Abstract:
This shapefile is derived from GIS data that was originally developed for Colorado's Western Slope in the mid-1990's as part of the CDSS project. Any subsequent data processing is described in the Data Quality Information section below. The release notes that were originally created for the data are as follows:

This directory contains the Arc/Info coverages populated for CRDSS as part of Task 1.06 and 2.03 Spatial Database Development for section, township, and range areas. This coverage describes the Public Land Survey System for western Colorado including section, township and range data obtained from USGS internet site. Data was obtained in DLG format in 304 separate tiles that were imported into ARC/INFO, the associated numeric codes determined and the resulting coverages joined into one seamless coverage. The resulting coverage is attributed with the original USGS data and no attempt has been made to correct or verify this data.

Purpose: Spatial data in support of the CDSS project.
