      Process Step:
        Process Description:
          Washington State's U.S. Military Reservations were digitized in Microstation from USGS Quadrangles and other government provided resources to produce the statewide DGN file, gisre12.dgn. The DGN file was converted to an Arc/Info coverage with the "IGDSARC" command and reprojected to geographic coordinates with the "PROJECTDEFINE" and "PROJECT" commands. An ESRI shape file was created in ArcView.
