Description:
Abstract:
This GIS dataset depicts the surficial geology of the NTS map area 83P Northeast (point features). The data are created in ArcInfo format and output for public distribution in Arc export (E00) and shapefile formats.
Purpose: For query and analyses of the surficial geology of NTS 83P/NE in GIS format.
Supplemental Information:
This data comprises the point features of Map 243, Surficial Geology of the House River Area, (NTS83P/NE), published by the Alberta Geological Survey. This metadata record was generated based on the ArcInfo coverage version of the data. In English.

Data Quality Information:
Logical Consistency Report:
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.
Completeness Report:
Data were compiled intially through air photo interpretation, and were verified in selected locations during field mapping. No fewer than 100 field sites were visited during the course of mapping.

Positional Accuracy:
Horizontal Positional Accuracy:
Horizontal Positional Accuracy Report:
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.
