			<abstract>This data set is a spatial representation of the State of New Jersey.  Spatial accuracy was improved upon from earlier state boundary data by integrating features that are coincident with the state boundary from other high quality source data sets.  This data set is temporally accurate to May 2008.  An update is anticipated in July 2009.</abstract>
			<purpose>This data set was developed to produce the most accurate delineation of the state boundary achievable from existing data sources.</purpose>
			<supplinf>Spatially referenced data were derived from the following GIS layers to build municipal boundary lines.  They include:
Delaware Geological Survey - New Jersey/Delaware boundary data through the Delaware River
New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection, Bureau of Geographic Information Systems - New Jersey/New York boundary data for Ellis Island
New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection, Bureau of Geographic Information Systems - land use/landcover data delineation for the New Jersey/New York boundary for Liberty Island
New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection, New Jersey Geological Survey - New Jersey/New York boundary data for the northern border of New Jersey, and New Jersey/New York boundary data through the Hudson River, Kill Van Kull and Raritan Bay, and New Jersey/Delaware boundary data through Delaware Bay
New Jersey Office of Information Technology, Office of Geographic Information Systems - New Jersey/Pennsylvania boundary data, and Atlantic Coast "Three Mile Limit"</supplinf>

				<procdesc>A delineation of the centerline of the Delaware River representing the New Jersey/Pennsylvania boundary was developed for the project.  An inventory of Delaware River islands with state jurisdiction was developed from information in "The Story Of New Jersey's Civil Boundaries 1606 - 1968" by John F. Snyder, Bureau of Geology and Topography, Trenton, New Jersey, 1969.  Using this information, a delineation was generated to represent the centerline of the Delaware River from the New Jersey/New York border to the 12 mile circle at the New Jersey/Delaware border.  
				
The delineation of the centerline of the Delaware River was generated by manually digitizing the river's visible shorelines, interpreted from New Jersey Office of Information Technology, Office of Geographic Information Systems 2002 orthophotography (+/-4 feet).  A centerline was generated from the shorelines utilizing the DUAL COLLAPSE command.  Using the automated centerline as a guide, the final delineation was manually digitized to provide a smoother, more visually suitable centerline.</procdesc>
