Description: This service depicts National Park Service tract and boundary data that was created by the Land Resources Division. NPS Director's Order #25 states: "Land status maps will be prepared to identify the ownership of the lands within the authorized boundaries of the park unit. These maps, showing ownership and acreage, are the 'official record' of the acreage of Federal and non-federal lands within the park boundaries. While these maps are the official record of the lands and acreage within the unit's authorized boundaries, they are not of survey quality and not intended to be used for survey purposes." As such this data is intended for use as a tool for GIS analysis. It is in no way intended for engineering or legal purposes. The data accuracy is checked against best available sources which may be dated and vary by location. NPS assumes no liability for use of this data. The boundary polygons represent the current legislated boundary of a given NPS unit. NPS does not necessarily have full fee ownership or hold another interest (easement, right of way, etc...) in all parcels contained within this boundary. Equivalently NPS may own or have an interest in parcels outside the legislated boundary of a given unit. In order to obtain complete information about current NPS interests both inside and outside a unit’s legislated boundary tract level polygons are also created by NPS Land Resources Division and should be used in conjunction with this boundary data. To download this data directly from the NPS go to https://irma.nps.gov/App/Portal/Home Property ownership data is compiled from deeds, plats, surveys, and other source data. These are not engineering quality drawings and should be used for administrative purposes only. The National Park Service (NPS) shall not be held liable for improper or incorrect use of the data described and/or contained herein. These data and related graphics are not legal documents and are not intended to be used as such. The information contained in these data is dynamic and may change over time. The data are not better than the original sources from which they were derived. It is the responsibility of the data user to use the data appropriately and consistent within the limitations of geospatial data in general and these data in particular. The related graphics are intended to aid the data user in acquiring relevant data; it is not appropriate to use the related graphics as data. The National Park Service gives no warranty, expressed or implied, as to the accuracy, reliability, or completeness of these data. It is strongly recommended that these data are directly acquired from an NPS server and not indirectly through other sources which may have changed the data in some way.

Description: This dataset represents the official boundary of the Wind River Indian Reservation (WRIR) as developed by the Wyoming State Engineer's Office. It is intended to be used by state agencies for any public maps that depict the reservation boundary for any official State purposes and to determine jurisdiction for regulatory agencies. The boundary is defined by separate acts of Congress that restored specific areas of land by legal land descriptions (established by treaty between the United States and the Eastern Shoshone and Bannock Tribes, 15 Stat. 673 (July 3, 1868), and diminished by the Act of December 15, 1874, Ch. 2, 18 Stat. 291, the Act of June 7, 1897, Ch. 3, 30 Stat. 62, and the Act of March 3, 1905, Ch. 1452, 33 Stat. 1016, and as subsequently restored pursuant to Acts of Congress).This dataset represents the summary of all such applicable acts which were then dissolved to create one polygon for visual representation purposes. Baseline information for the data was the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Legacy Geographic Coordinate Data Base (GCDB) which was a collection of geographic information representing the United States Public Land Survey System and other official surveys.

Description: This web layer/service contains bodies of water within Wyoming and the general trace of the continental divide, which influences hydrologic drainage patterns in the state.

Description: This data set portrays the Continental Divide of the United States. The data set was created by extracting Hydrologic Unit Boundary line features from an existing National Atlas layer. The source data are aligned with the individual 1:2,000,000-scale Digital Line Graph (DLG) hypsography files produced by the U.S. Geological Survey.
Description: The dataset is a spatial and tabular representation of water bodies in Wyoming. The intended scale of use is 1:24,000 and larger. Names were corrected and added from USGS topographic maps. Features were given water body types, attributed for their temporal nature, all available storage volumes were added, and surface areas calculated.

Description: Feature class of NHD data corrected to match stream and river names on USGS 1:100,000 scale maps. All unnamed streams removed and stream segments combined so there is one line per named stream. Streams ordered by the Strahler system based on the remaining streams (Stream_Order only includes the streams in this dataset). Streams with Stream_Order 1-6 are perennial streams. Streams that are attributed 0 are ephemeral streams.

Description: This dataset consists of the Wyoming sedimentary basins in which hydrocarbon exploration, development, and production occurs. The polygons originally delineated the K-T(Pg) boundary, but have been revised by the Wyoming State Geological Survey (WSGS) to take into account the structural uplifts that bound them, current hydrocarbon energy production techniques and locations, and subsurface geologic formations and structural features.
Description: This data set was updated in 2014 by the Wyoming State Geological Survey. Polygons were merged, description information was completed, and geologic units were converted to representations to retain unit colors and patterns.The geologic map was digitized by Green, G.N., and Drouillard, P.H., 1994, from original scribe sheets used to prepare the published 1:500,000-scale Geologic Map of Wyoming (Love and Christiansen, 1985). Stable base contact prints of the scribe sheets were scanned on a Tektronix 4991 digital scanner. The scanner automatically converts the scanned image to an ASCII vector format. These vectors were transferred to a VAX minicomputer, where they were loaded into Arc/Info. The dataset includes both linear and polygon features, with attributes derived from the original 1985 map.

Query indicates uncertainty of position of top of unit within the Pleistocene.2. Age of upper parts of uppermost Miocene units is problematic. These parts have historically been assigned to the Pliocene. Successive reductions in radiometric age of the top of the Miocene in Europe to 7 Ma (Lambert, 1971) and to 5 Ma (Berggren, 1972) place a Pliocene age in question, although the top beds of the formations have not been dated.3.
