Mexican State Codes
In the past, coordinates for Mexican bandings and encounters were
not entered into the files. As of June 1, 1989, bandings and
encounters in Mexico will be processed using exact coordinates when
possible. If exact coordinates cannot be determined, the three-digit
Mexican State code, which occupies the last three digits of
the longitude field, will be used in addition to region code 748
for the Republic of Mexico.
