Data Quality Information
- Attribute Accuracy Report
-
- Report Content is derived from USGS national geospatial databases. The data is owned and hosted by the USGS, but does not preclude
using data sources owned and hosted by other organizations, provided that these sources have been approved by the USGS
data
program.
- Quantitative Attribute Accuracy Assessment
-
- Attribute Accuracy Value
- Attribute Accuracy Explanation
- Horizontal Positional Accuracy Report
-
- Report This US product is compiled to meet National Map Accuracy Standards (NMAS). NMAS horizontal accuracy requires that at least
90 percent of well-defined points tested are within 0.02 inch of the true position. In this product, the projection line,
and
grids are believed to meet NMAS. Positional accuracy of the other data layers is less controllable because of diversity
of data
sources, and may not meet NMAS.
- Quantitative Horizontal Positional Accuracy Assessment

- Horizontal Positional Accuracy Value
- Horizontal Positional Accuracy Explanation
- Vertical Positional Accuracy Report
-
- Report >Vertical accuracy is not applicable to this dataset.
- Quantitative Vertical Positional Accuracy Assessment
-
- Vertical Positional Accuracy Value
- Vertical Positional Accuracy Explanation
- Logical Consistency Report Data is comprised of polygons with segments making up inner and outer boundaries that end to end completely enclose an area.
No
duplicate features exist.
- Completeness Report Each layer is extracted from the USGS national geospatial databases.
