This federal Cooperative Agreement award, funded by the U.S. Geological Survey's National Cooperative Geologic Mapping Program (CFDA 15.810), provides $243,056 to the State of Maryland Department of Natural Resources (MD DNR) to conduct detailed geological mapping and digital database development across Maryland's Piedmont and Coastal Plain regions. The 2-year project period runs from October 1, 2024 to September 30, 2026.

The key products and services to be delivered under this award include: 1) Detailed field mapping and data collection to characterize the geology of Maryland's Piedmont and Coastal Plain areas, including identifying lithologic units, structural features, and hydrogeologic characteristics; 2) Development of digital geologic maps and a GEMS-compliant database that will be publicly released through the MD DNR website; and 3) Collaboration with state, federal, municipal, and local agencies to support planning, zoning, infrastructure development, and hazard identification activities utilizing the new geologic data. This project builds upon prior geological mapping efforts conducted by the Maryland Geological Survey and will provide critical geospatial information to a range of government and private sector beneficiaries across Maryland.
