  Description:
    Abstract:
      The SAST Arc/Info databse is a comprehensive vector basemap
      of the Upper Mississippi/Missouri River Basin and contains
      attribute data suitable for performing a wide range of
      analysis and for generating thematic maps for coutnies and
      states throughout the flood area. The lakes coverage is a
      comprehensive lakes database for the platte River
      Cooperative Hydrology Study area and was derived from the
      1:100,000 Mississippi/Missouri River Basin hydrology coverage.
    Purpose:
      The purpose of creating the lakes coverage was to have a
      comprehensive lakes database for the COHYST area for use by
      COHYST engineers in hydrologic modeling procedures.
    Supplemental_Information:
      This coverage was clipped to the COHYST area using the
      ArcInfo CLIP command and re-projected from it's original
      projection to stateplane, NAD83 using the ArcInfo PROJECT
      command for use in the Platte River COHYST.

DATA_QUALITY_INFORMATION


  Attribute_Accuracy:
    Attribute_Accuracy_Report:
      Attribute Accuracy from the Missouri/Mississippi River
      Basin 1:100,000 sclae map is estimated to be 98.5%
      accurate. Additional attributes were added to the lakes
      coverage from USGS Quad maps.
  Logical_Consistency_Report:
    No duplicate features are present, no overshoots or
    undershoots. Some polygons when visually compared to the
    HYDRO coverage are too small. This is a shortcoming of the
    ArcInfo clean/build command and/or the original coverage.
  Completeness_Report:
    Data completeness reflects the content of the source
    Digital Line Graph and the capabilites of the ArcInfo
    clean/build commands. Features may have been eliminated or
    generalized due to scale and legibility constraints.
  Positional_Accuracy:
    Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:
      Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:
        The estimate on the accuracy of the original 1:100,000
        scale maps is 0.02 inches.

      Process_Description:
        1:100,000 Quad maps were downloaded and appended using the
        ArcInfo APPEND command. ArcEdit was used to resolve
        edge-matching issues. Attributes were added from USGS Quad
        maps (paper). The coverage was then clipped to the COHYST
        boundary and re-projected to Stateplane, NAD83.
