Description: "This User's Guide has been written to provide a basic knowledge of the Geographic Coordinate Data Base (GCDB) for Wyoming. The GCDB is being developed for the Bureau of Land Management and is mandated as the base land lines theme for all federal agency mapping and Geographic Information System (GIS) efforts. As a component of the National Spatial Data Infrastructure (NSDI), GCDB will be a common reference to the Public Land Survey System (PLSS) and greatly facilitate integration of separate GIS systems"--Page 1.
