Ownership is by one of 11 different State or Federal agencies or is Private. Jurisdiction (management) is under one of 8 different State or Federal agencies or is Private (PVT). The data were compiled and digitized by the Fish and Wildlife Service and BLM Colorado State Office. The data are reprojected and reformatted in this data release. Purpose: To illustrate land ownership in Colorado. Colorado. Supplemental_Information: This dataset was extracted and reprojected from data released by the Bureau of Land Management, Colorado State Office, Geosciences Team and the US Fish and Wildlife Service for their Colorado GAP project.

This digital map is not to be construed as a legal representation of the land ownership or administration. The data should not be used at scales larger than 1:500,000, although the data were compiled at 1:100,000. Any hardcopies utilizing this data set shall clearly indicate this source. If the user has modified the data in any way, (s)he is obligated to describe the types of modifications performed on the hardcopy map.

Completeness_Report: The data are considered complete for the purpose of displaying land ownership and administration in Colorado at 1:500,000 scale. According to the source metadata by BLM, features may have been eliminated or generalized due to scale and legibility constraints. Logical_Consistency_Report: The original data were provided by the Bureau of Land Management, Colorado State Office, Geosciences Team on thieir GIS data website. Because the connection had been severed in 2001-2002 due to an administrative court order, the data file was supplied directly by the BLM as a zipped ArcExport (.e00) file. The files were unzipped and imported into MapInfo Pro 6.5 using the built-in Universal Translator. In MapInfo Professional v. 6.5 the file was reprojected (unprojected) from Universal Transverse Mercator, NAD 27, to latitude/longitude decimal degree coordinates.

Name, Juris (jurisdiction/management), and Owner (ownership). Each uses a series of acronyms and abbreviations devised by the FWS based on the surface management status maps provided by BLM-Colorado and outlined in detail in the metadata available from the BLM. These will only be summarized in this report. Ownership is by one of 10 different Federal agencies, the State of Colorado, or is Private. Jurisdiction (management) is under one of 7 Federal agencies, the State of Colorado, or is Private (PVT). The standard abbreviations used follow: OWNER BIA Bureau of Indian Affairs BLM Bureau of Land Management COLORADO Colorado DOD Department of Defense DOE Department of Energy FED Federal Land (other, unclassified) NIST National Institute of Standards and Technology NOAA National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration NPS National Park Service PVT Private USFS U.S. Forest Service (National Forest or Grassland) USFWS U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service JURIS BLM Bureau of Land Management FL Federal Land (other, unclassified) GRASS Grassland IR Indian Reservation MIL Military NF National Forest Private Private Land SL State Land WILD Wilderness Area NAME gives the name of the parcel, if known, followed by a complex hierarchy of details (not considered essential information for this report) for which the user is referred to the original BLM metadata.
