<abstract>
This Arc/Info data set shows boundaries of 7.5&apos; (1:24,000 nominal
scale) quadrangles in Illinois.  Polygon, arc and annotation feature
classes are included.  Each side of a quadrangle is composed of a
single arc, subdivided into 5 arc segments of 1.5&apos; each.  There is a
tic for each quadrangle corner.  Boundaries and tics were generated
with version 7.1.1 of the Arc/Info software from a file of decimal
degree locations for each quadrangle corner, using the GENERATE
command.  These data are in a Lambert Conformal Conic projection
and coordinate units are feet.  Tabular data for quadrangle polygon
include quadrangle name and USGS map designation code.  Each quad is
annotated with its name.  Tabular data for the arcs include latitude
or longitude in decimal degrees.
</abstract>
<purpose>
This data set was created to serve as base map information.
Data are appropriate for use at a regional scale and are
intended as a reference.  Data are not appropriate as a
geodetic or engineering base.
</purpose>
<supplinf>
Updates to this edition: Tics and arcs have been regenerated.
Tics have been added at every quadrangle corner.  Vertices have
been added to every arc at 1.5&apos; intervals to reduce shape changes
due to projection of the data.  Arcs and polygon topology have
been added for the Danby quad in southwestern Illinois, increasing
the number of quadrangles to 1072.  Two attribute values have been
corrected.  Arcs are coded with latitude or longitude in decimal
degrees.  See process step entries dated March 1998 for more
details.

This data set is a subset of a master data set called QUADTILE that
contains boundaries for all 7.5&apos; quadrangles from 36 to 43 degrees
north latitude and 87 to 92 west longitude.  Arcs from QUADTILE can
also be used to produce statewide base maps for 15&apos; (1:62,500 scale),
30&apos; x 60&apos; (1:100,000), and 1 degree x 2 degree (1:500,000)
quadrangles.

<attraccr>
No formal review has been completed.  Regular use of these data,
however, indicate attributes are accurate.
</attraccr>
</attracc>
<logic>
A logical consistency review was performed in March, 1998.
The following checks were made:

Data set was DESCRIBED and coverage files listed to determine
the feature types present.  In this data set, the following feature
types were found and checked:  polygons, arcs, labels, nodes,
and annotation.  The presence of spatial indices was also checked.

For PAT and AAT files, each ITEM was checked for the following:
&gt;- DOMAIN of allowable values
&gt;- adherence of values to the DOMAIN
&gt;- definition of ITEMS
&gt;- requirement of all UNIQUE values for an item
&gt;- logic of ITEMS REDEFINED over other ITEMS
&gt;- length of ITEM name as regards conversion to shape file

BUILD statuses of data sets were checked, as were LABELERRORS and
NODEERRORS (where appropriate), and PROJECTION definition.

The presence of a BND file was verified.

The presence and location of TICS were checked.

Polygon and chain-node topology present.  There are no dangling
arcs.  There is one polygon label per polygon, except for universe
polygon.  Boundary values appropriate for map projection
and map units.  &quot;Fuzzy&quot; tolerance is suitable for nominal scale.
Some minor attribute errors were found and corrected.  Two polygons
had MAPNAME = CLINTON.  The one on the state boundary was renamed
CLINTON IA-IL.  There are no attribute values outside the appropriate
domains.
</logic>
<complete>
All quadrangles that intersect the state of Illinois
are included.
</complete>
<posacc>
<horizpa>
<horizpar>
These data are a mathematical construct and as such should
have a high degree of positional accuracy.  No review has been
completed, however.  There have been several instances where these
boundaries have been used with other data digitized from USGS
quadrangles with good results.
</horizpar>
</horizpa>
</posacc>
<lineage>
<procstep>
<procdesc>
Boundaries were generated by version 5.0 of the
ARC/INFO software from a file of degree minute second
locations for each quadrangle corner, using the GENERATE
command.
</procdesc>
<procdate>199210</procdate>
</procstep>
<procstep>
<procdesc>
Boundaries were regenerated by version 7.1.1 of the Arc/Info
software from a file of decimal degree minute second locations
for each quadrangle corner, using the GENERATE command.  New
tics were generated as well, one at each quad corner.  Latitude
and longitude values were assigned to the arcs in the generation
process.  The result was a parent coverage called QUADTILE.  The
data were projected to Lambert Conformal Conic.  Arcs forming
quadrangle boundaries for any 7.5 minute quadrangles intersecting
Illinois were extracted to this data set.  Polygon labels and
annotation from edition 1.0 were retained.  Internal logical
consistency checks were made as described in the logical
consistency report.

Differences between this edition (1.1) and the previous edition
(1.0) are:  Tics and arcs have been regenerated.
Tics have been added at every quadrangle corner.  Vertices have
been added to every arc at 1.5&apos; intervals to reduce shape changes
due to projection of the data.  Arcs and polygon topology have
been added for the Danby quad in southwestern Illinois, increasing
the number of quadrangles to 1072.  Two attribute values have been
corrected.  (1) There were two quadrangle with MAPNAME = &quot;CLINTON&quot;.
The one on the Illinois-Iowa border was changed to &quot;CLINTON IL-IA&quot;.
(2)  There was a value in the item USGS that contained a dash rather
than a dot.  This was corrected to conform with the correct format
for this field.

<overview>
<eaover>
&gt; Attribute items are in typical ARC/INFO feature class format.
&gt; Those requiring additional explanation are:
&gt;
&gt; POLYGON ATTRIBUTES:
&gt; MAPNAME - Name of the associated USGS 7.5 x 7.5-minute quadrangle
&gt;
&gt; USGS    - USGS map sheet index designation. This is an alphanumeric
&gt;           combination of degrees north and west with a row column
&gt;           index applied to each 1 degree by 1 degree area.
&gt;
&gt; ARC ATTRIBUTES:
&gt; COORD   - The latitude value for east-west arcs or the longitude
&gt;           value for north-south arcs.  Values are in decimal degrees.
&gt;           COORD is redefined into two smaller fields:
&gt;
&gt; INTEGER - The value of COORD to the left of the decimal.
&gt;           (The value of COORD rounded down to a whole number.)
&gt;
&gt; DECIMAL - The value of COORD to the right of the decimal.
&gt;           (The incremental fraction of COORD.)
&gt;
&gt; Q15  - Indicates if arc is also a boundary for a 15 minute quad.
&gt;         0 - arc is not a 15 min. quad boundary
&gt;         2 - arc is a 15 min. quad boundary
&gt;
&gt; Q100 - Indicates if arc is also a boundary for a 30 x 60 minute quad.
&gt;          0 - arc is not a 30 x 60 min. quad boundary
&gt;          2 - arc is a 30 x 60 min. quad boundary
&gt;
&gt; Q250 - Indicates if arc is also a boundary for a 1 x 2 degree quad.
&gt;          0 - arc is not a 1 x 2 degree quad boundary
&gt;          2 - arc is a 1 x 2 degree quad boundary
&gt;
&gt; ANNOTATION ATTRIBUTES:
&gt; Each quad is annotated with the quad name diagonally from
&gt; southwest to northeast.
