OpenStreetMap railroads for the Cascadia Partner Forum Geography
Dataset Identification:
Resource Abstract:
This map service and the attached downloadable layer package represent OpenStreetMap (OSM) road data clipped to the Cascadia
Partner Forum geography (with a 10km buffer). The data were obtained from <a href="http://weogeo.com/data/OpenStreetMap_Data.html">WeoGeo</a>,
which converts OSM data from its native format to Esri formats (and others).  They last
updated their database on May 1st, 2014. <div> <br />"OpenStreetMap is dedicated to created and providing
geographic data, such as street maps, worldwide, for free. Most maps considered "free" actually have legal or technical
restrictions on their use. These restrictions hold back anyone from using them in creative, productive or unexpected ways,
and make every map a silo of data and effort. OSM's open license gives users the freedom to do more with map data, and helps
data providers work in mutually beneficial ways." <br /> </div>
