TIGER/Line Shapefile, 2014, county, Baldwin County, AL, Topological Faces (Polygons With All Geocodes) County-based Shapefile
The TIGER/Line
shapefiles and related database files (.dbf) are an extract of selected geographic
and cartographic information from the U.S. Census Bureau's Master Address File /
Topologically Integrated Geographic Encoding and Referencing (MAF/TIGER) Database
(MTDB). The MTDB represents a seamless national file with no overlaps or gaps between
parts, however, each TIGER/Line shapefile is designed to stand alone as an
independent data set, or they can be combined to cover the entire nation. Face refers
to the areal (polygon) topological primitives that make up MTDB. A face is bounded by
one or more edges; its boundary includes only the edges that separate it from other
faces, not any interior edges contained within the area of the face. The Topological
Faces Shapefile contains the attributes of each topological primitive face. Each face
has a unique topological face identifier (TFID) value. Each face in the shapefile
includes the key geographic area codes for all geographic areas for which the Census
Bureau tabulates data for both the 2010 Census and the annual estimates and surveys.
The geometries of each of these geographic areas can then be built by dissolving the
face geometries on the appropriate key geographic area codes in the Topological Faces
Shapefile.
