Why is this US States resource centered in Algeria?
ReplyZhiyu (Drew) Li 4 years, 6 months ago

ReplyThis shp contains all states as well as overseas territories of the US, which together form a very big bounding box that spans across the world map from west to east. The center of this big bounding box is somewhere in Africa.
