Helena National Forest G.I.S Data
Welcome to the Helena National Forest Geographic Information System Data (GIS) Data Dictionary. The GIS is a computer-based tool for mapping and analyzing objects and events. It combines the power of a database with the visualization capabilities offered by maps. The GIS data provides the power to solve complicated problems, experiment with scenarios and present ideas.
GIS DISCLAIMER:
The Forest Service uses the most current and complete data available. GIS data and product accuracy may vary. They may be: developed from sources of differing accuracy, accurate only at certain scales, based on modeling or interpretation, incomplete while being created or revised, etc. Using GIS products for purposes other than those for which they were created, may yield inaccurate or misleading results. The Forest Service reserves the right to correct, update, modify, or replace GIS products without notification. Please download corresponding metadata when downloading export file data.

TROUBLESHOOTING:
Some folks have had difficulty downloading data from this
site. We have found a couple of reasons for this. Typically this is caused
by your internet settings not being set correctly for downloading this
data. Some FTP servers use a passive ("PASV") mode, while others
do not. Changing Internet Explorer's settings may resolve the issue. If
you are having troubles, go to the Tools menu for Internet Explorer. Click
on the Advanced tab. Under the Browsing sub-category, ensure the setting
Enable folder view for FTP Sites is enabled (box is checked). Next scroll
to the setting Use Passive FTP (for firewall and DSL modem compatibility).
Try a different mode by either checking or unchecking the box. Click the
Apply button. Click the OK button. Retry downloading file(s).
The second possible reason for having trouble downloading these files
is using a web browser other than Internet Explorer. Mozilla and its variations
have been know to cause trouble downloading these files. So where possible
try to download files from this page using Internet Explorer.
