  • National Atlas of the United States

    Metadata Updated: February 12, 2019

    The National Atlas contributes to our knowledge of the environmental, resource, demographic, economic, social, political, and historical dimensions of American life. It includes products and services designed to stimulate children and adults to visualize and understand complex relationships between environments, places, and people. Unlike the previous Atlas, this version is largely in digital format. With a web browser and Internet connection, users are able to make their own personal maps. Multimedia and printed maps, as well as metadata and scientific articles are also available.
