Data Quality Information:
Logical Consistency Report:
The data comprise the surficial features for NTS 83K/NE derived from fieldwork and LiDAR, bare-earth digital elevation model data (unpublished) interpretation.
Completeness Report:
The data represent surficial geology interpretations based on Light Detection and Ranging bare-earth data, orthorectified aerial photographs and previously published mapping in the area.
Positional Accuracy:
Horizontal Positional Accuracy:
Horizontal Positional Accuracy Report:
We estimate the accuracy of the surface-feature interpretations to be better than +/- 100 m on the ground, based on informed judgement of the effects of all combined map-production errors. No formal accuracy check verified the interpretation.
Lineage:
Process Step:
Process Description:

Our processes included

1. making a mosaic and relief shading the LiDAR for complete coverage of NTS 83K/NE;

2. digitizing polygons and line features across the LiDAR image of NTS 83K/NE using ArcGIS;

3. labelling spatial features;

4. checking the quality of the digital file; and

5. proofreading the text.
