Data Quality Information:
Logical Consistency Report:
Stream channels, eskers and wind direction were digitized in the flow direction indicated by Alberta Geological Survey Map 139. Meltwater erosion break-in-slope lines, meltwater channels and scarps were digitized so the right side of the arc was downslope or toward the centre of the channel. The rest of the linear data represent non-topological linear features. Line features may cross without intersecting.
Completeness Report:
The data have been thoroughly checked against the original map for fidelity and completeness. The original map does not cover all of NTS 83F, so data are absent in these unmapped areas.
Positional Accuracy:
Horizontal Positional Accuracy:
Horizontal Positional Accuracy Report:
Visual examination of the registered digital data against the paper map indicates the positional accuracy is +/- 90 m.

Process Step:
Process Description: Lines were digitized and attributed by Alberta Geologial Survey based on Map 139.
