U.S. Geological Survey 19810501 Points_of_interest vector digital data Reston, VA U.S. Geological Survey Points_of_interest An automated inventory of the names and locations of physical and cultural geographic features located throughout the United States. To promote geographic feature name standardization and to serve as the Federal Government's repository of information regarding feature name spellings and applications for features in U.S. The names listed in the inventory can be published on Federal maps, charts, and in other documents. The feature locative information has been used in emergency preparedness, marketing, site-selection and analysis, genealogical and historical research, and transportation routing applications. en REQUIRED: The year (and optionally month, or month and day) for which the data set corresponds to the ground. ground condition As needed. -111.051330 -109.853229 44.999111 44.133275 -12362177.461300 -12228805.553800 5486090.032600 5621381.455100 None. geographic feature feature name place name None.

Reston Virginia 20192 1 703 648 4544 rpayne@usgs.gov 0730-1700 The Geographic Names Information System was developed by the U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the U.S. Board on Geographic Names. ESRI ArcCatalog 9.3.1.3000 File Geodatabase Feature Class A random sample of 10% of the entries in the system were visually verified against the compilation source data (large-scale USGS topographic maps) to ensure an accuracy rate of at least 95%. Locative references (geographic coordinates, topographic map, and county) are cross-checked for logical consistency. This dataset contains information about physical and cultural geographic features identified by a proper name, with the exception of most roads and highways. Accuracy of these digital data is based upon the use of source graphics which are compiled to meet National Map Accuracy Standards. Comparision to the graphic source is used as control to assess digital positional accuracy.

The records are organized by State (or State equivalent). Each record includes: the official name of the feature; the feature type; the county(s) in which the feature is located; the name(s) of the USGS 1:24,000-scale topographic map(s) on which the feature is shown; geographic coordinates locating the mouth of linear features and the approximate center of areal features, and coordinates locating the feature on each additional (if any) USGS 1:24,000-scale map on which the feature is shown; a bibliographic code referring to the source of information for each record, and other names by which the feature may be or may have been known. Some records include information about the history of the feature or the origin of the feature name.
