Description
Abstract
LANDSURVEY_SECTIONS_LINE_IN is a 1:24,000-scale line shapefile
with a projection of Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) North American
Datum (NAD) 1983 zone 16, defining the land survey lines of Indiana.
Purpose
This shapefile was created as a framework layer defining the
land survey lines of Indiana in line format. The information is
intended for geographic display or analysis at a scale of 1:24,000 or
smaller.
Supplementary Information
This shapefile was derived from a predecessor coverage named "IN_LANDSURVEY." IN_LANDSURVEY is a
digital representation of land survey features as represented on the USGS 1:24,000 digital raster
graphic (DRG) series. ESRI ArcEdit 8.1 and ESRI ArcView 3.2 were used to extract the following shapefiles
from IN_LANDSURVEY:
LANDSURVEY_COUNTY_LINE_IN, LANDSURVEY_COUNTY_POLY_IN, LANDSURVEY_SECTIONS_LINE_IN, LANDSURVEY_SECTIONS_POLY_IN,
LANDSURVEY_STATE_LINE_IN, LANDSURVEY_STATE_POLY_IN, LANDSURVEY_TOWNSHIPS_LINE_IN, and LANDSURVEY_TOWNSHIPS_POLY_IN.
NOTE -- This shapefile is identical to a version named "INDIANA_LANDSURVEY_24K_IGS_L".
This metadata file is a copy of the metadata for "INDIANA_LANDSURVEY_24K_IGS_L" that has had minor edits.
The shapefile and metadata were renamed to conform to a file-naming convention for a project funded
outside the IGS.
