The coordinates for the data were collected using a Geo-Explorer 2 GPS reciever. The data was then buffered in Arc-View to produce acreage polygons. </abstract> <purpose> The intended use of all data in the park's GIS library is to support diverse park activities including planning, management, research and interpretation. </purpose> <supplinf> Established May 24, 1911, and on 20,453.932 acres, Colorado National Monument consists of geologic features including: towering red sandstone monoliths, deep sheer-walled canyons, and a variety of wildlife (bighorn sheep, golden eagles, mule deer, and mountain lions). </supplinf> </descript> <timeperd> <timeinfo> <rngdates> <begdate>199912</begdate> <enddate>200003</enddate> </rngdates> </timeinfo> <current>ground condition</current> </timeperd> <status> <progress>In work</progress> <update>As needed</update> </status> <spdom> <bounding> <westbc>-108.7546</westbc> <eastbc>-108.6186</eastbc> <northbc>39.1212</northbc> <southbc>38.9854</southbc> </bounding> </spdom> <keywords> <theme> <themekt>None</themekt> <themekey>Tamarisk</themekey> <themekey>Tamarix</themekey> <themekey>Salt Ceder</themekey> <themekey>Acreage</themekey> </theme> <place> <placekt>None</placekt> <placekey>Colorado National Monument</placekey> <placekey>COLM</placekey> <placekey>National Park Service</placekey> <placekey>NPS</placekey> <placekey>United States</placekey> <placekey>US</placekey> <placekey>USA</placekey> <placekey>North America</placekey> <placekey>Colorado</placekey> <placekey>Mesa County</placekey> </place> <place> <placekt>National Park System Unit Code Thesaurus</placekt><placekey>COLM</placekey></place><place> <placekt>National Park System Unit Name Thesaurus</placekt><placekey>Colorado National Monument</placekey></place><theme> <themekt>National Park Service Theme Category Thesaurus</themekt><themekey>Alien / Noxious Plants</themekey><themekey>Biology</themekey><themekey>Plants</themekey><themekey>Vegetation</themekey></theme><theme> <themekt>ISO 19115 Topic Category</themekt><themekey>Environment</themekey></theme></keywords> <accconst>none</accconst> <useconst>none</useconst> <ptcontac> <cntinfo> <cntorgp> <cntorg>National Park Service, Intermountain GIS Program Office</cntorg> </cntorgp> <cntpos>GIS Coordinator/GIS Specialist</cntpos> <cntaddr> <addrtype>Mailing and physical address</addrtype> <address>12795 West Alameda Parkway</address> <city>Lakewood</city> <state>Colorado</state> <postal>80225</postal> <country>USA</country> </cntaddr> <cntemail>imro_gis_coordinator@nps.gov</cntemail> </cntinfo> </ptcontac> <native/> <crossref> <citeinfo> <title>Metadata for 1999 Tamarisk Acreage at Colorado National Monument, Colorado http://nrdata.nps.gov/colm/colmdata/colm_tamarisk_acres.xml National Park Service, Colorado National Monument, Resource Department 200209 Map <pubinfo> <pubplace/> <publish/> </pubinfo> <onlink/> </citeinfo> </lworkcit> </citeinfo> </crossref> <browse> <browsen>http://nrdata.nps.gov/colm/colmdata/colm_tamarisk_acres.jpg</browsen> </browse> </idinfo> <dataqual> <attracc> <attraccr> There were no tests to assure attribute accuracy.
