Data Quality Information
Attribute Accuracy Report
Station attributes were obtained from the NREL and were then confirmed via the internet when possible
Quantitative Attribute Accuracy Assessment
Logical Consistency Report
All point records in this dataset are represented by a single coordinate pair and a unique feature identifier. BTS quality checks were to cross reference the place dataset with the state dataset, to determine that the spatial data and attribute data were accurate.
