United States State Plane Zones (NAD 1983) represents the State Plane Coordinate System (SPCS) Zones for the 1983 North American Datum within United States.
Several State Plane Coordinate System zones are not shown in this dataset, including Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, American Samoa, Guam, and Louisiana's offshore zone.
This dataset is a part of the 2008 ESRI Data Maps collection.
Purpose
United States State Plane Zones (NAD 1983) is generalized and an approximation of the actual State Plane Coordinate System zone boundaries for the 1983 North American Datum. It is intended for visual reference at small and medium map scales. Please check with state authorities if you have a question about a zone boundary.

Data Quality Information
Logical Consistency Report
The shapefile is converted to SDC (Smart Data Compression) format using either ESRI SDC Data Development Kit Professional 2 (DDKP2) or tools in ArcGIS. The SDC data set is then loaded into ArcSDE to verify and validate the geometry. The data set boundaries are approximations of the actual State Plane Coordinate System zone boundaries.
Completeness Report
After processing, the data set is checked for drawing display and number of records and file sizes compared with source materials.
Horizontal Positional Accuracy Report
The horizontal positional accuracy is unknown.
