAPHIC AND GEOCHEMICAL DATA


STUTZMAN, Tamara J., HEINS, William A. and VALLIER, Tracy, Division of Natural Sciences, Lewis-Clark State College, 500 8th Ave, Lewiston, ID 83501, jean0546@go.com

The Division of Natural Sciences at Lewis-Clark State College is compiling a georeferenced database of hand samples, and petrographic and geochemical data collected from Hells Canyon by Vallier. This database is now accessible via the World Wide Web (http://cascade.lcsc.edu/hells_canyon/), as a resource for researchers in the canyon. The database currently contains information about 600 samples, with fields for latitude and longitude, stratigraphic unit, data source, rock name, Munsell color, rock texture, grain-size distribution, and modal mineralogy. The database may be queried on any combination of attributes. Future development of the database will include chemical data, and query from a map interface.
