Process Steps

Process Step 1

CC ID: 669295
Description:

1. Download NPS Regions dataset from https://irma.nps.gov/App/Reference/Profile/1035889

2. Dissolve polygons based on NPS_Region field

3. Edit the 'NPS_Region' field name so it matches the data dictionary

4. Create 'mailingAddress' and 'telephoneNumber' fields and populate with information from http://www.nps.gov/aboutus/contactinformation.htm

5. Define all field aliases

6. create/update metadata

7. Determine symbology for layer file. Create a layer file containing symbology from each feature class. Include Layer Name, Description, Credits, and Scale Ranges (if applicable) within the layer file and its source. Save in same location data lives in.
