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 and quarries are fairly large, thus the points are located somewhere in the disturbed area, and should be very accurate. |
