Description: This dataset is all of the sinholes and depressions that originated from the SSURGO spot data, and has been updated using LiDAR and historic photography to capture all known and historic sinkholes. Points that do not have a KPolyID are historic locations, whereas those that do have a KPolyID are currently expressed on the landscape. If a point has a KPolyID, the KPolyID links to the same field in the sinkhole_polys coverage. If the KPolyID is empty the sinkhole is an historic sinkhole and does not show up in the LiDAR data.

Description: This dataset is a polygon coverage of the sinhole boundaries as determined by using LiDAR data. The polygons relate to the point coverage using the KPolyID field in both coverages.
If a point has a KPolyID, the KPolyID links to the same field in the sinkhole_polys coverage. If the KPolyID is empty the sinkhole is an historic sinkhole and does not show up in the LiDAR data.

Description: This coverage contains a raster representing areas within 1000 feet of known sinkholes and other areas that have carbonate bedrock within 50 feet of the ground surface.
