Geologic mapping is the process of creating detailed maps that illustrate the geological features of an area, including rock formations, faults, and landforms. By providing a visual representation of the Earth's surface and subsurface, geologic mapping is a crucial tool for the tech community, supporting applications such as natural resource management, environmental monitoring, and infrastructure planning, while also informing decision-making in fields like mining, construction, and disaster risk reduction.
