Vector data use ESRI formats of ARC Export files and shape files. Raster files, such as images and DEMs, are GeoTiffs, .bils, or ARC/INFO Grids. Many of the .tif files have been compressed using MrSid, making their file extensions .sid. Non-spatial socio-economic data is provided in the form of ASCII text files and Excel files. All the files have been zipped with WinZip for downloading.
