1. IDENTIFICATION INFORMATION

1.1 CITATION (8.1) ORIGINATOR: Illinois Department of Natural Resources (8.2) PUBLICATION DATE: 1993 (8.4) TITLE: Digital file name is - UTILITY Data set title is - Electrical transmission lines and pipelines, 1:100,000 for Illinois by county

1.2 DESCRIPTION 1.2.1 ABSTRACT: This is an INCOMPLETE inventory of major transmission lines and pipelines at 1:100,000 for all of Illinois and portions of surrounding states. Derived from the US Geological Survey 1:100,000 Digital Line Graph (DLG) files, transportation layer. These features are often not included in urban areas due to cartographic considerations. DLG files reflect the analog map series. Publication dates of the USGS maps used as sources range from 1980 to 1986. The maximum estimated error in horizontal position based on National Map Accuracy Standards is 167 feet. 1.2.2 PURPOSE: These data are appropriate for use in local and regional thematic analysis of electrical lines and pipelines. Data are not appropriate as a geodetic or engineering base

1.3 TIME PERIOD OF CONTENT (9.1) SINGLE DATE/TIME (9.1.1) CALENDAR DATE: 1980-90 1.3.1 CURRENTNESS REFERENCE: Publication date of sources. Contact metadata contact for a list of sources. 1.4 STATUS 1.4.1 PROGRESS: No statement of completeness was provided with the original USGS DLG data. Data is adequate for graphic display but suspect for analytic purposes due do uncertainty about completeness of coverage. 1.4.2 MAINTENANCE AND UPDATE FREQUENCY: Irregular
