The CongDist_Gen feature class describes the location and generalized boundaries of the United States Congressional Districts of the 118th Congress. It includes common identifiers for these entities so this data set can be used in conjunction with other data sets describing Congressional Districts. This feature class is a US Forest Service Standard Reference Dataset and is the preferred spatial representation of Congressional Districts for use by the US Forest Service. This feature class should only be used for cartographic representation at small scales. |

<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>The CongDist_Gen feature class is a generalized spatial representation of the United States Congressional Districts of the 118th Congress. The data was generalized using the Esri Generalize polygon function. The CongDist feature class is a US Forest Service Standard Reference Dataset and is the preferred spatial representation of US Congressional Districts. This feature class has been modified and should only be used for cartographic purposes at small scales. The purpose of the generalized CongDist_Gen dataset is to improve map display and drawing performance in both ArcGIS applications and ArcGIS Server map services. To satisfy both performance improvement and geometry representation, the following parameters and geoprocessing method were used. Simplify the input features using the Douglas-Peucker simplification algorithm with a specified maximum offset tolerance of 375 meters. The output features will contain a subset of the original input vertices. Min scale refers to what scale the layer turns off when zooming out. Max scale refers to the scale the layer turns off at when zooming in. Min scale: 0, no minimum scale set, Max Scale: 1:4622325.</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV> |
