- Abstract:
- Shorelines of the state listed in Chapter 173-20 Washington
Administrative Code were selected from a Water Body layer mapped at
1:24,000 scale.
- Purpose:
- Provide a GIS shapefile of the water bodies listed in WAC
173-20. WARNING: WAC 173-20 and this GIS shapefile have planned
obsolesence. Please read WAC 173-20-044 BEFORE using this data!
- Supplemental_Information:
- (1) Washington state is divided into two State Plane Zones,
north and south. For this data set, north zone data coordinates have
been converted to south zone coordinates.
(2) Time period of content was derived from an estimated range of
publication dates from USGS 1:24,000 scale quadrangles encompassing
the state of Washington (from which base data were originally
compiled). Specific publication dates should be referenced from
individual quadrangles.
(3) The dataset is a product of the Pacific Northwest Hydrography
Framework Clearinghouse process. It integrates the best available
hydrographic data from the WA Dept of Natural Resources, U.S. Forest
Service, and U.S. Bureau of Land Management.
(4) The WA Dept of Ecology performed the integration of the data
from the Hydrography Framework partners. The integration work was
conducted between January 2005 and March 2006.

- Attribute_Accuracy:
-
- Attribute_Accuracy_Report:
- Data attributes values are created and updated within the
context of rigorous editing routines. Values are checked for
validity within a group of specific ranges or within specific sets
of codes. Attribute accuracy of data within the initial phase was
tested by manually comparing digital products to the source maps.
- Logical_Consistency_Report:
- Specified spatial processing tolerances are used to snap arc
over-shoots to proximal nodes. Remaining anomalous objects falling
outside of specified tolerances are flagged by the software and manually
corrected for logical consistency.
- Completeness_Report:
- Spatial completeness: Statewide coverage. Data Attribute
Completeness: Complete.
- Positional_Accuracy:
-
- Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:
-
- Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:
- Accuracy of this dataset is based upon the use of USGS
source quadrangles which are compiled to meet National Map
Accuracy Standards. NMAS horizontal accuracy requires that at
least 90 percent of points tested are within 0.02 inches of the
true position (on the map). The digital data are estimated to
contain a horizontal positional error of less than or equal to
0.003 inches standard error in the two component directions
relative to the source quadrangle. Comparison to the graphic
source is used as control to assess digital positional accuracy.
Cartographic offsets may be present on the graphic source, due
to scale and legibility y constraints.
- Vertical_Positional_Accuracy:
-
- Vertical_Positional_Accuracy_Report:
- The vertical positional accuracy is based upon the use of
USGS source quadrangles which are compiled to meet NMAS. NMAS
vertical accuracy requires that at least 90 percent of well
defined points tested be within one half contour interval of the
correct value. Comparison to the graphic source is used as
control to assess digital positional accuracy. The file has
undergone digital revision. Accuracy of the digital data meets
the class 1 positional accuracy specifications in the draft
United States National Cartographic Standards for Spatial
Accuracy.

- Process_Description:
- This Digital Line Graph was digitized from the USGS source
quadrangle, by either the National Mapping Division, one of
their cooperators, or one of their contractors. The digital data
were produced by on of the following methods. -scanning a
stable-based copy of the graphic materials. The scanning process
captured the digital data at a scanning resolution of at least
0.001 inches; the resulting raster data were vectorized and then
attributed on an interactive editing station. - scanning the
paper map. The scanning process captured the digital data at a
scanning resolution of at least 0.001 inches; the resulting
raster data were vectorized and then attributed on an
interactive editing station. -scanning a stable-based copy of
the graphic materials. The resulting raster data were then
manually digitized and attributed on an interactive editing
station. The resolution of the digital data is at least 0.001
inches. -scanning the paper map. The resulting raster data were
then manually digitized and attributed on an interactive editing
station. The resolution of the digital data is at least 0.001
inches. -manually digitizing from a stable-based copy of the
graphic material using a digitizing table to capture the digital
data at a resolution of at least 0.001 inches; attribution was
performed either as the data were digitized, or on an
interactive edit station after the digitizing was completed.
-manually digitizing from the paper map using a digitizing table
to capture the digital data at a resolution of at least 0.001
inches; attribution was performed either as the data were
digitized, or on an interactive edit station after the
digitizing was completed. The determination of the DLG
production method was based on various criteria, including
feature density, feature symbology, and availability of
production systems. Four control points corresponding to the
four corners of the quadrangle were used for registration during
data collection. AN eight parameter projective transformation
was performed on the coordinates used in the data collection and
editing systems to register the digital data to the internal
coordinates used in PROSYS, and a four parameter linear
transformation was performed from the PROSYS internal
coordinates to Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) grid
coordinates. The e DLG data were checked for position by one of
the following processes: -comparing plots of the digital data to
the graphic source. - comparing the digital data to the digital
raster scan. DLG data classification was checked by at least one
of the following processes. - comparing plots of the digital
data to the graphic source. - comparing the digital data to the
digital raster scan.

- Process_Step:

- Process_Description:
- The Pacific Northwest Hydrography Framework water body
coverages were constructed from the polygon features
representing areal hydrographic features, including lakes,
wetlands, glaciers, oceans, estuaries, and streams represented
by double banks. Enhancements made were the editing of polygon
attributes for water body type code and geographic feature name,
and the creation of a unique identifier based on the
latitude/longitude of the water body centroid.
The framework processing procedures were:
1) verifying the DLG water body type codes for each polygon and
converting that value to the WB_CART_FTR_CD attribute.
2) assigning the GNIS feature name to water body polygons in the
WB_GNIS_NM attribute and WB_GNIS_NR attribute.
3) assigning a unique Lat/Long identifier to each water body
polygon (including islands) If the water body was represented in
the 100K Water Body layer, that LLID was used.
4) assigning an appropriate value to the WB_HYDR_FTR_CD
attribute.

- Process_Description:
- The ArcInfo water body coverages were converted into a
single ArcSDE polygon feature class inside a 24K Hydrography
feature dataset.
1) Create a 24K Hydrography feature dataset.
2) Add water body subtypes and domain values to the feature
dataset.
3) Create an empty water_body feature class inside the feature
dataset.
4) Load the vector water body data into the feature class using
the ArcCatalog 9.1 Simple Data Loader. The source data was the
62 water body coverage polygons (one coverage for each WRIA).
