Source_Name: Tiger/Line Census Files, 1990; Arc coverages for each county were obtained
from Tim Rourke, CEMRO

Data_Set_History: 1. Each county's coverages for the features roads, hydrography, railways and
county boundaries were projected from the State Plane coordinate system (using the zone or
FIPS Zone Code as described in the source coverage) to UTM Zone 15.
2. Polygon topology was built for the county boundary coverages and arc topology for the
roads, hydro and rail coverages.
3. Each of the 4 features was appended into a single coverage overing all the counties using
the `poly' and `all' options or the county boundaries coverage and the `arc' and `all' options
for the remaining 3 coverages. Polygon topology for the counties coverage was reconstruct-
ed using `clean'.
4. An item titled `cnty_name' was added to the counties coverage and filled with the county
names.
5. Coverages were exported using the `none' option for no compression.
