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:
Varied -mainly derived from topographic and digitised data
Processing Steps:
Not Documented
Positional AccuracyPrecision: Vertcal accuracy is good - less than 1 cm; Horizontal is within 1-10m
Determination: Generally derived from precise topographic surveying
Attribute AccuracyAttributes are verified and should be accurate. Overall reliability of the source material is indictaed in RELIABILITY field, where 'HIGH' is good and 'LOW' is poor quality source information.
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 will be followed .
