The results were published as a large 80- by 50-cm color folio (U.S. Geological Survey and others, 1987). The 75-page document consists of maps as well as descriptive and interpretive text in English and Spanish covering physiographic, geologic, geochemical, geophysical, and mineral site themes as well as a mineral-resource assessment. The following maps are present in the original folio: 1) Physiographic base map at a scale of 1:500,000 with hypsography, place names, and drainage. 2) Geologic map at a scale of 1:500,000. 3) Regional geophysical maps, including gravity, aeromagnetic, and seismicity maps at various scales. 4) Mineral sites map at a scale of 1:500,000 showing mines, prospects, and occurrences. 5) Volcanological framework of the Tilarán region important for epithermal gold deposits at a scale of 1:100,000. 6) Rock sample locations, mining areas, and vein locations for several parts of the country. 7) Permissive areas delineated for selected mineral deposit types. 8) Digital elevation model. This CD-ROM contains most of the above maps; it lacks items 1 and 8 and the seismicity and aeromagnetic maps of item 3. Purpose: Conversion of the information from the original folio to a computerized digital format was undertaken to facilitate the presentation and analysis of earth-science data. Digital maps can be displayed at any scale or projection, whereas a paper map has a fixed scale and projection. However, most of the maps on this disc are not intended to be used at any scale more detailed than 1:500,000.

Conversion from GSMAP to ARC/INFO was accomplished through the use of the GSMARC program (Green and Selner, 1988). The arcs and polygons were tagged using Alacarte (Wentworth and Fitzgibbon, 1991).
