Description
Abstract
The data set represented by this metadata consists of geospatial and 
attribute information for buildings (commercial, public and residences) 
located in Charlottesville, Virginia that were originally mapped by the 
Sanborn Map Company in the year 1920 (the data set is specific for the 
year 1920).  Each building represented in the personal geodatabase has 
attribute information that indicates building use, height and address 
information.  Each building was digitzed using a scanned image that was 
georeferenced using a digital orthophoto.

Purpose
The dataset was created for the purpose of (1) providing spatial and attribute 
data necessary for studying land use distribution and change; (2) provide 
specific street address information, and (3) provide building height information 
for use in 3-D visualization.
