<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><P><SPAN>The municipal boundary is a publication of polygons of all incorporated cities in Arkansas. The Arkansas GIS Office maintains this file in coordination with the municipalities of the State. It represents the contemporary boundary of the city.Data developed with coordinate geometry (COGO) from legal descriptions were used. When necessary the data were adjusted to conform to known physical features. This dataset does not represent exact legal boundaries as per surveyed description, but, rather a set of boundaries used for the administrative purposes that conforms to logical & administrative rules. These polygons may be edited for the purpose of small spatial alignment changes based on new, enhanced or improved supporting basemap data, such as orthoimagery, public land survey, or cadastral data that improves the spatial accuracy of the existing geometry.</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV> |
