STATEMAP component of the National Cooperative Geologic Mapping Program

STATEMAP component of the National Cooperative Geologic Mapping Program is a federal grant from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) that funds state-led geologic mapping initiatives across the country. The program's primary objective is to establish the geologic framework of areas vital to the economic, social, or scientific welfare of individual states and the nation.

Funded projects support mapping priorities determined by State Geological Surveys in consultation with multidisciplinary State Mapping Advisory Committees. Eligibility is limited to State Geological Surveys as established by the National Geologic Mapping Act; universities may apply on behalf of state surveys organized within a university system.

Applicants must commit to a 1:1 match of total direct costs and may request no more than 18% in federal indirect costs. A qualifying State Mapping Advisory Committee meeting at least annually is required.
