These two layers represent the graticule of latitude and longitude linework covering Massachusetts
Two layers are available that represent the graticule of latitude
and longitude linework covering Massachusetts:
The MINLL1_ARC attribute table does not contain
any items other than those standard in an arc attribute table.

Download these layers (ESRI Shapefiles): - 1-minute graticule - 10-minute graticule |

- MINLL1_ARC - 1-minute latitude-longitude lines
- MINLL10_ARC - 10-minute latitude-longitude lines
Production
MassGIS used Arc/Info Workstation to GENERATE lines in NAD83 Decimal-Degrees coordinates using the FISHNET option, which were then projected to the Mass. State Plane NAD83 Meters Mainland coordinate system.Attributes
The MINLL10_ARC attribute table contains these items:LATITUDE | Latitude value of the line ("NA" if line is longitudinal) |
LONGITUDE | Longitude value of the line ("NA" if line is latitudinal) |
LINE_0 | Indicates whether the line is a 00 seconds line (i.e. 44 00 00) |
Maintenance
MassGIS is maintaining these layers.
In July 2005 these layers were re-created based on the production method described above. The previous versions were created based on NAD27 coordinates and were projected to NAD83, resulting in a slight shift from the features' true locations.
