- Abstract:
-
This data set contains point and line features of topographic
information for 18 sections in the Oconomowoc River sub-watershed.
The topographic features consist of geodetic and geographic
reference elements, hydrographic elements, planimetric elements,
and hypsometric elements. An additional set of features called
map sheet elements are included to allow preparation of
hard-copy cartographic products. The data set covers sections 29-33
in T10N R19E and sections 3-10, 17-20, and 30 in T9N R19E. The digital
map files were prepared at one-inch-equals-200-feet scale. The
digital map files are in MicroStation DGN format and ArcInfo
Coverage format.
- Purpose:
-
This data set was collected to provide topographic information for
use in planning and other programs in Washington County and for
regional planning activities in Southeastern Wisconsin. This
project was specifically undertaken to provide the topographic
information required to complete a detailed floodplain study of
the Oconomowoc River sub-watershed within Washington County.

There are no legal prerequisites for accessing this data set.
Potential users should contact the Washington County Planning
and Parks Department - GIS Division.
- Use_Constraints:
-
This data set was prepared from large-scale aerial photography,
current as of 2003. The topographic maps may not reflect current
conditions. Site investigation may be necessary to determine
current ground conditions and location of topographic or
planimetric features.
This data is for informational use only and is not intended to be
substitute for a land or engineering survey.

-
- Logical_Consistency_Report:
-
The features in this data set were collected from aerial
photography utilizing stereo-photogrammetric methods. The digital
map files in the data set were reviewed to ensure all features
are correctly represented and properly symbolized. The files were
also inspected to ensure all features are complete and
correctly organized in the files.
- Completeness_Report:
-
This data set was compiled by a photogrammetric engineering firm
under subcontract to the Southeastern Wisconsin Regional Planning
Commission. To the best knowledge of Washington County and the
Southeastern Wisconsin Regional Planning Commission, this data set
includes all of the intended features acquired from the aerial
photography.

-
- Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:
-
- Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:
-
Digital topographic mapping was prepared to meet National Map
Accuracy Standards for one-inch-equals-200-feet scale mapping.
Therefore, ninety percent or more of all well-defined planimetric
features in the mapping for these areas are within 6.6 feet of
their true position.
- Vertical_Positional_Accuracy:
-
- Vertical_Positional_Accuracy_Report:
-
The digital topographic mapping in this data set contains contour
features captured at two-feet intervals. Therefore, ninety percent
or more of all elevational features in the digital topographic map
files are within 1.0 feet of their true vertical position.

This data set consists of a set of digital map files. The features
included in the files are generally organized as geodetic and
geographic reference elements, hydrographic elements, planimetric
elements, hypsometric elements, and map sheet elements. Each
one-inch-equals-200-feet-scale file covers one U. S. Public Land
Survey section. The vector features contained in the files include
points and lines. The digital map files are in MicroStation DGN
format. The files are three-dimensional. All files consist of
graphic map features only and do not contain attributes at this
time. The data is presented in two file series. The graphic
primitive series (.GRP file extension) includes no cartographic
formatting. The symbolized series (.SYM file extension) includes
cartographic formatting more appropriate for hard-copy map production.
Both the .GRP and .SYM files are Microstation design files. Some
software may require the extension be changed to .dgn for the files
to be interpreted correctly. The individual tiles for each U. S.
Public Land Survey System Township were combined and converted to
ArcInfo Coverage formatted files.
This data also includes a set of digital terrain model files. The
features include mass points and break lines. Each tile covers one
U. S. Public Land Survey Section and were used to create the
hypsometric features contained in the files described above. The
digital map files are in MicroStation DGN format. The files are
three-dimensional. All files consist of graphic map features only
and do not contain attributes at this time.
