Data Quality Information
Logical Consistency Report
No duplicate features are present.
Completeness Report
After processing, the data set is checked for drawing display and number of records and file sizes compared with source materials. Line simplification/smoothing was performed with a tolerance of 0.005 decimal degrees and a coordinate reduction using the Douglas-Peucker method with a tolerance of 0.0003 decimal degrees. Very small polygons were eliminated when the combination of geographic codes existed elsewhere.
Horizontal Positional Accuracy Report
The geospatial part of this data set was extracted from the 2000 Census TIGER/Line™ files, and then generalized to tolerance of 0.0003 decimal degrees.
