     <Description>
         <Abstract>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) Database (MTDB).  The MTDB represents a
             seamless national file with no overlaps or gaps between parts, however, each TIGER/Line File is designed
             to stand alone as an independent data set, or they can be combined to cover the entire nation.  The Area
             Hydrography Shapefile contains the geometry and attributes of both perennial and intermittent area
             hydrography features, including ponds, lakes, oceans, swamps (up to the U.S. nautical three-mile limit),
             glaciers, and the area covered by large rivers, streams, and/or canals that are represented as
             double-line drainage.  Single-line drainage water features can be found in the Linear Hydrography
             Shapefile (LINEARWATER.shp).  Linear water features includes single-line drainage water features and
             artificial path features, where they exist, that run through double-line drainage features such as
             rivers, streams, and/or canals, and serve as a linear representation of these features.</Abstract>
         <Purpose>In order for others to use the information in the Census MAF/TIGER database in a geographic
             information system (GIS) or for other geographic applications, the Census Bureau releases to the public
             extracts of the database in the form of TIGER/Line Shapefiles.</Purpose>
