Data_Quality_Information:
Logical_Consistency_Report:
These data are believed to be logically consistent, though no tests were performed. All arcs were snapped by the nodes to create consistantly tied strings without node dangles. Line geometry is topologically clean.
Completeness_Report: Data set is complete
Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:
The accuracy of the boundaries is dependent upon the accuracy of the source data.
Quantitative_Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Assessment:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Value: +/- 10m
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Explanation:
The cirlcular error on the IKONOS Imagery from which the shoreline was derived.
Quantitative_Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Assessment:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Value: +/- 10m
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Explanation:
Accuracy from the differentially corrected GPS positioning of the side boundaries of the preserves.

Title: Vectorized Shoreline of Guam, Derived from IKONOS, 2002
Edition: First
Type_of_Source_Media: disc
Source_Citation_Abbreviation: guam_final_pline
Source_Contribution:
Land side boundaries of the Marine Preserve were derived from a distant of 10 meters from the shoreline.
Process_Step:
Process_Description:
GPS coordinates were taken at the markers for the boundaries of the marine preserve. The GPS data was tehn differnetially corrected and used as the nodes for the boundaries of the preserve. The Side Boundaries were derived directly by the statutory definintion. The marine boundaries were derived by digitizing the 100 fathom mark from the digital verion of the NOAA chart for Guam. The land boundaries were derived from creating a buffer 10m inland from the shorleine.
