- Abstract
- This polygon shapefile consists of National Wilderness Preservation System areas of 320 acres or more, in the United States, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Some established wilderness areas which are larger than 320 acres are not included in this map layer because their boundaries were not available from the owning or administering agency. This layer is part of the 1997-2014 edition of the National Atlas of the United States.
- Purpose
- These data are intended for geographic display and analysis at the national level, and for large regional areas. The data should be displayed and analyzed at scales appropriate for 1:1,000,000-scale data. No responsibility is assumed by the National Atlas of the United States in the use of these data.
- Supplemental Information
- Information about National Atlas Web services can be found on the Web Map and Web Feature Services page; see http://nationalmap.gov/small_scale/infodocs/webservices.html.
