These data are in a Lambert Conformal Conic projection and coordinate units are feet. Tabular data for polygons include quadrangle name, USGS map designation code, and DNR designation code. Each quad is annotated with its name. Tabular data for the arcs include latitude or longitude in decimal degrees. This data set was created to serve as base map information.
Data are appropriate for use at a regional scale and are intended as a reference.
Data are not appropriate as a geodetic or engineering base. Tics have been added at every quadrangle corner. Vertices have been added to every arc at 1.5' intervals to reduce shape changes due to projection of the data. Annotation for the map name has been added. All character item values are now in upper case to conform with other data sets in this suite.
