- Data Quality Information:
- Logical Consistency Report:
- Glacially streamlined features and lateral boundaries were digitized in the direction of ice flow. The other features represent non-topological, linear features. Line features may cross without intersecting (i.e. features may overlap).
- Completeness Report: The data have been thoroughly checked against the original map for fidelity and completeness.
- Positional Accuracy:
- Horizontal Positional Accuracy:
- Horizontal Positional Accuracy Report:
- Visual examination of the registered digital data against the paper map indicates the positional accuracy is +/- 350 m.
- Lineage:
- Process Step:
- Process Description: Polylines were digitized and attributed by AGS based on Map 178.
