This file is a digital geospatial Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI) ArcGIS feature class that contains point features of places of worship in Cook County, Illinois. A place of worship point feature is based upon the centroid of the complete property boundary of a place of worship polygon feature. Where a place of worship is constituted by a multi-part polygon, the place of worship point is located in a centralized location between all the polygons that constitute that complete cultural feature area. This dataset is projected using the Transverse Mercator map projection. The grid coordinate system used is the Illinois State Plane Coordinate System (Zone Number 1201), NAD83 with ground coordinates expressed in U.S. Survey Feet. |
