USGS Small-scale Dataset - Federal Land Features of the United States - Parkways and Scenic Rivers 200606 Shapefile
Dataset Identification:
Resource Abstract:
This map layer portrays the linear federally-owned land features (i.e., national parkways, wild and scenic rivers, etc.) of
the United States, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. The map layer was created by extracting linear federal land features
from the 1:2,000,000-scale individual State DLG files produced by the U.S. Geological Survey. These files were then merged
into a single map layer. This is a revised version of the September 2005 map layer.
