Data Quality

LineageData Set Source:
Flood data dates back to mid 1800s and historically has been predominantly located in DNRE Floodplain Management Unit. Some data is located in Water Authorities.
Collection Method:
Digitised during capture of data from existing flood maps.
Processing Steps:
Not Documented
Positional AccuracyPrecision: Less than 1cm; typically 10m to 100m
Determination: Deductive estimates and calibration of registration points against the cadastral layer. Some surveyed data is very precise.
Attribute Accuracy95% deductive estimate.
Logical ConsistencyTesting based on QA procedures is to be part of the data collection process and will be included in mapping reports for each major data capture effort.
CompletenessFloodplain Management Unit mapping conventions on definitions of flood mapping will be followed
