Description:
Abstract:
The shapefile AllChinaCoallMiningAreas represents polygon areas within 10 kilometers of Chinese coal mine locations shown on maps in the "Atlas of Solid Fuels and Nonmetal Resources of China" published in 2001. The shapefile format can be viewed using ArcGIS or any software package that supports this data format.
Purpose:
The shapefile is intended for use in a GIS project to display locations within 10 kilometers of coal mines in China.

Geometry of coal mine point locations used as center points in the creation of the polygons areas of this shapefile.
Process_Step:
Process_Description:
A new shapefile called AllChinaCoalMiningAreas was created in ArcCatalog and added to the ArcMap project in which coal mine point locations in the AllChinaCoalMines shapefile were displayed.
Source_Used_Citation_Abbreviation: AllChinaCoalMines
Process_Date: 04012012
Process_Step:
Process_Description:
10 kilometer buffers around coal mine point locations from the AllChinaCoalMines shapefile were created and added to the AllChinaCoalMiningAreas shapefile.
Source_Used_Citation_Abbreviation: AllChinaCoalMines
Process_Date: 04012012
Process_Step:
Process_Description:
Polygons created in process step 2 were assigned Rank values based on the rank of the coal mine that each polygon represented.
Process_Date: 04012012
Process_Step:
Process_Description:
Overlapping polygons of the same rank were merged and their outlines were smoothed.
Process_Date: 04012012
