- Description:
-
- Abstract:
-
This data set portrays the major roads in the United States, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. The file was produced by joining the individual State roads layers from the 1:2,000,000-scale Digital Line Graph (DLG) data produced by the USGS. This is a revised version of the March 1999 data set.
- Purpose:
-
This data set is intendend for use by the National Weather Service (NWS) to display roads data with it's various display software.
- Supplemental_Information:
-
The differences between the USGS version and the NWS version is that only the roads designated as interstate or limited access are included and the road types in the NWS version were modified to be a standard abbreviation. See process step for details.

-
The 2MILRD data files were originally digitized by the National Mapping Division based on the sectional maps contained in 'The National Atlas of the United States of America' published by the USGS in 1970. The files were updated and the Arc/INFO software command DLGARC was used to convert the State DLG optional-format files to Arc/INFO coverages. The individual State coverages were then merged together using the Arc/INFO command APPEND.
