Went into info and did selected each coverage's pat file, and listed. The items and number of records for each coverage are as follows: ----- 972 RECORD(S) DATAFILE NAME: NSA_MODSUB.PAT 03/02/1999 4 ITEMS: STARTING IN POSITION 1 COL ITEM NAME WDTH OPUT TYP N.DEC ALTERNATE NAME 1 AREA 4 12 F 3 5 PERIMETER 4 12 F 3 9 NSA_MODSUB# 4 5 B - 13 NSA_MODSUB-ID 4 5 B - ----- 44 RECORD(S) ENTER COMMAND >ITEMS DATAFILE NAME: OBS.PAT 03/02/1999 4 ITEMS: STARTING IN POSITION 1 COL ITEM NAME WDTH OPUT TYP N.DEC ALTERNATE NAME 1 AREA 4 12 F 3 5 PERIMETER 4 12 F 3 9 OBS# 4 5 B - 13 OBS-ID 4 5 B - ----- 44 RECORD(S) ENTER COMMAND >ITEMS DATAFILE NAME: FEN.PAT 03/02/1999 4 ITEMS: STARTING IN POSITION 1 COL ITEM NAME WDTH OPUT TYP N.DEC ALTERNATE NAME 1 AREA 4 12 F 3 5 PERIMETER 4 12 F 3 9 FEN# 4 5 B - 13 FEN-ID 4 5 B - ----- 24 RECORD(S) DATAFILE NAME: OJP.PAT 03/02/1999 4 ITEMS: STARTING IN POSITION 1 COL ITEM NAME WDTH OPUT TYP N.DEC ALTERNATE NAME 1 AREA 4 12 F 3 5 PERIMETER 4 12 F 3 9 OJP# 4 5 B - 13 OJP-ID 4 5 B - ----- 17 RECORD(S) DATAFILE NAME: OTA.PAT 03/02/1999 4 ITEMS: STARTING IN POSITION 1 COL ITEM NAME WDTH OPUT TYP N.DEC ALTERNATE NAME 1 AREA 4 12 F 3 5 PERIMETER 4 12 F 3 9 OTA# 4 5 B - 13 OTA-ID 4 5 B - ----- 22 RECORD(S) DATAFILE NAME: YJP.PAT 03/02/1999 4 ITEMS: STARTING IN POSITION 1 COL ITEM NAME WDTH OPUT TYP N.DEC ALTERNATE NAME 1 AREA 4 12 F 3 5 PERIMETER 4 12 F 3 9 YJP# 4 5 B - 13 YJP-ID 4 5 B - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 5. The arc/info export files names did not match the filenames listed in the documentation so: Renamed nsa_modsub nsa-msa Renamed obs nsa-obs renamed fen nsa-fen renamed ojp nsa-ojp renamed ota nsa-oa renamed yjp nsa-yjp 6. Exported each file with the none option for no data compression as follows: export cover nsa-msa nsa-msa none export cover nsa-obs nsa-obs none export cover nsa-fen nsa-fen none export cover nsa-ojp nsa-ojp none export cover nsa-oa nsa-oa none export cover nsa-yjp nsa-yjp none 7. Since file008_te20_nsa_soil_vctr.asc..file013_te20_nsa_soil_vctr.asc are companion files to the arc/info export coverages renamed them as follows: old name new name ------------------------ -------------------- file008_te20_nsa_soil_vctr.asc nsa-msa.ascii file009_te20_nsa_soil_vctr.asc nsa-obs.ascii file010_te20_nsa_soil_vctr.asc nsa-fen.ascii file011_te20_nsa_soil_vctr.asc nsa-ojp.ascii file012_te20_nsa_soil_vctr.asc nsa-oa.ascii file013_te20_nsa_soil_vctr.asc nsa-yjp.ascii 8. renamed file file001_te20_nsa_soil_vctr.asc readme2.txt 9.
