Abstract
This polygon data layer represents railroads for Colorado in 2003. The dataset was originally published by the Colorado Department of Transportation on December 31, 2003.[Features in this dataset represent railroad lines. Features are represented by polyline (linear) geographic shapes.]
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. [Used for general reference, geoprocessing, and cartography]
Supplemental Information
Augmented original metadata with AGSL specific elements. For official metadata contact the resource Point of Contact. Also see STATE_META_Railroad.html.
