Data Quality Information
- Attribute Accuracy Report
-
- Report Accurate against Federal information Processing Standards (FIPS), FIPS Publication 6-4, and FIPS-55 at the 100% level for
the codes and base names. The remaining attribute information has been examined but has not been fully tested for accuracy.

- Report The information present in these files is provided for the purposes of statistical analysis and census operations only.
Coordinates in the TIGER/Line files have six implied decimal places, but the positional accuracy of these coordinates is not
as great as the six decimal places suggest. The positional accuracy varies with the source materials used, but generally
the information is no better than the established national map Accuracy standards for 1:100,000-scale maps from the U.S.
Geological Survey (USGS); thus it is NOT suitable for high-precision measurement applications such as engineering problems,
property transfers, or other uses that might require highly accurate measurements of the earth's surface. The USGS 1:100,000-scale
maps met national map accuracy standards and use coordinates defined by the North American Datum, 1983. For the contiguous
48 States, the cartographic fidelity of most of the Redistricting Census 2000 TIGER/Line files, in areas outside the 1980
census Geographic Base File/Dual Independent map Encoding (GBF/DIME) file coverage and selected other large metropolitan areas,
compare favorable with the USGS 1:100,000-scale maps. The Census Bureau cannot specify the accuracy of features inside of
what was the 1980 GBF/DIME-File coverage or selected metropolitan areas. The Census Bureau added updates to the TIGER/Line
files that enumerators annotated on maps sheets prepared from the Census TIGER data base as they attempted to traverse every
street feature shown on the Census 2000 map sheets; the Census Bureau also made other corrections from updated map sheets
supplied by local participants for Census Bureau programs. The locational accuracy of these updates is of unknown quality.
In addition to the Federal, State, and local sources, portions of the files may contain information obtained in part from
maps and other materials prepared by private companies. Despite the fact the TIGER/Line data positional accuracy is not
as high as the coordinate values imply, the six-decimal place precision is useful when producing maps. The precision allows
features that are next to each other on the ground to be placed in the correct position, on the map, relative to each other,
without overlap.

- Logical Consistency Report The feature network of lines (as represented by Record Types 1 and 2) is complete for census purposes. Spatial objects in
TIGER/Line belong to the "Geometry and Topology" (GT) class of objects in the "Spatial Data Transfer Standard" (SDTS) FIPS
Publication 173 and are topologically valid. Node/geometry and topology (GT)-polygon/chain relationships are collected or
generated to satisfy topological edit requirements. These requirements include:
* Complete chains must begin and end at nodes.
* Complete chains must connect to each other at nodes.
* Complete chains do not extend through nodes.
* Left and right GT-polygons are defined for each complete chain element and are consistent throughout the extract process.
* the chains representing the limits of the files are free of gaps.
The Census Bureau performed automated tests to ensure logical consistency and limits of files. All polygons are tested for
closure. The Census Bureau uses its internally developed Geographic Update System to enhance and modify spatial and attribute
data in the Census TIGER data base. Standard geographic codes, such as FIPS codes for states, counties, municipalities, and
places, are used when encoding spatial entities. The Census Bureau performed spatial data tests for logical consistency of
the codes during the compilation of the original Census TIGER data base files. Most of the Codes themselves were provided
to the Census Bureau by the USGS, the agency responsible for maintaining FIPS 55. Feature attribute information has been examined
but has not been fully tested for consistency.
- Completeness Report Data completeness of the TIGER/Line files reflects the contents of the Census TIGER data base at the time the TIGER/Line files
(Redistricting Census 2000 version) were created.

- Process Description In order for others to use the information in the Census TIGER data base in a GIS or for other geographic applications, the
Census Bureau releases periodic extracts of selected information from the Census TIGER data base, organized as topologically
consistent networks. Software (TIGER DB routines) written by the Geography Division allows for efficient access to Census
TIGER system data. TIGER/Line files are extracted from the Census TIGER data base by county or statistical equivalent area.
Census TIGER data for a given county or statistical equivalent area is then distributed among 17 fixed length record
ASCII files, each one containing attributes for either line, polygon, or landmark geographic data types. The Census Bureau
has released various versions of the TIGER/Line files since 1988, with each version having more updates (feature and feature
names, address ranges and ZIP Codes, coordinate updates, revised field definitions, etc.) than the previous version.
