Abstract: This GIS dataset is a GIS version of AGS Map 178, polygon features, as mapped at 1:250,000-scale by Fenton and Andriashek. Digitizing was originally done by Prairie Farm Rehabilitation Administration (PFRA). The data were supplied to AGS by PFRA in Arc/Info coverage format (map polygon features only). Data were subsequently checked and edited by AGS.

Abstract:
This GIS dataset is a GIS version of AGS Map 178, polygon features, as mapped at 1:250,000-scale by Fenton and
Andriashek. Digitizing was originally done by Prairie Farm Rehabilitation Administration (PFRA). The data
were supplied to AGS by PFRA in Arc/Info coverage format (map polygon features only). Data were subsequently
checked and edited by AGS.
Purpose:
To make the surficial geology of the Sand River area available for use in a geographic information system.

Measure description:
Evaluation method description:
Map was scanned as 24-bits, 500 resolution jpeg and converted to 8-bitt tiff file for performing
registration procedure in ArcINFO. 10 to 30 control points were used for registration to achieve an
average RMS error of 15 m. Visual examination of the registered digital data against the provincial
1:250 000-scale digital base data indicates the positional accuracy is +/- 350 m.

Description:
Polygons were compared to 1:250,000-scale original map and, where necessary, edited to match the
source map. Polygons were coded with a map label using a lookup table join on the unit symbol field.
