000readme.txt, March 16, 1999, pd Explanation of digital data files for the 'Digital geologic map database of the Payette National Forest and vicinity, Idaho: U.S. Geological Survey Open-File Report 98-219B.' The text of the USGS Open-File Report contains detailed digital file documentation and is provided in a Portable Document Format as of98-219b.pdf. The 'pnf100k.tar.Z' file contains the Arc/Info GIS and the Open-File Report text for the 'Digital geologic map database of the Payette National Forest and vicinity, Idaho.' To download the GIS data file, create a new workspace on your workstation and run an anonymous FTP (ftp greenwood.cr.usgs.gov, enter 'anonymous' for a login name and your e-mail address for the password, cd to pub/open-file-reports/ofr-98-0219-b/, specify binary format, and 'get' the files you desire). To import the Arc/Info interchange-format files into your workspace, open Arc/Info on your workstation and enter '&run 00import' at the Arc: prompt. Your working directory should contain the following files: 000readme.txt - this file 00import.aml - Arc/Info program to import Arc/Info EXPORT-format files into the user's workspace. of98-219b.pdf - the Open-File Report text for the 'Digital geologic map database of the Payette National Forest and vicinity, Idaho.'
