- Abstract
- The DLG data files used to create this dataset are derived from the 1:2,000,000-scale maps contain selected base categories of cartographic data in digital form. The data files are derived from the sectional maps of the 1970 National Atlas of the United States of America. The Hydrography category includes data in three separate subcategories: (1) Streams, (2) Water Bodies, and (3) Hypsography (Continental Divide only). This file contains only data pertaining to New York State.
- Purpose
- DLG's depict information about geographic features of political and administrative units. These data were collected as part of the National Mapping Program.

- Data Quality Information
- Attribute Accuracy Report
- Attribute accuracy was originally tested by manual comparison of the source with hard copy plots.
- Logical Consistency Report
- The topological structure of each DLG file is fully validated by software. There are no extraneous intersections; that is, a line does not join or cross another line, or itself, except at a node. No line extends through a node. Polygon (area) adjacency is also validated; that is, area left and right topological attributes of lines are consistent throughout the file. The neatline is free of gaps. Validation of DLG data is performed for each category within a file.
- Completeness Report
- Streams: Data completeness generally reflects the content of the original source graphic. Selective updating of the maps was done prior to digitizing. The Hydrography category includes perennial and intermittent streams and canals. Water Bodies: Data completeness generally reflects the content of the original source graphic. Selective updating of the maps was done prior to digitizing. Water bodies include perennial, intermittent and dry lakes, swamps and glaciers. Hypsography: Data completeness generally reflects the content of the original source graphic. Selective updating of the maps was done prior to digitizing. Hypsography data is liminted to the Continental Divide.
- Horizontal Positional Accuracy Report
- Comparison to a graphic source or image source is used as control to assess digital positional accuracy. Cartographic offsets may be present on graphic, due to scale and legibility constraints. Data has been vertically aligned between categories of data.

- Entity and Attribute Information
- Entity and Attribute Overview
- DLG3 attribute codes are used to describe the physical and cultural characteristics of DLG node, line, and area elements. Attribute codes are used to reduce redundant information, provide enough reference information to support integration with larger data base, and describe the relationships between cartographic elements. Each DLG element has one or more attribute codes composed of a three digit major code and a four-digit minor code.
