3 SPATIAL DATA ORGANIZATION INFORMATION

   3.1 Indirect Spatial Reference: Wetlands are defined as polygons identified by a
   software-placed label point or as an arc labeled with a wetland cover type.  Some arcs and
   polygons represent boundaries imposed by the quadrangle borders and therefore do not
   represent true feature boundaries. All non-wetland polygons possess either a U SYSTEM
   and NWILABEL or have blank wetland cover types (outside the study area). All
   non-wetland arcs possess a blank cover type label.
