• Description : An electronic gazetteer of the United States, from the US Geological Survey database. Level of detail: generally includes features that would be on the USGS 7½ minute (1:24,000 scale) topographic maps. The program uses a very simple DOS interface and allows the user to search not only by the feature name, but to limit the search by many attributes, including state, county, and feature category. The output includes the name of the 7½ minute topographic maps as well as the latitude/longitude coordinates. Also available online
