- Abstract:
- Water Resource Inventory Areas (WRIA) for Washington State at
1:24,000 scale. WRIAs were formalized under WAC 173-500-040 and
authorized under the Water Resources Act of 1971, RCW 90.54. Ecology
was given the responsibility for the development and management of
these administrative and planning boundaries. These boundaries
represent the administrative under pinning of this agency's business
activities. The original WRIA boundary agreements and judgments were
reached jointly by Washington's natural resource agencies (Ecology,
Natural Resources, Fish and Wildlife) in 1970.
- Purpose:
- To create a WRIA coverage at a scale of 1:24,000 through the
updating of two "like" data sets from different sources.
Additionally, to address discrepancies found between the two
coverages and determine a "best fit" line through several stages of
visual analysis. The development process identified several major
objectives as reasoning to update the digital data coverage: To
improve the spatial resolution of the data set, To align the WRIA
boundaries with 1:24,000 scale hydrology and topography data, To
insure of the alignment of the WRIA boundaries to existing county
and state boundaries where appropriate, and To have one reconciled
set of administrative watershed boundaries (i.e. WADNR's boundaries
to nest within the WRIA boundaries)

- Data_Quality_Information:
-
- Logical_Consistency_Report:
- Polygon and chain-node topology present. All errors incurred during
editing procedures were corrected with ArcEdit under ARC/INFO version
7.2.1 using a fuzzy tolerance of 196.8, an edit tolerance of 100.0, and
a snap tolerance of 100.0. All arc overshoots, undershoots, duplicate
arcs, and arc intersections were corrected. This resulted in a
topologically clean coverage with all arcs intersecting and snapped at
nodes and each WRIA unit comprising a single polygon.

- Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:
- Accuracy of WRIA boundary lines are a direct reflection of
their input scale, 1:24,000. The WRIA data set was derived from
a base layer of WAU units courtesy of DNR. The WAU boundaries
were input at a scale of 1:24,000 and represent accuracy
standards for that scale. Additionally WRIA boundaries were
evaluated in areas of discrepancy. In these identified areas,
topographical, hydrological, and administrative boundary
information was utilized to make an informed decision about the
correct position of the boundary. All analysis decisions were
made with background images of USGS DRG 1:24,000 scale quad
images to provide a consistent and uniform framework to aid in
any adjustment or editing procedures.

- Process_Description:
- 1. Copied WAU coverage to project directory and dissolved
out WRIA polygons by WRIA_NR. 2. Overlaid WRIA100K and dissolved
WAU coverage to create discrepancy polygons. 3. Created point
discrepancy coverage. 4. Applied selection criteria (polys > 35
acres, points > 750 feet) to discrepancy coverages. 5.
Intersected 24K quadrangle and section-township-range coverage
with polygon and point discrepancy coverages. 6. Attached
attributes of intersected coverages and performed ranking
procedure to prioritize the results. 7. Mapped each polygon
discrepancy by quadrangle and grouped each map by its associated
WRIA basin. 8. All WRIA maps were assembled into books
representing each WRIA and its discrepancies. 9. Microsoft
Access database developed to help manage and report project data
(editing, analysis decisions, comments). 10. Visual analysis of
each discrepancy performed using the map books (stage 1). 11.
Additional analysis performed using USGS DRGs at 1:24,000 scale
as well as, in house hydrology and administrative boundary data
sets (stage 2). 12. Project edits carried out based on the two
stages of analysis.
The project was revisited in March of 2000 using two additional
methods of analysis. First, the WRIA24K boundaries were overlaid
with statewide 24K scale hydrology coverage to check for stream
crossings. A 10 foot buffer was used on either side of the WRIA
boundary to limit the size of the output data set. Stream
crossings were then evaluated for relevance. Additionally, a
general overview of the WRIA boundaries as done by examining
each WRIA again the 24K scale USGS DRGs. This was done as an
additional check for unnecessary stream crossings and drainage
errors.

