Abstract:
Arc coverage of digital line cover representing existing wild and scenic rivers and river segments in the state of Alaska.
Purpose: Provide appropriate scale data to meet park management needs.
Supplemental_Information:
The source of this data is USGS 1:2000000 DLG (Digital Line Graph) Hydrography data files (optional format). Wild and scenic rivers and river segments were identified in the existing USGS Hydro files and then tagged and set aside in this cover.

Process_Description:
NPS received the ArcInfo Export file (e00) via ftp on June 2, 1998. Coverage was exported as a line coverage. Item "Length_Miles" added for computing length of arcs in miles using PDS.aml Coverage then projected to decimal degrees for use in the Permanent Data Set.
