RASTER DIGITAL DATA OR DIGITAL ORTHORECTIFIED IMAGE OR NAIP DIGITAL ORTHO PHOTO IMAGE
other Citation Details
An orthorectified image is a layer in every product and is provided by the USDA-FSA-APFO from the National Agriculture Image
Program (NAIP). This offers the USGS a nationally consistent image product, normally with a one meter resolution in natural
color.

other Citation Details
The Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) is the Federal and national standard for geographic nomenclature. The U.S.
Geological Survey developed the GNIS in support of the U.S. Board on Geographic Names as the official repository of domestic
geographic names data, the official vehicle for geographic names use by all departments of the Federal Government, and the
source for applying geographic names to Federal electronic and printed products.

name Of Measure Horizontal Positional Accuracy Report
evaluation Method Description
This US map product is compiled to meet National Map Accuracy Standards (NMAS). NMAS horizontal accuracy requires that at
least 90 percent of well-defined points tested are within 0.02 inch of the true position. In this product, the projection
line, and grids are believed to meet NMAS. Positional accuracy of the other data layers is less controllable because of diversity
of data sources, and may not meet NMAS.
AbsoluteExternalPositionalAccuracy
name Of Measure Vertical Positional Accuracy Report
evaluation Method Description
The accuracy of the National Elevation Dataset (NED) is inherited from the source digital elevation models (DEMs). The overall
absolute vertical accuracy expressed as the root mean square error (RMSE) is 2.44 meters. The measured vertical RMSE was converted
to equivalent NMAS and NSSDA expressions. The accuracy is expressed in terms of the National Map Accuracy Standards (NMAS),
which use a 90 percent confidence interval, and in terms of the National Standard for Spatial Data Accuracy (NSSDA), which
uses a 95 percent confidence interval.
Completeness Commission
evaluation Method Description
Each layer is extracted from the USGS national geospatial databases.
Completeness Omission
