Attribute_Accuracy:
Attribute_Accuracy_Report:
The Regional Land Status personnel are responsible for their local data stewardship and maintenance. The overall collection nationwide consists of 100% attribute accuracy based on currentness and completeness.
Completeness_Report: This theme is current to date of publication.
Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:
Accuracy testing must use NSSDA testing guidelines or be reported based on compiled, published test reports appropriate for the data collection method and equipment. The method of determining accuracy should be documented in the process step of the dataset metadata record. If published accuracy results are used, use the statement 'Compiled to meet ___ (meters, feet) horizontal accuracy at 95% confidence interval' in the metadata record, and identify the testing source used. If accuracy is locally tested to NSSDA standards, the statement 'Tested to meet ___ (meters, feet) horizontal accuracy at 95% confidence interval' should be added to the metadata record. Accuracy for legacy data may be reported according to the accuracy standard in place at the time of data collection (typically National Map Accuracy Standards). Document the standard used in the metadata record. (For more information, see: <http://www.fgdc.gov/standards/documents/standards/accuracy/chapter3.pdf>)

Process_Description:
Selected features of the data set that are intersected by a 20 mile buffer of Vermont's state boundary (using the VT BoundaryOther_BNDHASH data set) and exported them to this new feature class. Then, projected this feature class from GCS NAD83 spatial reference to Vermont SPCS spatial reference. Posted this feature class to Vermont's Open GeoData Portal.
