How do I download TIGER data from the internet so it shows on my<br />

farm maps?<br />

Note: This section will only cover how to download the data from the internet.<br />

Before you can see this data in JDOffice, you will need to set the TIGER Info<br />

Preferences. For information on this, refer to “TIGER® Data” on page 102.<br />

Now that JDOffice is ready to display the data, you need to download it from the U.S.<br />

Census Bureau’s web site. After opening the internet, enter the following URL:<br />

http://www.census.gov/geo/www/tiger/index.html.<br />

The U. S. Census Bureaus’ TIGER web site will open. Near the top, you will need to click<br />

on the link UA Census 2000 TIGER/Line® Files (Most recent version.) This page is an<br />

overview of TIGER files and how they are categorized.<br />

Each state is given a 2-digit FIPS (Federal Information Processing Standards) code; each<br />

county is given a 3-digit FIPS code. The files names consist of the letters TGR + the state<br />

code + the county code.<br />

TIGER maps are downloaded by county, so you will need to know the 3-digit county FIPS<br />

code for each county you want to download. To learn this, scroll down the page to the<br />
