Data Quality Information:
Logical Consistency Report:
Digital point data of surficial features derived from field work and aerial photograph interpretation. The authoring geologist made visual checks of the attributes, and a third party checked the plotted versions of the data.
Completeness Report:
Data were compiled initially through air photo interpretation and were verified in select locations during field mapping. No fewer than 300 field sites were visited during the course of mapping.
Positional Accuracy:
Horizontal Positional Accuracy:
Horizontal Positional Accuracy Report:
Accuracy of the surface feature interpretations is estimated to be better that +/- 100 m on the ground, based on informed judgement of the effects of all combined map production errors. No formal accuracy check had been conducted to verify the interpretation is correct; however, field site data serve to provide control on interpretation. Site locations were measured with handheld GPS units, whose error was estimated at better than +/- 10 m on the ground. RMS error during georeferencing of the scanned image was less than +/- 10 m.
Lineage:
Process Step:
Process Description:

Process includes

1. Air photo interpretation

2. Scanned each 1:60 000-scale air photo in full colour at 300 dpi JPEG

3. Georeferenced and edgematched images using hydrography and roads for control

4. Digitized point features from each image individually, reconciled edge discrepancies

5. Labelled spatial features

6. Quality check, proofreading
