3.2 Map Theme Information

The Map Themes pull-down menu contains maps developed from various data types described in Table
I. Many of the maps originally covered the entire state of Colorado, or were assembled for areas of Colorado
greater than the South Platte Basin. These maps were "clipped" for Division I or Water District 64, using
the I :250,000 division and districts map. This table describes edits made to the maps during this project.
Technical questions should be addressed to the IDS Group at Colorado State University.
