http://www.dnr.sc.gov/GIS/descdlg.html

Description:  DLG stands for Digital Line Graph.  They are a type of cartographic map that shows a digital vector or an area surveyed by the United States Geological Society.  DLG's use small, intermediate, and large scales with up to nine smaller categories depending on the scale of the map.  They include many different layers such as boundaries, surface cover, roadways, and hydrography and are used in GIS mapping applications.  This map layer shows the waterways on Beaufort, SC along with roadways, railroads, and parcel boundaries.
