Historical Places of North Dakota These data extracted from the United States Geological Survey (USGS) GNIS database of historical places of the United States and is in the public domain. Formatted by Garnett J. Zsedeny for noncommercial use only. Longtitude and latitude are given so that locations can be plotted using the Census Tiger Map Server, URL: http://www.census.gov/cgi-bin/gazetteer. The best plots can be obtained with this system because with some effort local roads down to the township level can be plotted making it easy to drive to any place that roads allow. However, the latitude and longitude must be converted to whole degrees and decimels versus degrees, minutes and seconds used by the USGS. The conversion is degrees + minutes/60 + seconds/3600. It can also be easily done using a scientific calculator.
