Funding for the USGIN initiative provided by the National Science Foundation under NSF award number EAR-0753154, as part of the INTEROP initiative. The USGIN initiative is managed by the Arizona Geological Survey (AZGS) on behalf of the Association of American State Geologists (AASG). Some USGIN documents and products were developed for use by the National Geothermal Data System (NGDS), which is powered by USGIN; these materials are supported by the Department of Energy under grants EE-0002850 and EE-0001120 awarded to the AASG and Boise State University, respectively.
