The detailed layer is for larger-scale reference. A generalized version for small-scale display, with its own metadata, is listed as extra downloads. The map service serves the generalized boundaries and the facility points.

These data are a polygon feature class that represents the administrative boundaries of the US Forest Service Research and Development Stations. These territories consist of a collection of states' geographic areas, within which all research and development facilities and lands are managed by a station headquarters.
