Attribute_Accuracy:

Attribute_Accuracy_Report:: The attributes are accurate as entered by employees of the Bureau of Land Management.

Logical_Consistency_Report:

Completeness_Report: The polygon areas are within the Rawlins Field Office.

Positional_Accuracy:

Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:

Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:: The accuracy is unknown. It was digitized from 1:24000 quads which had the sites located on a paper quad and transposed to mylar, then digitized. The quads were then merged into the 100K.

Vertical_Positional_Accuracy:

Vertical_Positional_Accuracy_Report: There is no vertical component to this data.
