| Description | This metadata is meant to describe the airport and landing strip data extracted from the USGS 1 to 4,000 and 1 to 100,000 scale DLGs (Digital Line Graph). Digital line graph (DLG) data are digital representations of cartographic information. DLG's of map features are converted to digital form from maps and related sources. Both the 1 to 24,000 and 1 to 100,000 scale data were combined to create a complete statewide coverage. Data was combined using the most up to date data available at the time of creation. All DLG data distributed by the USGS are DLG - Level 3 (DLG-3), which means the data contain a full range of attribute codes, have full topological structuring, and have passed certain quality-control checks. The files available from NC CGIA are either full dlg3 (USGS approved) or dlgs created by NC CGIA which are under review by the USGS for inclusion in the National database. Both the dlg text files and the ARC INFO coverages are available from CGIA. For further information on the USGS DLG Project see the usgs website. |
