Source information in the aggregate
pit shapefile was collected from the following: field work, soil survey,
topographic maps, aerial 7.5 minute topographic quadrangles , and ASIS
(Aggregate Source Information System). Aggregate pits were identified during
field work in the fall of 2005 through the spring of 2006. Gravel pits were
digitized from U.S. Geological Survey, 7.5 minute topographic quadrangles at
a scale of 1:24000. The age of the quadrangles range from 1967 to 1983, with
some quads photo revised in 1994. The aggregate pits located from the Soil
Survey are from 2004, the date of the published Soil Survey. Aerial
photographs are identified from NAPP (National Aerial Photography Program),
1991-1992, 9 inch by 9 inch color infrared photographs at 1:40,000. ASIS was
acquired from the Minnesota Department of Transportation in the spring of
2004. |

Horizontal Positional Accuracy |
These points were captured
from several different sources, including USGS 1:24000 quadrangles, 1:12000 USGS
DOQs (from 1991), Natural Resource Conservation Service Soil Survey maps, and
the ASIS (Aggregate Source Information System) from the Minnesota Department
of Transportation. |
||
Vertical Positional Accuracy |
Not applicable. |
||
Lineage |
These points were gathered
from a variety of sources, some were digitized within a few meters, others
were located on DOQs (Digital Orthophoto Quadrangles) and DRGs with on screen
digitizing. The gravel pits that are medium (5-15 Acres) to large (15+ Acres)
are located somewhere in the disturbed area, and should be very accurate. |
