Data Quality
Lineage:No detailed soil or vegetation recording was conducted in the field.
The Singleton-Murray Downs Study Area and the immediate surroundings were divided into three levels of capability. These were then mapped at 1:200,000 scale by direct digitising onto a rectified satellite image in the GIS.
Land unit line work already established over Murray Downs Station was used and altered where appropriate to comply with the capability boundaries. Bib Ref: Grant AR (1989), THE PASTORAL LAND RESOURCES OF MURRAY DOWNS STATION.
Positional Accuracy:POLYGON DATA
Map unit boundaries digitised on screen directly from digital rectified aerial photographs. Level of accuracy depends on the number of control points on individual aerial photographs. Control points include creek lines, cadastre and other topographic features. Depending on the nature of the landscape (the number of control points), positional accuracy may vary. Positional accuracy generally considered high to very high.
Attribute Accuracy:Attribute values, as described in the Data Dictionary below, have been added to each polygon.
Logical Consistency:GIS editing tools were used to rectify all overshoots and undershoots in line work. Polygon topology rules applied are; must not overlap, must not have gaps and each polygon has only one label.
Completeness:Complete
