Fact Sheet 234–95
SummaryThe new National Atlas will meet or exceed the standard of excellence inherent in the original atlas. But The National Atlas of the United States of AmericaTM project will also exploit geospatial information technologies developed during the past 25 years to make products that are more adaptable, interesting, and useful than any book of maps. National Atlas products on CD-ROM will use geographic information system (GIS) data viewing and analysis tools with authoritative and up-to-date sets of federally collected geospatial and geostatistical data, providing users with the capability to make their own maps. |
