Source Contribution Linework digitized from xerox copy of original map.
Process Step
Process Description Line work digitized from xerox copy. Tics were Township and Range section corners taken from the original map. The digitized cover was then transformed in ARC/Info using section corners derived from the Public Land Survey Section coverage from RGIS. Coordinates for the towns of Vinton and Canutillo were also used as tics.Polygons were created from the linework and the coverage was projected into UTM coordinates.
