Rail Mileposts, California, 2013
Abstract/Contents
- Abstract
- This point shapefile contains the locations of railroad mileposts along freight and passenger network subdivisions listed in the CRT20. Mileposts on the rail network identify a given point on a subdivision relative to the distance from the subdivisions origin. These data are current as of 2013. This layer is part of a collection of GIS data created by the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans).
- Purpose
- This dataset is intended for researchers, students, and policy makers for reference and mapping purposes, and may be used for basic applications such as viewing, querying, and map output production, or to provide a basemap to support graphical overlays and analysis with other spatial data.
