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. [To aid the Federal Government's purpose of promoting geographic feature name standardization. The names listed in the inventory can be published on Federal maps, charts, and in other documents.]
Supplemental Information
Augmented original metadata with AGSL specific elements. For official metadata contact the resource Point of Contact.
