Data Quality Information:


Attribute accuracy:
Attribute accuracy report:
Attribute accuracy is tested by manually comparing hard
copy plots of the digital data with source materials or by
interactively querying and verifying on the screen.

Logical consistency report:
The data has been checked to make sure that all intended
polygons are closed, that there are no unintended
undershoots, overshoots or dangles and that there is only
only label point per polygon. This does not preclude the
presence of one or more of these errors.

Completeness report:
This coverage is in draft format. Verification by the
appropriate BLM Field Office is needed.

Positional accuracy:
Horizontal positional accuracy:
Horizontal positional accuracy report:
Approximately + or - 40 feet. Test by visual comparison of
hard copy check plots against source material and/ or
verfying the location of the data on screen relative to
other data layers in the same geographic area.

Vertical positional accuracy:
Vertical positional accuracy report:
None.

Process step:
Process description:
Data were compiled on 1:24000 scale USGS paper quads and
digitized from those quads. Some of the original ArcInfo
coverages were converted to shapefiles and edited in
ArcView while others were edited in ArcEdit. Shapefiles
were converted back coverages and Individual files were
then merged into a single statewide coverage. Data was
checked on screen against other data layers in the same
geographic area.
