An updated digital version of Great Bay's boundary was critical to the PAGIS project. The digital boundary was delineated from management and research areas within the Reserve. It was not based on legal definitions. The PAGIS project provided each National Estuarine Research Reserve (NERR) with a fully integrated geographic information system (GIS), encompassing spatial data and Internet capabilities. One of the essential GIS data layers being compiled for each Reserve was a digital boundary. The Reserve boundary was delineated based on management and research areas and is not meant to be a legal description of the Reserve. SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION: This boundary is not to be taken as a legal definition of the NERR boundary. It was created based on management and research areas of the Reserve.

All attributes created during the editing process were verified by displaying the lines in both the database and the spatial coverage. LOGICAL CONSISTENCY REPORT: These data are believed to be logically consistent, though no tests were performed. Line geometry is topologically clean. COMPLETENESS REPORT: The boundary of the Reserve is dependent on the shoreline and/or edges of rivers and bays as delineated on a USGS 7.5 minute Topographic Map. The edges or borders of the boundary might change as the natural land changes or better maps and aerial photography become available. The boundary was not based on legal parcels or definitions; therefore, the core boundary is a management/research boundary not a legal boundary. HORIZONTAL POSITIONAL ACCURACY REPORT: The data were created by delineating the boundary off a USGS 7.5 minute Topographic Map at 1:24000 scale. Therefore, the horizontal accuracy is assumed to be within National Map Accuracy Standards, with a horizontal accuracy of 45.6 feet at the 95% confidence level. VERTICAL POSITIONAL ACCURACY REPORT: The data were delineated off a USGS 7.5 minute Topographic Map at 1:24000 scale. Therefore, the vertical accuracy is assumed to be within National Map Accuracy Standards, with a vertical accuracy of 11.9 feet at the 95% confidence level. PROCESS DESCRIPTION: The original data from the Center for Marine Conservation was converted from an ESRI ARCVIEW shapefile to an ESRI ARCINFO coverage. The coverage was then projected into Universal Transverse Mercator and displayed on a USGS 7.5 minute topographic map. The printed map with the original boundary was sent to the Great Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve (NERR) for editing. The NERR edited the boundary by drawing on the printed map using their management plan and research areas for reference. The printed map was sent back to the Coastal Services Center and the digital file was edited to reflect the updates. The corrections were made by on-screen digitizing with the USGS topographic map as the backdrop. Each arc of the boundary file was coded to reflect the change made and the source and confidence of that change. The coverage was then projected to the final projection used by the individual Reserve. PROCESS DATE: 19980831 SOURCE INFORMATION - CITATION: Center for Marine Conservation.
