Statement

Methodology:

Data compiled from various mapping and remote sensing sources. Exact data sources are currently missing from the attribute table for the majority of data - the large majority was compiled in 1993 and digitized from the USGS 1:250k reconnaissance series maps dating from 1960s-1990s and DOS 1:250k series maps dating from 1960s and 1970s. Exact data sources can be provided on request in the format of vector lines.
