Content is derived from USGS national geospatial databases. The data is owned and hosted by the USGS, but does not preclude using data sources owned and hosted by other organizations, provided that these sources have been approved by the USGS data program.
The data was extracted and updated according to standards set by the USGS.
Each layer is extracted from the USGS national geospatial databases.
This product is compiled to meet National Map Accuracy Standards (NMAS). NMAS horizontal accuracy requires that at least 90 percent of well-defined points tested are within 0.02 inch of the true position.
Vertical accuracy is not applicable to this dataset.

Transportation, FRA Railroads
Vector digital data
Railroads are acquired annually from the FRA. Rail lines and sidings are converted into the National Transportation Dataset. The rail lines layer represents the freight lines of the nation's railroad system. The data set covers all 50 states and the District of Columbia, as well as territories and possessions of the United States. No rail lines exist in American Samoa, Guam, Northern Mariana Islands, and the Virgin Islands of the US.

Transportation, FAA Airports, Runways, Seaplane Bases, Heliports
Vector digital data
Airport points and runway polygons are for Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)-recognized public and private airports in the United States. USGS updates the National Transportation Dataset (NTD) airports, runways, heliports, and seaplane bases approximately bi-monthly using change detection of FAA aviation files. In April 2020, USGS started creating the seaplane base and heliport layers. FAA is the primary source for seaplane bases and heliports. The National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency provided heliport updates for IN, KY, MI, MS, OH, and TN. Digital data were inspected for attribute accuracy, spatial accuracy, and completeness.

Transportation, Recreational Trails
Vector digital data
Recreational trails were first added to US Topo maps in 2013. The trails displayed on the US Topo are from multiple government agencies. Accuracy and currency vary by source and are the responsibility of the data owner. USGS evaluates the authoritativeness of the source but does not independently verify data accuracy. USGS does not modify the trails data except to remove duplicate trails and in some cases trails coincident with roads. Users should always consult local agencies for the most current trail information. This is not a complete dataset and is subject to change at any time. Content will be added as data become available from land management agencies and other authoritative sources. This metadata section documents data sources for all maps, not this specific map. Trails listed here may not be present on all relevant maps due to schedule differences between data delivery and US Topo production schedules. US Topo does not portray access and travel management information about specific trails. Feature-level metadata is not provided in the US Topo product and there is no link between a line on the map and the source of that specific trail. Trails on federal lands were provided by U.S. Forest Service (USFS), National Park Service (NPS), U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), Bureau of Land Management (BLM), and the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA). The sources of National Scenic Trails (NST) include: Continental Divide NST provided by the Continental Divide Trail Coalition in cooperation with the USFS; New England NST provided by NPS and the Appalachian Mountain Club; Ice Age NST provided by the volunteer organization Ice Age Trail Alliance in cooperation with NPS and Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources; Pacific Crest NST provided by USFS; Appalachian NST published by the Appalachian Trail Conservancy in cooperation with NPS and USFS; North Country NST provided by NPS; Arizona NST data published by AZGEO Clearinghouse in cooperation with USFS; Pacific Northwest NST provided by USFS; Natchez Trace NST provided by NPS; Florida NST provided by the USFS; Potomac Heritage NST provided by NPS. National Scenic Trails will have breaks in the network. This is due to lack of coverage provided by the trail source or a removal of trails coincident with roads. In some cases, USGS will replace a segment of NST on federal or state lands if the land management agency provides a more accurate trail centerline than the original NST source. The replaced segment will be designated as a National Scenic Trail. Trails from state partners are included and provided by the State departments of Natural Resources, Parks and Recreation, Parks and Wildlife, or similar departments. This data includes AK, AL, AR, CA, CO, CT, DC, DE, FL, HI, IA, ID, IN, KY, MA, MD, MI, MO, NC, ND, NE, NJ, NY, OH, PA, SD, TN, TX, UT, VA, VT, WA, WI, WV. Additional state partner data will be integrated into the Trails dataset over time and may not be listed here. Some US Topo products may display trails provided by the International Mountain Bicycling Association (IMBA); however, IMBA trails are being phased out of USGS products and will not be shown on future versions of the map.

The primary dataset source is Census Bureau MAF/TIGER database extracts in the form of TIGER/Line Shapefiles. The TIGER/Line shapefiles and related database files are an extract of selected geographic and cartographic information from the U.S. Census Bureau's Master Address File/Topologically Integrated Geographic Encoding and Referencing (MAF/TIGER) Database (MTDB). The MTDB represents a seamless national file with no overlaps or gaps between parts, however, each TIGER/Line shapefile is designed to stand alone as an independent dataset, or they can be combined to cover the entire nation. The U.S. Geological Survey filters Census roads to remove driveways and short local unnamed road segments which are less than 500 feet in length. The USGS National Transportation Dataset functional road classification system is applied to the Census datasets. The functional road class includes, limited access highway, secondary highway, local connector, local road, 4wd, tunnel, ferry route, and closed. Closed roads were approved in 2020 to align with USFS schema and will be incorporated into the NTD in 2021. The original TIGER/Line Shapefile products are not copyrighted however TIGER/Line and Census TIGER are registered trademarks of the U.S. Census Bureau. The horizontal spatial accuracy information present in the TIGER/Line shapefiles is provided for the purposes of statistical analysis and census operations only and the data may not be suitable for high-precision measurement applications. Full metadata for TIGER/Line shapefiles is available from U.S. Census Bureau. Other sources are the U.S. Forest Service (USFS) and National Park Service (NPS) road datasets.

All geospatial content is taken from national geospatial databases under the stewardship of USGS data programs. The NAIP imagery is provided by a seamless tile service that delivers image data at the resolution and quality of the source imagery. The raster and vector data, including grids and collar information, are processed using ESRI ArcGIS software and exported. Map formatting is performed using a custom application, which includes post-processing to embed the metadata XML document.
