    Abstract:
      TIGER, TIGER/Line, and Census TIGER are registered trademarks of the 
      U.S. Census Bureau.  ZCTA is a trademark of the U.S. Census Bureau. 
      The 2002 TIGER/Line files are an extract of selected geographic and 
      cartographic information from the Census TIGER database.  The
      TIGER/Line data are not in a mapping projection even though most of
      the features were scanned directly from source maps that were in a
      projection.  The polygons of the New York City urban areas data subset of 
      the TIGER/Line data was imported into a postgis database, and then used as 
      a backend for the GeoServer Web Feature Service.  The urban areas are
      represented as a multipolygon for each borough, returned as features in 
      GML2.  The data can be queried using http post and get requests, as 
      specified in the Open GIS Consortium's Web Feature Service specification. 
    Purpose:
      This dataset is used to demonstration the capabilties of GeoServer, 
      a Java j2ee implementation of the OGC's Web Feature Service (WFS).
      It also demonstrates the capabilities of the zserver module, which 
      provides an integrated z39.50 Geo Profile server, written in Java.  
      The TIGER/Line data that is provided by the U.S. Census Bureau
      in order for others to use the information in the Census TIGER 
      database in a geographic information system (GIS) or for other 
      geographic applications, the Census Bureau releases to the public 
      extracts of the database in the form of TIGER/Line files.  Various 
      versions of the TIGER/Line files have been released on an irregular
      schedule since 1990; previous versions of the Census 2000 series 
      include the Redistricting Census 2000 TIGER/Line files, the UA 
      Census 2000 TIGER/Line files and the Census 2000 TIGER/Line files.

    Maintenance_and_Update_Frequency:
      TIGER/Line files are extracted from the Census TIGER database when 
      needed for geographic programs required to support the census and 
      survey programs of the U.S. Census Bureau.  No changes or updates 
      will be made to the UA Census 2000 TIGER/Line files.  Future releases 
      of TIGER/Line files will reflect updates made to the Census TIGER 
      database and will be released under a version numbering system 
      based on the month and year the data is extracted.

  Access_Constraints: None
  Use_Constraints:
    None.  Acknowledgment of the U.S. Census Bureau would be appreciated 
    for products derived from these files.  TIGER, TIGER/Line, and Census 
    TIGER are registered trademarks of the U.S. Census Bureau.  ZCTA is a 
    trademark of the U.S. Census Bureau.
  Native_Data_Set_Environment:
    TIGER/Line files are created and processed in a VMS environment.  
    The environment consists of two Alpha Server 8400s clustered together 
    running OpenVMS version 6.2-1H3 used for production operations.  The 
    Census TIGER system is driven by DEC Command language (DCL) procedures 
    which invoke C software routines to extract selected geographic and 
    cartographic information (TIGER/Line files) from the operational 
    Census TIGER database.
Data_Quality_Information:
  Attribute_Accuracy:
    Attribute_Accuracy_Report:
      Accurate against Federal information Processing Standards (FIPS), 
      FIPS Publication 6-4, and FIPS-55 at the 100% level for the codes 
      and base names.  The remaining attribute information has been 
      examined but has not been fully tested for accuracy.
  Logical_Consistency_Report:
    The feature network of lines (as represented by Record Types 1 and 2) 
    is complete for census purposes.  Spatial objects in TIGER/Line belong 
    to the "Geometry and Topology" (GT) class of objects in the "Spatial 
    Data Transfer Standard" (SDTS) FIPS Publication 173 and are 
    topologically valid.  Node/geometry and topology (GT)-polygon/chain 
    relationships are collected or generated to satisfy topological edit
    requirements.  These requirements include:
    * Complete chains must begin and end at nodes.
    * Complete chains must connect to each other at nodes.
    * Complete chains do not extend through nodes.
    * Left and right GT-polygons are defined for each complete chain 
    element and are consistent throughout the extract process.
    * The chains representing the limits of the files are free of gaps.
    The Census Bureau performed automated tests to ensure logical 
    consistency and limits of files.  All polygons are tested for closure.  
    The Census Bureau uses its internally developed Geographic Update 
    System to enhance and modify spatial and attribute data in the Census 
    TIGER database.  Standard geographic codes, such as FIPS codes for 
    states, counties, municipalities, and places, are used when encoding 
    spatial entities.  The Census Bureau performed spatial data tests for 
    logical consistency of the codes during the compilation of the original 
    Census TIGER database files.  Most of the Codes themselves were provided 
    to the Census Bureau by the USGS, the agency responsible for maintaining 
    FIPS 55. Feature attribute information has been examined but has not been
    fully tested for consistency.
  Completeness_Report:
    Data completeness of the TIGER/Line files reflects the contents of the 
    Census TIGER database at the time the TIGER/Line files (2002 version) 
    were created.
  Positional_Accuracy:
    Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:
      Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:
        The information present in these files is provided for the purposes 
        of statistical analysis and census operations only.  Coordinates 
        in the TIGER/Line files have six implied decimal places, but 
        the positional accuracy of these coordinates is not as great as  
        the six decimal places suggest.  The positional accuracy varies 
        with the source materials used, but generally the information is 
        no better than the established national map Accuracy standards 
        for 1:100,000-scale maps from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS); 
        thus it is NOT suitable for high-precision measurement applications 
        such as engineering problems, property transfers, or other uses 
        that might require highly accurate measurements of the earth's 
        surface.  The USGS 1:100,000-scale maps met national map accuracy 
        standards and use coordinates defined by the North American Datum,
