Description:
Abstract:

The Cartographic Feature File (CFF) Vintage 11 data

is an electronic version of the U.S. Forest Service primary

base series (PBS) maps which are developed from the U.S.

Geological Survey (USGS) 7.5 minute topographic map series

with enhancements and revisions to satisfy Forest Service

needs and are constructed to meet National Map Accuracy

Standards (NMAS). This data includes all the features

except the contour lines. The West Virginia GIS Tech Center has converted the files into ArcInfo interchange format (.e00) and zipped them for dowload.

Purpose:

The CFF Vintage 11 data were intended for updating the

primary base series and for generating secondary base

series maps. They provide basic planimetric map features

from a single standard source to which resource data can be

registered and to provide CFF data to USGS for inclusion in

the National Digital Cartographic Database.

Data_Quality_Information:
Attribute_Accuracy:
Attribute_Accuracy_Report:

All attributes entered during the creation process were

verified by displaying the lines in both the database and

spatial coverage.

Logical_Consistency_Report:

These data are believed to be logically consistent, though

no tests were performed. Line geometry is topologically clean.

Completeness_Report:

CFF specifications are provided in Forest Service

Engineering manual (EM) 7140-21. You can also visit the

GSTC web site at www.fs.fed.us/gsc.

Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:

The horizontal positional accuracy of the CFF reflects the

nature of the source PBS map. PBS maps are compiled to meet

National Map Accuracy Standards (NMAS). For the horizontal

component, the NMAS states that 90 percent of well-defined

points on a map fall within a specified distance of the

actual position on the ground -- 1/50th of an inch at map

scale for 1:24000- and 1:63360-scale. CFFs are estimated to

contain a horizontal positional accuracy of less than or

equal to 0.005 inches in one direction relative to the

source graphic. The source graphic is used to assess

digital positional accuracy.

Source stable-based mylar from which Vintage 11 CFFs were generated.

Process_Step:
Process_Description:

CFFs are collected by digitizing map features shown on

Primary Base Series (PBS) maps. Line and Point features are

described by X-Y coordinate pairs and attribued using a

Feature Code scheme. CFFs are formatted according to the

U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) quadrangle convention.
