Abstract |
This dataset includes information
gathered in the field. Fieldwork was completed in the fall of 2005 through
spring of 2006. It includes approximately 322 field observation sites within
Mille Lacs County and contains a field description of each site, the dominant
type of material encountered, the source of information, type of site, unit
thickness, and overburden thickness. |

Abstract |
This dataset includes
information gathered in the field. Fieldwork was completed in the fall of
2005 through spring of 2006. It includes approximately 322 field observation
sites within Mille Lacs County and contains a field description of each site,
the dominant type of material encountered, the source of information, type of
site, unit thickness, and overburden thickness. |
||
Purpose |
To summarize the field
observations. These observations were made to confirm air photo
interpretation that identified potential aggregate bearing landforms. |

|
||
Completeness |
The data points were
gathered at the location where field observations took place. Additional information
is given in the Lineage section. |
||
Horizontal Positional Accuracy |
The differential correction
of the GPS unit for GPS located sites is +/- 2 meters. Some point locations
were located on a 1:24000 USGS topographic map. |
||
Vertical Positional Accuracy |
Not applicable. |
||
Lineage |
A GPS unit was used to
determine the locations of some of the data points. These points were then
downloaded and slightly revised based on field observations, topographic
maps, and aerial photographs. The GPS unit (with differential correction) is
accurate to approximately a few meters. Other points were located on 1:24000
USGS topographic maps and 1:40000 aerial photographs. These coordinates were
then checked with field notes and topographic maps to assure accuracy. |
