Point features will be generated as point shapefiles, linear features will be generated as line shapefiles, and area features will be generated as polygon shapefiles. Any geospatial dataset derived from new or existing geospatial data will be in file/personal geodatabase or shapefile format, along with an explanation of the method used to generate the derived geospatial data. Spatial Coordinate or Survey System will be documented and used, along with a coordinate system projection file for said data.
