This data provides access to an Esri polygon shapefile containing the most current information for surface coal mines in Indiana, as provided by
personnel of the Indiana Department of Natural Resources, Division of Reclamation.
The following is excerpted from the metadata provided by IDNR, Division of Reclamation, for the source point feature class named "SURFACE_AFFECTED":
"Coal_Mine_Surface_DNR_IN is a composite of all surface mine locations in Indiana. It was compiled by the Indiana Geological Survey
(IGS) as part of a contract deliverable for the Abandoned Mine Lands program of the Indiana Department of Natural Resources, Division
of Reclamation. Coal_Mine_Surface_DNR_IN incorporates surface mine locations compiled by the IGS in the early 1980s with contemporary
mine outlines digitized from affected-area maps collected from the Indiana Department of Natural Resources, Division of Reclamation
and maps collected from the Indiana Bureau of Mines. Original source information for Coal_Mine_Surface_DNR_IN includes company mine
maps, field maps and notes of IGS Geologists, IGS publications, several series of aerial photographs, and U.S. Geological Survey
7.5-minute quadrangle maps. All mine data included in Coal_Mine_Surface_DNR_IN are organized in a GIS using ArcGIS software of the
Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI) on the Windows platform. Scale of source data ranges from 1:4,800 to 1:100,000.
Coal_Mine_Surface_DNR_IN includes attributes which allow the mine polygons to be differentiated based on mine number, source information,
and dates of mining." |

<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><P><SPAN>COAL_MINE_SURFACE_DNR_IN.SHP provides the locations of all documented surface coal mines that have operated in the coal region of Indiana since the mid-1880s, up to December 31, 2016. COAL_MINE_SURFACE_DNR_IN.SHP is attributed with mine number (IDNR), map number (IDNR), start dates, and end dates. The following is excerpted from the metadata provided by IDNR, Division of Reclamation, for the source point feature class named "SURFACE_AFFECTED": "Coal_Mine_Surface_DNR_IN is a polygon-based ESRI ArcGIS shapefile that shows the location and extent of surface coal mines in the coal region of west-central and southwestern Indiana. Coal_Mine_Surface_DNR_IN includes mine locations from documented surface mines that operated in Indiana since the late 1800s. Coal_Mine_Surface_DNR_IN is attributed to allow the mine polygons to be differentiated based on mine number, source information, and dates of mining.</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV> |
