National Atlas of the United States 200512 WY_Wilderness_Boundaries Reston, VA National Atlas of the United States http://nationalatlas.gov/atlasftp.html WY_Wilderness_Boundaries vector digital data This map layer consists of National Wilderness Preservation System areas of 640 acres or more, in Wyoming. The map layer was created by extracting these wilderness areas from the National Atlas map layer: Federal Lands of the United States. This is a replacement for the December 2004, map layer. These data are intended for geographic display and analysis at the national level, and for large regional areas. The data should be displayed and analyzed at scales appropriate for 1:2,000,000-scale data. No responsibility is assumed by the National Atlas of the United States in the use of these data. en 1972 2005 ground condition Complete Irregular 170 -64 72 17 -111.047844 -106.300522 40.999389 45.003883 ISO 19115 Topic Category Boundaries Biota None Federal lands Wilderness Wilderness Areas National Wilderness Preservation System Bureau of Land Management Forest Service Fish and Wildlife Service National Park Service BLM FS FWS NPS ISO 19115 Topic Category Biota Boundaries Environment None USA United States U.S. Department of Commerce, 1995, Countries, Dependencies, Areas of Special Sovereignty, and Their Principal Administrative Divisions (Federal Information Processing Standard 10-4): Washington, DC, National Institute of Standards and Technology.

Missoula MT 59087 406-542-4195 dspildie@fs.fed.us ESRI ArcCatalog 9.3.1.3500 Shapefile Using ESRI's Arc/INFO GIS software, the map layer was checked for label errors, dangling nodes, and intersections. Polygon topology was built using the BUILD command. This map layer includes National Wilderness Preservation System areas for all fifty of the United States, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Included are features of 640 acres (one square mile) or more. Generally, features under this size are not shown.

Attributes for feature type, feature name, agency ownership, URL, State, and State FIPS codes were retained. Adjacent wilderness areas having the same feature type and name, agency ownership, and URL were merged. State attributes of the merged wilderness areas were then updated. Label points were created for polygons having no label points; they were then assigned a Non-Wilderness value. withheld 200509 Metadata imported. withheld 20101001 15055300 Dataset copied. withheld 20101001 15094700 Dataset copied. withheld 20120124 14030700 Vector Simple FALSE 0 TRUE FALSE 0.000278 0.000278 Decimal degrees North American Datum of 1983 GRS1980 6378137 298.257222 GCS_North_American_1983 WY_WA_WSA_merge Areas of 640 acres or more established by the Wilderness Act of 1964.
