collectionCategories	Geological mapping data (Geological mapping data, http://www.sciencebase.gov/vocab/category/NGGDPP/collection/category)
collectionGrowth	More records will be added to this collection as people retire and studies are completed.
collectionTypes	Geological (Geological, http://www.sciencebase.gov/vocab/category/NGGDPP/collection/type)
neededImprovements	Many of these preliminary work records are used because there are still people at the IGS with institutional memory of their creators or collectors. If the records are not more thoroughly documented they will lose their value over time. They need to be more thoroughly examined by a professional geologist to decipher how or if they should be preserved and in what format.
