This geospatial data represents the small-scale (500k) mapping of the United States State boundaries as produced by the U.S. Census Bureau.
This polygon data represents the small-scale (500k) mapping of the United States State boundaries. This resource is a member of a series. The TIGER/Line shapefiles and related database files (.dbf) are an extract of selected geographic and cartographic information from the U.S. Census Bureau's Master Address File / Topologically Integrated Geographic Encoding and Referencing (MAF/TIGER) System (MTS). The MTS represents a seamless national file with no overlaps or gaps between parts, however, each TIGER/Line shapefile is designed to stand alone as an independent data set, or they can be combined to cover the entire nation. States and equivalent entities are the primary governmental divisions of the United States. In addition to the fifty states, the Census Bureau treats the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and each of the Island Areas (American Samoa, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, Guam, and the U.S. Virgin Islands) as the statistical equivalents of states for the purpose of data presentation.
The GEOIDFQ attribute is a concatenation of the summary level code, followed by the geovariant code, followed by the geocomponent code, followed by 'US', followed by the state identifier. No spaces are allowed between the codes. The summary level code is '040'. The geovariant code is '00'. The geocomponent code is '00'. The state identifier is taken from the 'GEOID' attribute.
