U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service April 1, 2012 vector digital data Washington, D.C. U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Branch of Habitat Assessment http://www.fws.gov/wetlands/ This data set represents the extent, status, and location of current NWI riparian mapping projects. The present goal of the Service is to provide the citizens of the United States and its Trust Territories with current geospatially referenced information on the status and extent of riparian mapping. Comments regarding the interpretation or classification of wetlands or deepwater habitats can be directed to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service: wetlands_team@fws.gov These spatial data are not designed to stand alone. They form topical overlays to the U.S. Geological Survey 1:24,000 or 1:25,000 scale topographic quadrangles. Any use of trade, product, or firm names is for descriptive purposes only and does not imply endorsement by the U.S. Government. Although this Federal Geographic Data Committee-compliant metadata file is intended to document the data set in nonproprietary form, as well as in Arc/INFO format, this metadata file may include some Arc/INFO-specific terminology. 1977 present ground condition Ongoing In Continuous Increments -127.887285 -65.345793 51.604786 22.940233 REQUIRED: Reference to a formally registered thesaurus or a similar authoritative source of theme keywords.

EMULSION Emulsion type of the imagery used to delineate wetlands. IMAGE_SCALE The best image scale used for wetland delineation represented by the representative fraction (RF) denominator or a generalization of ground resolution for digital imagery (0 = unknown, 1 = < = equal to 1 meter, 2 = > 1 and <= 2 meters, 3 = > 2 < = 3 meters. SHAPE Feature geometry. ESRI Coordinates defining the features. ALL_SCALES All the image scales or resolutions of the imagery used for delineating the wetlands IMAGE_TYPE The best imagery emulsion type from all the types used to delineate the wetlands for a given project area. The order of hierarchy from best to worst is CIR for Color Infrared, TC for Natural or True color, BW for Black and White, and Unknown GLOBALID SHAPE_Length Length of feature in internal units. ESRI Positive real numbers that are automatically generated. SHAPE_Area Area of feature in internal units squared. ESRI Positive real numbers that are automatically generated.
