How to find SLC data

Instructions

The SLC dataset identifies the attributes of each SLC polygon in a series of related data tables.  These tables are in INFO format, and are bundled with each coverage.  When you import the ARC/INFO EXPORT (*.e00) file, these tables are normally imported as well.  For example, ARC/INFO's IMPORT71 utility places them as a series of dbase files in a subdirectory called "info", at the same level as the directory with the coverage information.

In the example below, the contents of pec001.zip were unzipped into a directory called "pei", and then the pec001.e00 and pec001hydro.e00 files were imported (using IMPORT71) into that same directory.


If you are using ARCVIEW, these data files are accessible as "INFO" files in the "info" directory, as indicated below.
