Name of measure:
Horizontal Positional Accuracy
Measure description:
Evaluation method description:
Accuracy of the surface feature interpretations is estimated to be better than +/- 100m on the ground,
based on informed judgement of the effects of all combined map production errors. No formal accuracy
check has been conducted to verify the interpretation is correct, however field site data serve to
provide control on interpretation. Site locations are measured with handheld GPS units, whose error is
estimated at better than +/- 10m on the ground. RMS error during georeferencing of the scanned image is
less than +/- 10m.

Data were compiled intially through air photo interpretation, and were verified in selected locations
during field mapping. No fewer than 100 field sites were visited during the course of mapping.
Process step:
Process step:
Description:
Process includes
- air photo interpretation and transfer to mylar
- scan mylar
- georeference scanned image (6 to 8 control points)
- vectorize the georeferenced image
- clean coverage and build topology
- label spatial features
- quality check, proof-reading
