I have some sympathy for your position, but I was told explicitly by
the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation that their
shapefile is to be considered primary over the signs in the field.
Thus, mapping NYS DEC Forest Lands in the field is 0 times more value
than their authoritative shapefile, which I've imported.
