Data_Quality_Information:

Attribute_Accuracy:

Attribute_Accuracy_Report:

The attribute accuracy is estimated to be "good". If a higher proof of data accuracy is required, do not use these data. User is advised to fully and carefully read the 'Distribution Liability' section of this metadata before using these data.

Logical_Consistency_Report: ARC/INFO Arc-Node topology exists.

Completeness_Report: Data set is complete.

Positional_Accuracy:

Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:

Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:

Horizontal accuracy varies depending on the source of individual components within the data. Data derived from USGS data (DLGs, DEMs, DOQQs) are assumed to meet National Map Accuracy standards. Data produced from real-time GPS (Global Positioning System) field data is assumed to be spatially accurate to within 3-5 meters.

Lineage:

Process_Step:

Process_Description:

These data were created using the ARC/INFO command LATTICECONTOUR using USGS DEM data for Santa Rosa Island. The <interval> used was 20, and the <base contour> was 0. The resulting CONTOUR item was populated with the value of each contour in meters.

Entity_and_Attribute_Information:

Overview_Description:

Entity_and_Attribute_Overview:

The first four items in the polygon attribute table (PAT) and the first seven items in the arc attribute table (AAT) are automatically generated by ARC/INFO software. Contact Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI) for detailed descriptions of their internal file structure. The CONTOUR item is a numeric field that is populated by the value of the contour in meters. Values range from 0 meters to 460 meters.
