    • Geothermal Favorability Map Derived From Logistic Regression Models (favorabilitysurface.zip)

    Metadata Updated: January 22, 2026

    This is a surface showing relative favorability for the presence of geothermal systems in the western United States. It is an average of 12 models that correlates different geological and geophysical factors to the known presence of moderate (90 - 150° C) to high (> 150° C) temperature geothermal systems. as discussed in the reference in the 'Larger Work' section of this metadata file. The data is represented as a polygon contour file as well as a raster.
