Native_Data_Set_Environment: Microsoft Windows XP Version 5.1 (Build 2600) Service Pack 2; ESRI ArcCatalog 9.3.1.1850 Data_Quality_Information: Attribute_Accuracy: Attribute_Accuracy_Report: Not available. Depends on the accuracy of the GCDB. Logical_Consistency_Report: Data has been checked for topological consistency. There are no dangling Arcs, unlabeled polygons, or other topological errors. Completeness_Report: Portions of the Wyoming have never been surveyed and are not included in this dataset. Level 5 & 6 survey? Positional_Accuracy: Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy: Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report: Generally, the user can assume the accuracy to be not less than 1:24000 or +- 50 ground feet. However,the following paragraph which is taken from the GCDB User's Guide on the Wyoming Geographic Information Advisory Council's GCDB Internet Page addresses limitations of GCDB data. These limitations also apply to the GIS/PLSS data layer. Wyoming's GCDB data was generated using the most recent official BLM survey records and in some cases private survey records provided by the Forest Service. The quality of these surveys vary widely. Correspondingly, the accuracy of the coordinates generated varies widely. GCDB is designed to maintain the spatial relationships as depicted on our official (legal) records. Any errors in the data are distributed in an unpredictable manner. Given this, the user must be aware that any acreages which this data may allow to be calculated are legally invalid. Vertical_Positional_Accuracy: Vertical_Positional_Accuracy_Report: There is no vertical component for this data. Lineage: Source_Information: Source_Contribution: Bureau of Land Management, Wyoming Process_Step: Process_Description: This dataset is derived from the GDCB database. The following is an excerpt from the BLM's GCDB User's Manual (contact: Milbert Krohn, 307-775-6225). GCDB is generated from official BLM survey records and control coordinates of varying accuracy. GCDB data includes an estimate of the positional accuracy of the coordinates. This estimate is based on residual errors in adjusting survey data between known coordinates. This data allows the GIS user to determine suitability of the GCDB for various applications. GCDB data collection in Wyoming was initiated in September 1990. At that time, the Public Land Survey System Coordinate Computation Software (PCCS) was used for coordinate generation. In May of 1993, a second, and vastly improved, generation of GCDB software named Geographic Measurement Management (GMM) was released. GCDB is not a legal data base but rather attempts to maintain the spatial relationships as depicted on the legal survey records. The reliability of GCDB coordinates is dependent upon the quality of the data used to generate it which in many cases is poor. Given this, the user should be aware acreages which can be generated from GCDB data rarely reflect the legal acreages from the official survey records and are therefore invalid.
