Purpose: U.S. National Atlas Urbanized Areas provides information about the locations, names, and populations of urbanized areas for conducting geographic analysis on national and large regional scales. Supplemental_Information: Largest scale when displaying the data: 1:1,500,000. This is a subset of the original dataset. It has been clipped to the extent of the Gulf of Maine surficial sediment GIS project extent.

Positional_Accuracy: Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy: Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report: The geospatial part of this data set was originally extracted from the Digital Chart of the World at 1:1,000,000-scale with some geospatial data from a USGS 1:2,000,000-scale hydrography layer. It was updated several times using various sources whose horizontal positional accuracies are unknown.

Where the urban boundaries extend beyond the 1:2,000,000-scale shoreline, the 1:2,000,000-scale shoreline was used by "CLIPPING" the urban polygons. Names of the urban areas were added. In large metropolitan areas many smaller areas were labeled as part of the metropolitan area. The state in which the urban area is located was also added. Several areas were modified to conform to the 1:2,000,000-scale hydrography layer. Some smaller polygons that represent undeveloped areas within the urban area were removed and merged with the larger urban area. Military reservations were removed. Revisions: 1) 6/29/98 - Corrected ellipsoid name from WGS84 to GRS1980 and changed flattening ratio. 2) 11/13/98 - Added State FIPS attribute; moved polygons for Altus, OK and Olustee, OK; and edited State attribute for Kansas City and Washington metro area.

Removed unneeded attributes. Reduced the width of attributes. Created ArcGIS™ layer file (.lyr). Created ArcView legend file (.avl). Created projection file (.prj). Ran ArcView Avenue request ExportClean, and created spatial indices.
