Abstract
[This dataset represents the Lake Michigan Circle Tour route in ESRI shapefile format. It was created in 2007 from the descriptions of the route on the WisconsinHighways.org, MichiganHighways.org, and Great Lakes Information Network Lake Michigan Circle Tour (http://www.great-lakes.net/tourism/circletour/michigan/#road)web sites . The dataset was created by downloading TIGER 2000 files from the ESRI and extracting the Circle Tour route.]
Purpose
This layer is intended for reference and mapping purposes, and may be used for basic applications such as viewing, querying, and map output production, or to provide a basemap to support graphical overlays and analysis with other spatial data. [The purpose of the dataset is to include the Great Lakes Circle Tour route as part of Wisconsin's Great Lakes Circle Tour -- Coastal Access Guide (http://www.aqua.wisc.edu/glct/). The intention is to share the data set with others in the region through the Great Lakes Information Network GIS (http://gis.glin.net/).]
Supplemental Information
