Data quality info:

Data quality: Scope: Scope: Hierarchy level: Scope code: dataset Report: Absolute external positional accuracy: 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. Result: Quantitative result: Value unit: Base unit: Identifier: Units system: xlink: http://www.bipm.org/en/si/ Value: Report: Completeness commission: Result: unknown Report: Completeness omission: Evaluation method description: Data were compiled initially through air photo interpretation and were verified in selected locations during field mapping. Result: unknown Report: Conceptual consistency: Measure description: Where directionality is present (e.g. 'meltwater channel, flow indicated'), lines were digitized in a consistent direction. Line features intersect only where intended. Visual checks have been made of the attributes by the authoring geologist and plotted versions of the data have been checked by a third party. Result: unknown Lineage: Lineage: Statement: Data were compiled initially through air photo interpretation and were verified in selected locations during field 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) - digitize line features from image - where feature forms polygon boundary, select line from polygon coverage and add to line coverage - label spatial features - quality check, proof-reading Date and time: 2003-01-01T00:00:00 Process step: Process step: Description: Minor edits made to the data include deleting arcs such as flow arrows that had been digitized for cartographic purposes(i.e. they were not physical, geological features). Completed the DESCRIPTION field for previously uncoded arcs (iceberg scours). Date and time: 2008-01-01T00:00:00
