Data sources used in this process:
Attribute accuracy was visually verified via visual spot check comparison of the resultant digital files against the paper originals.
The magnitude of horizontal error associated with digitization of the raster linework is unknown but is thought to be ~60 ft. This distance is essentially the ground width of two pixels within the digitized image.
This dataset includes geospatial data that contain information about the topography and hydrology of the Mount Michelson C-5 and B-5 and portions of the C-4 and C-5 1:63,360 quadrangle maps as illustrated by the U.S. Geological Survey.
Topology is present on appropriate line and polygon data sets.
