Data Quality Information
Logical Consistency Report
All polygons are closed. Note that the ocean areas are therefore cropped.
Completeness Report
unknown
Horizontal Positional Accuracy Report
Positional accuracy varies. Data north of Manhattan (from HREP Shoreline) is estimated to be accurate within 5m. The data of Manhattan and southwards (from NOAA Shoreline) are less accurate, with inaccuracies estimated to be more than 10m in some places.
