Distributed under RIGIS License. Secondary distribution of digital data restricted. Credits to RIGIS as data source requested.
Use_Constraints:
Exact legal boundaries as written in RI Public Law may vary slightly from the U.S. Census TIGER line geography used as a basis for spatial representation of features in this data set. U.S. Census TIGER line data may not be fully compatible with RIGIS and other spatial data registered on a more exact or geodetically true reference system.
