Experimental Placefile

I have been working on an experimental city placefile (called "City Pack") that uses a combination of the following three maps:

National Atlas United States Wall Map
Rand McNally M Series Wall Map
GeoNova United States Wall Map

For both the National Atlas and the Rand McNally maps, all cities above population 2,000 are included in the placefile. All cities above population 5,000 on the GeoNova map are also included in the placefile.

So far only four states are finished: Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, and Wisconsin. Kansas and Missouri are partially completed.

I haven't been able to decide whether the cities at the second zoom level should be cities above population 50,000 or cities above population 25,000. Let me know your thoughts in the comments.

Check back for updates.
