The Carbon Storage Site Mapping Inquiry Tool (MapIT) database (formerly the Class VI Data Support Tool Geodatabase) consists of a geodatabase and data catalog of geologic, geophysical, structural, hydrologic, and contextual data, based on the data types described in the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Underground Injection Control (UIC) Class VI permit documentation. The database was aggregated from publicly available data across the USA from state and federal resources such as the US Geologic Survey, State Geologic Surveys, EPA, and the US DOE NETL Energy Data eXchange. The database is structured by categories including rock unit geology, boundaries, national CS datasets, geophysical data, faults and structural data, infrastructure, surface hydrology, groundwater, and more.

The MapIT database serves only as a data exploration resource to support characterization of geologic carbon storage areas of interest and does not replace or replicate resources available from the EPA UIC Class VI program. Please review the official EPA UIC site to access resources related to the Class VI permitting process.

The data described in the data catalog will be available in the Carbon Storage Site Mapping Inquiry Tool (MapIT) to be released in June 2024.

Version 3 of the geodatabase and data catalog have been updated as of 5/17/2024. The database was published with a limited number of layers. The Catalog V3 contains many more resources than the geodatabase, documenting all layers that will be included in MapIT, and includes links to the original sources of the data. Within the catalog, in the final column, there is information about if the file is included in the geodatabase or not. Use the links provided in the catalog to download data directly from the original source if not included in the geodatabase.

Four resources are included in this submission:

1. Geodatabase

2. ReadMe file

3. Catalog of data layers and additional data resources

4. Web link to a resource describing the motivation and reviewing the content of the geodatabase - DOE NETL Carbon Storage Site Mapping Inquiry Tool Database
