This data set is being archived as part of the Barrow Area Spatial Data Infrastructure effort. This project is made possible with funding from the National Science Foundation (NSF Award OPP-0004401) and the US Geological Survey (USGS Award Number: 03HQAG0177) to the Barrow Arctic Science Consortium (BASC).
This boundary was verified against source maps from the UIC Real Estate Office.
The UIC boundary was prepared with the best available data as of August, 2003.
No data was provided regarding the horizontal accuracy of this data set. However, the southern boundary was veried against the township and section lines of the a scanned USGS quad.
The southern boundary corresponds with the township, range and section grid as described in the legal description and overlays perfectly in ArcGIS.
There is no elevation data contained within this boundary file.
not applicable.
This effort to document and archive Barrow Area data has been led by BASC through contracts with MSU and Nuna Technologies.
This data set was obtained form the NSB GIS. The original file was stored in the stateplane coordinate system and was reprojected to the UTM Zone 4.
