Under the jurisdiction of the National Park Service (NPS), these park units are located throughout the United States (U.S.) and its territories. The dataset was compiled (and edited) from a variety sources: park-based GIS databases; U.S. Geological Survey 7.5' 1:24,000 quadrangles; NPS Park Land Status Maps; legal descriptions; etc.). The boundaries are in Latitude-Longitude (Clarke 1866-NAD27) decimal degrees. The ID_ field contains the unique 4 character park code identifying each park. The NAME1_ field contains the full park name. The NAME2_ field contains information about the source, scale, and date of the boundary. The boundaries are generally the designated boundary. Inholdings may or may not be shown depending on the park. To obtain the most accurate, current boundary, users should contact the specific park. Description: Abstract: This shapefile represents the boundaries of Booker T. Washington National Monument (BOWA). It was taken from the National Park System Boundary Dataset created by the National Park Service, Water Resources Division. Purpose: This shapefile was created to provide a general representation of the BOWA boundary for the vegetation classification and mapping completed by the Virginia Department of Conservation and Recreation, Division of Natural Heritage in June 2008. These data should not be used for any legal boundary disputes. They are derived from a data set intended solely for use in identifying the general locations of national park units throughout the U.S. Time_Period_of_Content: Time_Period_Information: Single_Date/Time: Calendar_Date: 20010503 Currentness_Reference: publication date of source data Status: Progress: Complete Maintenance_and_Update_Frequency: None planned.
