These data depict minor miscellaneous features of Hovenweep National Monument, Cajon Ruins Group Unit. These features are, ladders, sign, stairs and a trough. The data layer described by this metadata was created by digitizing two individual map sheets provided by the park. These maps were originally created from aerial photography taken 8/17/87. The maps sheet were digitized in August, 2000. Features and their attributes were then selected and put into separate Arc/Info coverages. Each coverage theme was then appended into one Arc/Info coverage for each theme. The item field, "Type" was added to this coverage which conatains the type of feature represented, i.e., ladder, stair, etc. Each coverage was then registered using GPS data points and the Arc/Info Transform command to convert each into a UTM projection. Separate coverage layers for this unit include: contours, elevation points, fences, roads, misc and ruins. Arc coverages have been converted to ArcView shapefiles for use by the park. The scale is 1:50 and the contour interval is one foot.
