USDA Forest Service, Carson National Forest 20010601 Primary vector digital data Taos, New Mexico Carson National Forest StudyArea1950rd\\GRETCHEN\I$\NFS2004\NFS\StudyArea1950rd.shp This coverage is a result of filtering for the 1950 rd line within the road coverage for the Carson National forest. This coverage was used to create the 1950rdStudyAreaclp shapefile, which clips the road to within the Study Area. The rest of the metadata is from the original file. This coverage depicts the roads on the Carson National Forest and is part of the USFS Southwestern Region Core Data Project. This project is designed to generate and maintain 15 vertically integrated resource data layers which are standardized across the Southwestern Region. These 15 layers are derived from a Master Arc coverage which maintains vertical integration. The purpose of this coverage is to depict and label the roads on this National Forest. The coverage will be used to provide road information for any necessary analysis. en 199909 200106 Most current data available within the stated time period.

Taos New Mexico 87571 USA 505-758-6300 0800 - 1630 M-F, Mountain Time Microsoft Windows 2000 Version 5.1 (Build 2600) Service Pack 1; ESRI ArcCatalog 8.2.0.700 Shapefile Accuracy and completeness was checked by manually comparing hardcopy plots, on-screen review, and reporting method with the source materials. RD_RTE_NO was populated based on information provided by the Forest Service, either in manual or digital form. An automated quality assurance/control application, QCView, was used to verify a consistent data structure and valid attribution for fields based on the "Specifications for TVA Data Automation Contract". Line(arc) and route topology present. Data set is complete. National Map Accuracy Standards for 7.5 minute quadrangles (1:24000). Approximately 40 feet. USDA, Forest Service, Geospatial Service and Technology Center (GSTC) Unknown Vintage 11 map Salt Lake City, Utah USDA, Forest Service, Geospatial Service and Technology Center (GSTC) Cartographic Feature Files (CFFs) are digital files containing a vector representation of the point and line features shown on a Forest Service Primary Base Series (PBS) map. CFF data are collected by digitizing PBS maps and revised using correction guide information provided by field units. GSTC began producing Vintage 11 CFFs in 1996. 24000 electronic 1996 2000 Most current data available during the stated time period. Unknown Roads extracted from the CFFs. General: Vintage 11 CFF digital data was used to create this coverage. Source and method was populated for all arcs. The RD_RTE_NO was supplied by the Forest and populated on the respective arcs. The data set was checked for dangle errors. Errors were corrected and topology built for arc. A route subclass was created based on the item RD_RTE_NO. Beginning and ending points were applied to the route and directionality set. Technical: Approximately 95% of the time, the CFFs will be the basis for the road data. In some instances, the Forests may have additional information (spatial and attribute) to supplement this information. The Forest may provide additional spatial data (from manuscripted, GPS or some other digital source). The RO will allow for this additional information provided the Forest has validated the data (usually with verification from an orthogonalized photograph) and can provide documentation to the validity (includes SOURCE_CODE and METHOD). The Forest may also provide a digital coverage from another vintage of CFF in which they have previously updated. TVA will then preserve whatever information is to be retained from this data set (via the "Data Assessment") and transfer the attribute information ("matchcover" and "conflate") to the V11 data. If no information is to be provided from the Forest, TVA extracts the roads from the respective master quad coverage (using the standard list of applicable CFF codes from the Data Specifications) and plots the road data, by quad, color- coded by CFFC and sends to the Forest for review and edit. The Forest will then verify the CFFC is correct, annotate on the plots where it is to be changed, and assign a road number for all roads within the Forest boundary and show direction (and start/stop points) for the roads. These plots are then returned to TVA and TVA makes the edits (in an extracted coverage) based on the annotation from the Forest Service. These edits include editing or adding a CFFC (in attribute CFF1-CFF10), populates the road arcs with the Forest-provided road number (in attribute "RD_RTE_NO). Once all edits are complete, the original data is deleted from the master quad coverage and the new, edited data is put back into the master quad coverage. If information is provided by the Forest, TVA uses the Forest-provided data (breaks it down by quadrangle using the quad coverage as a clip cover) and compares that coverage, quad by quad, with the extracted V11 roads coverage. Editing, conflation, etc. is then done and TVA provides the color-coded by CFFC quadrangle plots for the Forest for review and editing. These plots are then returned to TVA and TVA makes the edits based on the annotation from the Forest Service. Once all edits are complete, the original data is deleted from the master quad coverage and the new, edited data is put back into the master quad coverage. At this point the road data is complete. When the output coverage is produced in the final processing phase, a "route" will be created ("Arcroute" based on item "RD_RTE_NO") for all numbered roads and directionality applied to those routes. Unit wide coverages were appended to create forestwide coverages by the Regional Office staff. 20010601 Tennessee Valley Authority Geographic Information and Engineering/USDA Project Team Leader mailing and physical address
