This is a Point data set. It contains the following vector data types (SDTS terminology):
Horizontal positions are specified in geographic coordinates, that is, latitude and longitude. Latitudes are given to the nearest .00001. Longitudes are given to the nearest .00001. Latitude and longitude values are specified in Decimal Degrees.
The horizontal datum used is North American Datum 1927.
The ellipsoid used is CLARKE1866.
The semi-major axis of the ellipsoid used is 6378206.4.
The flattening of the ellipsoid used is 1/294.98.

This ARC/INFO point coverage contains only those data points that could be verified for locational and attribute accuracy by staff of the Indiana Geological Survey. Information regarding the source, accuracy, and processing steps for each data point may be obtained by contacting the Indiana Geological Survey.
Accuracy of the location values that are contained in in_data varies depending upon the source of the original data. Some data points (e.g., core holes and geophysical logs) have surveyed locations and elevations, with a horizontal accuracy of approximately +or- 1ft. Other data, (e.g., some coal drilling records) have a locational accuracy of approximately +or- 10 feet. Information regarding the source, accuracy, and processing steps for each data point may be obtained by contacting the Indiana Geological Survey.
Accuracy of the ground surface elevation and coal elevation values that are contained in in_data varies depending upon the source of the original data. Some data points (e.g., core holes and geophysical logs) have surveyed locations and elevations, with a vertical accuracy of approximately +or- 1ft. Other data, (e.g., some coal drilling records) have a vertical accuracy of approximately +or- 10 feet. Information regarding the source, accuracy, and processing steps for each data point may be obtained by contacting the Indiana Geological Survey.
This dataset does not include confidential data, nor does it include data that could be not be verified for locational and attribute accuracy.
ARC/INFO point topology is present; one label per data point.
