Description:
Abstract:
This is a 1:24,000-scale datalayer of Connecticut Towns. It includes two Shapefiles with line and polygon features. The line Shapefile includes state, county, town, and coastline boundaries. The polygon Shapefile includes polygons that represent the geographic extent of each town, including coastal islands. Polygons are assigned town numbers to identify them. This datalayer is based on the town boundary information that appears on the U.S. Geological Survey topographic quadrangle maps that cover the State of Connecticut. It was derived from the U.S. Geological Survey Digital Line Graph Files (DLG) for the 1:24,000 scale Connecticut quadrangle maps published between 1969 and 1984. This datalayer depicts a Connecticut coastline along Long Island Sound that is coincident with the coastline in the hydrography, hydrography subset, and named streams datalayers.
