Comparison with other datasets for the same area from other time periods may be inaccurate due to inconsistencies resulting from rounding of decimal coordinates during conversion, changes in mapping conventions over time, change in assignment of damage casual agent, and type of data collection. Any products (hardcopy or electronic) using these data sets shall clearly indicate their source. If the user has modified the data in any way, they are obligated to describe the modifications on all products. The user specifically agrees not to misrepresent these data sets, nor to imply that changes made were approved by the USDA Forest Service. | 2017-10-31 11:27:27 |
