Summary
This map layer portrays the county boundaries of the United States, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands as linework. The map layer was derived from the 1:1,000,000-Scale County Boundaries of the United States polygon data set by applying the Arc/Info Clean function. The Clean function eliminates the duplicate arcs present in polygon shapefiles, leaving one copy of each line.
