Abstract:
FIELD OFFICE:Utah State; DATA TYPE:7.5 minute quadrangle boundaries; DESCRIPTION:Geographic Coordinates of 7.5 Minute Quadrangle Corners; SCALE:1:24,000; COMPLETED YEAR:1990; GIS SOURCE:AGRC (Automated Geographic Reference Center ); EXENT:Utah Statewide; Approximately 1542 quads cover the state.
Purpose:
This dataset controls the tiling and storage locations for the QD024 SGID ARC/INFO Library. It is also used to create quad neatlines for data to be digitized at 1:24,000 scale.
Supplemental_Information:
Procedures_Used: The index dataset was generated as a grid of latitude and longitude lines. This data was then projected into UTM meters and attributes added. Revisions: Since the dataset was originally created, several additions and deletions have been made to reflect irregularities in the state boundary. Reviews_Applied_to_Data: This dataset has been compared to similar datasets generated at various agencies using different hardware and all have been more or less the same. Correct quad names remain a challenge. Any errors should be reported to the contact listed below. Related_Spatial_and_Tabular_Data_Sets: Lists which cross-reference NAME and TILE-NAME can be found in the AGRC SGID manual. The related INFO table INDEX.ID can be used to identify 7.5 minute quadrangles by and other commonly used schemes including the geographic corner coordinates. This table is sorted on the TILE-NAME field. This field also provides the link to the INDEX.PAT feature attribute table. The table specifications are: DATAFILE NAME: INDEX.ID TILE-NAME SGID tile-name ID (relate and sort key) OHIO-CODE Quadrangle ID code used by USGS FS-CODE Quadrangle ID used by the USFS Geometronics Service Center; references the SE corner NW_LAT Latitude of the NW corner in DMS format NW_LON Longitude of the NW corner in DMSformat NW_LAT_DD Latitude of the NW corner in decimaldegrees NW_LON_DD Longitude of the NW corner in decimaldegrees SE_LAT_DD Latitude of the SE corner in decimaldegrees SE_LON_DD Longitude of the SE corner in decimaldegrees ANGLE The inverse angle of the east-west centerline of the quadrangle with respect to the UTM grid. Can be used to correct for the inherent visual "tilt" when plotting the quad.

For use at 1:24,000 scale. Data released to the Receiving Agency (RA) remains the property of the originating data source (see Source_Information) and cannot be reproduced for sale by the RA without the written consent of that data source. Redistribution of datasets unchanged as obtained from AGRC and without fee is allowed. Any hardcopies utilizing these data sets shall clearly indicate their source. If the RA has modified the data in any way, they are obligated to describe on the hardcopy map the types of modifications they have performed. RA specifically agrees not to misrepresent these data sets, nor to imply that changes they made were approved by AGRC.
