Description:

Abstract:

This coverage contains arcs that describe every second line of latitude and longitude in the region of Europe including Turkey.

Purpose:

To delineate every second line of latitude and longitude in the region of Europe including Turkey as a locational reference to produce a map and an Adobe Acrobat Portable Document file of the map.
