Welcome to the Central Region Iowa State
Information Page. This site is designed to help you learn about
earth science studies underway in Iowa.
The USGS undertakes studies in water, energy, mineral, land,
and biological resources and furnished results in printed- and
digital-format maps, books, and other products. The scientific
information we provide assists in the location, management, development,
and protection of natural resources of our Nation and of other
countries in which the USGS is a cooperator. Equally important,
we supply information that helps minimize or mitigate the damage
caused by natural hazards and the damage to the environment caused
by human activities or natural processes. All Americans can benefit
from the work of the USGS.
