- DOMAIN of allowable values - adherence of values to the DOMAIN - definition of ITEMS - requirement of all UNIQUE values for an item - logic of ITEMS REDEFINED over other ITEMS - length of ITEM name as regards conversion to shape fileBUILD statuses of data sets were checked, as were LABELERRORS and NODEERRORS (where appropriate), and PROJECTION definition. The presence of a BND file was verified. The presence and location of TICS were checked. Polygon and chain-node topology present. There are no dangling arcs. There is one polygon label per polygon, except for universe polygon. Boundary values appropriate for map projection and map units. "Fuzzy" tolerance is suitable for nominal scale. Several unneeded .AAT and .PAT items were dropped, tics were replaced, and a single polygon was removed. COVER-ID values were recalculated to be unique. See process steps for March, 1998. There are no attribute values outside the appropriate domains.
Attribute items are in typical ARC/INFO feature class format. ARC ATTRIBUTES: Arc attributes indicate line type. Attribute items other than the Arc/Info defaults are: STATELINE - Indicates if arc is a part of the state boundary 1 - arc is part of the state boundary 0 - arc is not part of the state boundary COUNTLINE - Indicates if arc is a part of a county boundary 1 - arc is part of a county boundary 0 - arc is not part of a county boundary SECLINE - Indicates if arc is a part of a section line 1 - arc is part of a section line 0 - arc is not part of a section line INDLINE - Indicates if arc is a part of an Indian Treaty boundary 1 - arc is part of a an Indian Treaty boundary 0 - arc is not part of an Indian Treaty boundary TOWNLINE - Indicates if arc is a part of a township or range line 1 - arc is part of a township or range line 0 - arc is not part of a township or range line POLYGON ATTRIBUTES: Polygon attributes indicate meridian, township, range, x-coordinates, and y-coordinates. Polygon items other than the Arc/Info defaults are: MERIDIAN - The meridian of the township (2, 3, or 4) TOWNSHIP - The alphanumeric township identifier (1N-46N, 1S-18S) RANGE - The alphanumeric range identifier (1E-15E, 1W-14W) X-COORD - X Coordinate of the center of the township in Lambert feet Y-COORD - Y Coordinate of the center of the township in Lambert feet ** REDEFINED ITEMS ** TWP - The condensed meridian, township and range identifier TNUM - The numeric township identifier RNUM - The numeric range identifier TOWNNUM - The condensed township and range identifier ANNOTATION ATTRIBUTES: Annotation attributes indicate the following label items: Township identification grid Range identification grid A text label is given for each Principle Meridian A text label is given for each Base Line
