Abstract
This point datalayer depicts manufacturing firm locations with associated attribute data for companies throughout the state of Georgia. ARC documentation states that: This theme was created from the Georgia Manufacturing Directory published by the Georgia Department of Industry, Trade Tourism and the Georgia Chamber of Commerce. The directory represents all Georgia-based manufacturers who voluntarily respond to an annual survey. This theme is based on the 2000-2001 Georgia Manufacturing Directory, which is published annually in the Spring.
Purpose
This layer is intended for researchers, students, and policy makers for reference and mapping purposes, and may be used for basic applications such as viewing, querying, and map output production. This layer will provide a basemap for layers related to socio-economic and political anaylsis, statistical enumeration and analysis, or to support graphical overlays and analysis with other spatial data. More advanced user applications may focus on urban and rural land use planning, infrastructure or economic analysis and related areas including defining boundaries, managing assets and facilities, integrating attribute databases with geographic features, spatial analysis, and presentation output.
