Data Quality 

Scope of quality information
Resource level  dataset




Data quality report - Conceptual consistency
Measure description Excellent, from GPS locations collected during August 2009. Data was verified by matching with stream network generated by 1 meter LIDAR DEM.




Lineage 

Process step
When the process occurred 2009-08-26 00:00:00
Description Data was collected by GPS in 2009. Data was verified by comparing with 1 meter resolution DEM from 2008 LiDAR, and stream network generated by the liDAR. Point locations were adjusted to match the generated stream network. Original GPS points are available at hja27/strgage_old and hja83/strgage shapefiles.
Rationale to obtain high quality data to match new LiDAR DEM data.




Process step
When the process occurred 2011-02-15 00:00:00
Description altitiute was determined by extraction from 1 meter DEM. New Lat/longs were populated by projecting to a geographic coordinate system.
