Process_Description:
The following steps were performed by ESRI: Downloaded the data set from the Sistemas de Informaci˘n Geogr fica, S.A. de C.V. FTP site.  Renamed attribute names in Spanish to English.  Translated the Spanish values in the OBJETO attribute to English and put them in the POP_RANGE attribute.  Made the attribute values title case that were uppercase.  Added the attribute SQKM and calculated its values.  Converted the data set to SDC.  Created ArcGISr layer file (.lyr), projection file (.prj), and spatial indices.
