Description:
AGS provided to GISmo Solutions Ltd. a scanned, roughly georeferenced (NAD83, zone 12) TIFF image of
Map 180. This image was further rubber sheeted using an analytical method derived by GISmo, using
between 100 and 250 control points (depending on the quality of the image), to correspond to IRS
imagery (also provided by AGS).

Process step:
Description:
Geological features were captured using on screen digitizing, at a scale of 1:6000, into a geodatabase
feature data class. The feature data class was then exported to ArcInfo coverage format. Polygon
features were captured using on screen digitizing, at a scale of 1:6000, into a geodatabase feature
data class. The feature class was then exported to ArcInfo coverage format. An IDENTITY was
performed on coverage arcs with lake polygons to flag those arcs that occur within lakes, major
rivers, islands or wetlands. These arcs were tagged as "Not mapped; assumed".
