defined in the Lands Acquisition Procedures Manual Chapter 5. Boundary data from LRD has separate polygons for individual
types of units like Denali National Park and Denali National Preserve. Lands records in the dataset that can be identified
by querying for [GIS_Notes] = "Lands" in the attribute table. These parks include: Abraham Lincoln Birthplace National Historic

- Process Description Two sets of boundaries were collected and compared. The main set was obtained from David Duran, who collected boundaries from
each region in the summer of 2001. The second set was obtained from Dean Tucker, who digitized boundaries for the Horizon
Project. The main set from David Duran was determined to contain the most recent boundary information. Parks missing from
David's set were added from Deans set. Those parks are..........Antietam NB Arlington House,Benjamin Franklin NMEM, Big Hole
NB, Catoctin Mountain Park, Chesapeake and Ohio Canal NHP, Chimney Rock NHS, Fort Point NHS, Fredericksburg NC, George Washington
Memorial Parkway, Green Springs, Harpers Ferry NHP, International Peace Garden, John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing
Arts, Kalaupapa NHP, Manassas NBP, McLoughlin House NHS, Monocacy NB, National Capital Parks - Central and East, Olympic NP,
Prince William Forest Park, Rock Creek Park, San Francisco Maritime NHP, Thaddeus Kosciuszko NMEM, and
Wolf Trap Farm Park for the Performing Arts. Park/Region staff were consulted for parks with major differences between
the two sets.
