Description:
Abstract:
This GIS dataset depicts the surficial geology of NTS map area 84O south (point features). The data were created in geodatabase format and output for public distribution in shapefile format. The map was prepared by airphoto interpretation of 1:60 000-scale images flown in 1994. There was no ground-truthing.
Purpose: For query and analysis of the surficial geology of NTS 84O/S in GIS format.
Supplemental Information:
These data comprise the point features of Alberta Geological Survey Map 423, Surficial Geology of the South Whitesand River Area, Alberta (NTS 84O/S). In English.

Data Quality Information:
Logical Consistency Report:
Data comprise the surficial features derived from 1:60 000-scale airphoto interpretation. The authoring geologist made visual checks of the attributes and a third party checked plotted versions of the data.
Completeness Report: Data were compiled through 1:60 000-scale airphoto interpretation.
Positional Accuracy:
Horizontal Positional Accuracy:
Horizontal Positional Accuracy Report:
Accuracy of the surface feature interpretations was estimated to be better than +/- 150 m on the ground, based on informed judgement of the effects of all combined map production errors. No formal accuracy check was conducted to verify the interpretation was correct. The RMS error during georeferencing of the Mylar was less than +/- 50 m.
