Lines were gathered from theses, dissertations, and publications. Purpose: The data was generated to help in understanding the seismotectonic hazards in the vicinity of the lower Wabash Valley.

Type_of_Source_Media: paper Process_Step: Process_Description: Latitude and longitude data for end points of lines B1 to B8 were generated from a 200% blow-up of Figure 10, an index map at 1:3.6 million, from Baldwin (1980). Refraction sources were located at 5 coal strip mines. Lengths and vectors of the lines were estimated from the mine sources on the index map and plotted on a 1:100,000 topographic map. End points of lines HLD and HLB were digitized from Figure 8 in Heigold and Larson (1994). refrac_all was clipped to the published map boundary to create refrac.
