Related Spatial Allocation Files - "Old" Surrogates

These files were developed prior to 2002 for use with 1996 base year inventories and inventories derived (e.g. future year projections) from the 1996 base year. They include data from the 1990 census, the North America Land Cover Characteristics, and other spatial sources that produce the 15 spatial surrogates EPA has been using for modeling with the 1996 and derived inventories. They are based on Albers projection. The "new" surrogates are located on a separate page.
