This dataset includes the traditional set of hypsography information shown on USGS 1:24,000-scale topographic maps. The data was derived from USGS Digital Line Graphs.
Purpose:
These data are intended for geographic display and analysis at a regional level. The data should be displayed and analyzed at scales appropriate for 1:24,000-scale data.

Attribute_Accuracy:
Attribute_Accuracy_Report:
Attribute accuracy is tested by manual comparison of the source with hard copy plots and/or symbolized display of the digital line graph on an interactive computer graphic system. Through inspection and queries, attempts were made to ensure completeness and consistency of attribute values.
Logical_Consistency_Report:
Topological requirements include the following: lines must begin and end at nodes, lines must connect to each other at nodes, lines do not extend through nodes, left and right areas are defined for each line element and are consistent throughout the file, and lines representing the limits of the file (neatline) are free of gaps.
Completeness_Report:
The completeness of the data is unknown but should be consistent with the level of information normally shown on U.S. Geological Survey 1:24,000-scale topographic maps.
