				<gco:CharacterString>The TIGERweb application allows users to access and view
					geospatial features, geographic area information, and associated attributes from
					the U.S. Census Bureau Topologically Integrated Geographic Encoding and
					Referencing System (TIGER) geodatabase. The TIGERweb is intended to meet the
					needs of users inside and outside the Census Bureau for access to geospatial
					data contained within the TIGER geodatabase without requiring the use of a GIS
					and the downloading of data. This application allows the users to view linear
					features, area water and boundaries for legal and statistical geographic
					entities. The TIGERweb map layers are grouped by the following geographies:
					American Indian, Alaska Native, and Native Hawaiian Areas, Tribal Census Tracts
					and Block Groups, American Indian Joint-Use Areas, Tribal Designated Statistical
					Areas, State Designated Tribal Statistical Areas, Oklahoma Tribal Statistical
					Areas, Census Regions and Divisions, Hydrography, Combined Statistical Areas,
					Micropolitan New England City and Town Areas, Metropolitan New England City and
					Town Areas, New England City and Town Area Divisions, Combined New England City
					and Town Areas, Metropolitan and Micropolitan Statistical Areas and Related
					Statistical Areas, Military Installations, PUMAs, UGAs, and ZCTAs States and
					Counties Transportation (Roads and Railroads), Urban Areas, Legislative Areas,
					Census Designated Places, Places and County Subdivisions, Incorporated Places,
					School Districts, Consolidated Cities, Metropolitan Divisions, 2010 Census Urban
					Clusters, 2010 Census Urbanized Areas, Census Regions, Census Divisions, State
					Legislative Districts - Lower (the state House of Representatives), State
					Legislative Districts - Upper (the state Senate), Congressional Districts,
					Census Tracts and Blocks. Labels are included for the map layers.
					
					This application contains the latest version of the geographic extent of legally
					defined geographic areas as reported, generally reflecting the boundaries of
					governmental units in effect as of January 1, 2013, or legal and statistical
					area boundaries that have been adjusted and/or corrected since the 2010 Census.
					These layers represent data as of January 1, 2013.
					
					This application consists of three vintages of data. The newest data is found in the
					ACS 2013 vintage, which contains data that reflects the boundaries of legal and statistical
					entities that were in effect on January 1, 2013. Use these boundaries to match the data
					from surveys that use the 2013 geography, like the American Community Survey.
					The ACS 2012 vintage contains data as of January 1,2012 and the 2010 Census
					vintage contains data as of January 1, 2010. </gco:CharacterString>
