Summary

This layer contains a generalized boundary of the US. This polygon file was designed for small scale thematic mapping and analysis.
 

Description

            

The spatial data were obtained from the Natural Earth website. Geoprocessing was performed to merge the US State boundaries together into one nationwide US boundary. Attributes were further modified to include ID, geography, and population information. The coordinate system of this data is WGS 1984.
