These boundary files are specifically designed for small-scale thematic mapping. When possible generalization is performed with the intent to maintain the hierarchical relationships among geographies and to maintain the alignment of geographies within a file set for a given year. Geographic areas may not align with the same areas from another year. Some geographies are available as nation-based shapefiles while others are available only as state-based files.</gco:CharacterString>\n         </gmd:abstract>\n         <gmd:purpose>\n            <gco:CharacterString xmlns:gco=\"http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gco\">These files were specifically created to support small-scale thematic mapping.  To improve the appearance of shapes at small scales, areas are represented with fewer vertices than detailed TIGER/Line Shapefiles.  Cartographic boundary files take up less disk space than their ungeneralized counterparts.  Cartographic boundary files take less time to render on screen than TIGER/Line Shapefiles.  You can join this shapefile with table data downloaded from American FactFinder by using the AFFGEOID field in the cartographic boundary file.  If detailed boundaries are required, please use the TIGER/Line Shapefiles instead of the generalized cartographic boundary files.  </gco:CharacterString>\n         </gmd:purpose>\n

Some small holes or discontiguous parts of areas are not included in generalized files.</gco:CharacterString>\n               </gmd:evaluationMethodDescription>\n               <gmd:result xmlns:gco=\"http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gco\" gco:nilReason=\"unknown\"/>\n            </gmd:DQ_CompletenessOmission>\n         </gmd:report>\n         <gmd:report>\n            <gmd:DQ_ConceptualConsistency>\n               <gmd:measureDescription>\n                  <gco:CharacterString xmlns:gco=\"http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gco\">The Census Bureau performed automated tests to ensure logical consistency of the source database.  Segments making up the outer and inner boundaries of a polygon tie end-to-end to completely enclose the area.  All polygons were tested for closure. The Census Bureau uses its internally developed geographic update system to enhance and modify spatial and attribute data in the Census MAF/TIGER database.  Standard geographic codes, such as FIPS codes for states, counties, municipalities, county subdivisions, places, American Indian/Alaska Native/Native Hawaiian areas, and congressional districts 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 MAF/TIGER database files.  Feature attribute information has been examined but has not been fully tested for consistency.  \n\nFor the cartographic boundary shapefiles, the Point and Vector Object Count for the G-polygon SDTS Point and Vector Object Type reflects the number of records in the shapefile attribute table.  For multi-polygon features, only one attribute record exists for each multi-polygon rather than one attribute record per individual G-polygon component of the multi-polygon feature.  TIGER/Line Shapefile multi-polygons are an exception to the G-polygon object type classification.  Therefore, when multi-polygons exist in a shapefile, the object count will be less than the actual number of G-polygons.</gco:CharacterString>\n               </gmd:measureDescription>\n               <gmd:result xmlns:gco=\"http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gco\" gco:nilReason=\"unknown\"/>\n            </gmd:DQ_ConceptualConsistency>\n         </gmd:report>\n         <gmd:lineage>\n            <gmd:LI_Lineage>\n               <gmd:processStep>\n                  <gmd:LI_ProcessStep>\n                     <gmd:description>\n                        <gco:CharacterString xmlns:gco=\"http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gco\">Spatial data were extracted from the MAF/TIGER database and processed through a U.S. Census Bureau batch generalization system.</gco:CharacterString>\n                     </gmd:description>\n                     <gmd:dateTime>\n                        <gco:DateTime xmlns:gco=\"http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gco\">2014-04-01T00:00:00</gco:DateTime>\n                     </gmd:dateTime>\n                     <gmd:source>\n                        <gmd:LI_Source>\n                           <gmd:description>\n                              <gco:CharacterString xmlns:gco=\"http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gco\">Geo-spatial Relational Database</gco:CharacterString>\n                           </gmd:description>\n                           <gmd:sourceCitation>\n                              <gmd:CI_Citation>\n                                 <gmd:title>\n                                    <gco:CharacterString xmlns:gco=\"http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gco\">MAF/TIGER</gco:CharacterString>\n                                 </gmd:title>\n                                 <gmd:date>\n                                    <gmd:CI_Date>\n                                       <gmd:date>\n                                          <gco:Date xmlns:gco=\"http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gco\">201404</gco:Date>\n                                       </gmd:date>\n                                       <gmd:dateType>\n                                          <gmd:CI_DateTypeCode codeList=\"http://www.isotc211.org/2005/resources/Codelist/gmxCodelists.xml#CI_DateTypeCode\"\n                                                               codeListValue=\"revision\"\n                                                               codeSpace=\"003\">\n                                                revision </gmd:CI_DateTypeCode>\n                                       </gmd:dateType>\n                                    </gmd:CI_Date>\n                                 </gmd:date>\n                              </gmd:CI_Citation>\n                           </gmd:sourceCitation>\n                        </gmd:LI_Source>\n                     </gmd:source>\n                  </gmd:LI_ProcessStep>\n               </gmd:processStep>\n            </gmd:LI_Lineage>\n         </gmd:lineage>\n      </gmd:DQ_DataQuality>\n   </gmd:dataQualityInfo>\n   <gmd:metadataMaintenance xmlns:gmd=\"http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gmd\">\n      <gmd:MD_MaintenanceInformation>\n         <gmd:maintenanceAndUpdateFrequency>\n            <gmd:MD_MaintenanceFrequencyCode codeList=\"http://www.isotc211.org/2005/resources/Codelist/gmxCodelists.xml#MD_MaintenanceFrequencyCode\"\n                                             codeListValue=\"notPlanned\"\n                                             codeSpace=\"011\">\n                         notPlanned\n                </gmd:MD_MaintenanceFrequencyCode>\n         </gmd:maintenanceAndUpdateFrequency>\n         <gmd:maintenanceNote>\n            <gco:CharacterString xmlns:gco=\"http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gco\">This was transformed from the Census Metadata Import\n      Format</gco:CharacterString>\n         </gmd:maintenanceNote>\n         <gmd:contact xmlns:xlink=\"http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink\"\n                      xlink:href=\"https://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/docucomp/e2a02c3c-01bf-42e7-bee9-0f64f2ef611c \"\n                      xlink:title=\"U.S. Department of Commerce, U.S. Census Bureau, Geography Division/Cartographic Products Branch  (custodian) \"/>\n      </gmd:MD_MaintenanceInformation>\n   </gmd:metadataMaintenance>\n</gmi:MI_Metadata>","source_transform":{"@type":"dcat:Dataset","accessLevel":"non-public","contactPoint":{"@type":"vcard:Contact","fn":"\n      U.S. Department of Commerce, U.S. Census Bureau, Geography Division/Cartographic Products Branch\n    ","hasEmail":"mailto:geo.geography@census.gov"},"describedByType":"application/octet-steam","description":"The 2013 cartographic boundary shapefiles are simplified representations of selected geographic areas from the U.S. Census Bureau's Master Address File / Topologically Integrated Geographic Encoding and Referencing (MAF/TIGER) Database (MTDB).
