Description:
Abstract:
Data covers the geographic area of Westchester County, New York.  Data derived from Spring 2000 (leaf off) photogrammetric base map of Westchester County.  Coverage contains locations of the three major commuter rail lines in Westchester County, New York (Hudson, Harlem, and New Haven lines). Data meets National Map Accuracy Standards at 1"=100'.
Purpose:
The coverage is intended for general planning purposes only, and may not be appropriate for site specific analysis.
Supplemental_Information:
This coverage is in ARC/INFO (.E00) export format. Coordinate System - New York State Plane, FIPS zone: 3101 (Formerly East Zone 4801) Units: Feet, North American Datum 1983. This coverage can be accessed electronically by clicking on the above link, or by visiting the Westchester County GIS web site to download this coverage along with additional Westchester County data layers. <Http://giswww.westchestergov.com>
