Description:
Abstract: This is an index to Large scale hydrography surface water areas tiled by HUC-8
sub-basin boundaries. Surface water areas extracted from New York State Large Scale
Hydrography. Connectors added as needed to create closed areas.
Purpose: Continuous hydrography areas for mapping and modeling. Base data for creation of high
resolution National Hydrography Dataset (NHD).

Attribute_Accuracy:
Attribute_Accuracy_Report:
Logical_Consistency_Report: Topological rules include: Lines must begin and end at nodes, all nodes anchor the ends
of lines, lines intersect only at nodes, lines do not overshoot or undershoot other lines
where they are supposed to meet, there are no duplicate lines. Lines bound areas and lines
identify the areas to the left and right of the lines, gaps and overlaps among areas do not
exist, all areas close.
Completeness_Report: The completeness of the data reflects the published map. Features found on the ground
may have been eliminated or generalized on the source graphic because of scale and legibility
constraints. Lake/ponds 100 feet or greater in the shortest axis were collected. Note,
however, that these general rules were applied unevenly among maps during
compilation.
Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report: Statements of horizontal positional accuracy are based on accuracy statements made
for U.S. Geological Survey topographic quadrangle maps. These maps were compiled to meet
National Map Accuracy Standards. For horizontal accuracy, this standard is met if at least
90 percent of points tested are within 0.02 inch (at map scale) of the true position.
Additional offsets to positions may have been introduced where feature density is high to
improve the legibility of map symbols.In addition, the digitizing of maps is estimated to
contain a horizontal positional error of less than or equal to 0.003 inch standard error
(at map scale) in the two component directions relative to the source maps. Visual
comparison between the map graphic (including digital scans of the graphic) and plots or
digital displays of points, lines, and areas, is used as control to assess the positional
accuracy of digital data.
Vertical_Positional_Accuracy:
Vertical_Positional_Accuracy_Report: Statements of vertical positional accuracy for elevation of water surfaces are
based on accuracy statements made for U.S. Geological Survey topographic quadrangle maps.
These maps were compiled to meet National Map Accuracy Standards. For vertical accuracy,
this standard is met if at least 90 percent of well-defined points tested are within
one-half contour interval of the correct value. Elevations of water surface printed on the
published map meet this standard; the contour intervals of the maps vary. These elevations
were transcribed into the digital data; the accuracy of this transcription was checked by
visual comparison between the data and the map.
