Process Step:
Process Description:
A scanned image of the original map (TIF) was georeferenced against the 1:250 000 scale hydrography coverage data and rectified in ArcInfo. Twenty-six control points were used to register the image, with a resulting RMS error of 84 m (ground units). Polygon outlines were digitized in "heads-up" mode in ArcEdit from the registered image, and tagged with their descriptive attributes according to the map legend. Built polygon topology in ArcInfo.