- Abstract:
- Water Resource Inventory Areas (WRIA) for Washington State at
1:24,000 scale. WRIAs were formalized under WAC 173-500-040 and
authorized under the Water Resources Act of 1971, RCW 90.54. Ecology
was given the responsibility for the development and management of
these administrative and planning boundaries. These boundaries
represent the administrative under pinning of this agency's business
activities. The original WRIA boundary agreements and judgments were
reached jointly by Washington's natural resource agencies (Ecology,
Natural Resources, Fish and Wildlife) in 1970.
- Purpose:
- To create a WRIA coverage at a scale of 1:24,000 through the
updating of two "like" data sets from different sources.
Additionally, to address discrepancies found between the two
coverages and determine a "best fit" line through several stages of
visual analysis. The development process identified several major
objectives as reasoning to update the digital data coverage: To
improve the spatial resolution of the data set, To align the WRIA
boundaries with 1:24,000 scale hydrology and topography data, To
insure of the alignment of the WRIA boundaries to existing county
and state boundaries where appropriate, and To have one reconciled
set of administrative watershed boundaries (i.e. WADNR's boundaries
to nest within the WRIA boundaries)

- Logical_Consistency_Report:
- Polygon and chain-node topology present. All errors incurred during
editing procedures were corrected with ArcEdit under ARC/INFO version
7.2.1 using a fuzzy tolerance of 196.8, an edit tolerance of 100.0, and
a snap tolerance of 100.0. All arc overshoots, undershoots, duplicate
arcs, and arc intersections were corrected. This resulted in a
topologically clean coverage with all arcs intersecting and snapped at
nodes and each WRIA unit comprising a single polygon.

- Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:
- Accuracy of WRIA boundary lines are a direct reflection of
their input scale, 1:24,000. The WRIA data set was derived from
a base layer of WAU units courtesy of DNR. The WAU boundaries
were input at a scale of 1:24,000 and represent accuracy
standards for that scale. Additionally WRIA boundaries were
evaluated in areas of discrepancy. In these identified areas,
topographical, hydrological, and administrative boundary
information was utilized to make an informed decision about the
correct position of the boundary. All analysis decisions were
made with background images of USGS DRG 1:24,000 scale quad
images to provide a consistent and uniform framework to aid in
any adjustment or editing procedures.

- Process_Description:
- 1. Copied WAU coverage to project directory and dissolved
out WRIA polygons by WRIA_NR. 2. Overlaid WRIA100K and dissolved
WAU coverage to create discrepancy polygons. 3. Created point
discrepancy coverage. 4. Applied selection criteria (polys > 35
acres, points > 750 feet) to discrepancy coverages. 5.
Intersected 24K quadrangle and section-township-range coverage
with polygon and point discrepancy coverages. 6. Attached
attributes of intersected coverages and performed ranking
procedure to prioritize the results. 7. Mapped each polygon
discrepancy by quadrangle and grouped each map by its associated
WRIA basin. 8. All WRIA maps were assembled into books
representing each WRIA and its discrepancies. 9. Microsoft
Access database developed to help manage and report project data
(editing, analysis decisions, comments). 10. Visual analysis of
each discrepancy performed using the map books (stage 1). 11.
Additional analysis performed using USGS DRGs at 1:24,000 scale
as well as, in house hydrology and administrative boundary data
sets (stage 2). 12. Project edits carried out based on the two
stages of analysis.
The project was revisited in March of 2000 using two additional
methods of analysis. First, the WRIA24K boundaries were overlaid
with statewide 24K scale hydrology coverage to check for stream
crossings. A 10 foot buffer was used on either side of the WRIA
boundary to limit the size of the output data set. Stream
crossings were then evaluated for relevance. Additionally, a
general overview of the WRIA boundaries as done by examining
each WRIA again the 24K scale USGS DRGs. This was done as an
additional check for unnecessary stream crossings and drainage
errors.
