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

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 14. Nebraska had to be

projected from NAD27 to NAD83 to correspond with the remaining coverages.

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 covering all the counties using

the `poly' and `all' options for the county boundaries coverage and the `arc' and `all' options

for the remaining 3 coverages. Polygon topology for the counties coverage was reconstructed

using `clean'.

4. The item `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.
