This table lists the map products and summary table available for this Physiographic Area.  Map products are provided in three formats:  1) GeoTIFF, containing georeferenced data that may be imported into a geographic information system (GIS); 2) PDF, for downloading and printing a hard copy of the map; and 3) GIF, for use in presentation software.  If your GIS requires input of projection information for GeoTIFF files, those data are  available in the metadata files for each database.  For the world file required for ArcView click here.   If your system does not have the Acrobat Reader needed to display PDF format, you may download that for free here.  Water coverage in PDF and GIF maps is combined from both USFS and USGS databases.
