Abstract:
WQSTREAM depicts single line streams of Maine from USGS 1:24,000 scale quadrangles. Some New Hampshire and New Brunswick features are also included. Data for this coverage were digitized from USGS 1:24,000 scale quadrangle maps by various contractors. Arcs are coded for perennial and intermittent stream types.
MEDEP staff did extensive corrections and adjustments throughout the data including edgematching of streams, classification per MRSA 38 4-A, and assigning names to stream reaches. Data are current to HP 1401 LD 1891 An Act to Reclassify Certain Downeast Waters, effective July 30, 2004.
Purpose:
WQSTREAM is a layer of single line streams with water quality classification. Users must assume responsibility in determining the useability of this data for their purpose. Data at this scale is suitable for detailed studies and local planning.

Data Quality Information
Section Index
Attribute Accuracy:
Attribute Accuracy Report:
Attribute accuracy is tested by manual comparison of the source with hard copy printouts and/or symbolized display of digital files. The reliability of the TYPE code is highly variable. Use it with caution.
Logical Consistency Report: Spatial topology meets Maine GIS Data Standards. Spatial topology is clean and free of errors. The coverage has been BUILT to LINE and has ARC topology.
Completeness Report: Data set is complete.
Positional Accuracy:
Horizontal Positional Accuracy:
Horizontal Positional Accuracy Report:
Approximate horizontal accuracy is 12 meters, assuming source data meets National Map Accuracy Standards. The data retains the edgematching discrepancies existing in the source. Horizontal positional accuracy for the digital data is tested by visual comparison to the source with hard copy plots.
Quantitative Horizontal Positional Accuracy Assessment:
Horizontal Positional Accuracy Value: 12
Horizontal Positional Accuracy Explanation:
Digitizer tolerance specified equivalent to 0.005 digitizer units, RMS error not to exceed 0.005. For each digital map created, a mylar proof plot of that map was made to verify that the original data have been digitized within the accuracy requirements of "Data Standards for Maine Geographic Information Systems, 1990". A proof plot was plotted on mylar at the same scale as the manuscript. All lines on the proof were a linewidth of 0.01 inch or less. By visual inspection of the proof plot against the original 1:24,000 scale data, ninety percent of the cartographic features on a map were found to be digitized within 0.01 inches measured from the centerline or center point of the feature. One hundred percent of all cartographic features were found to be digitized within 0.02 inches.

Process Description:
Each MaineGIS 1:24000 base layer represents the automation of a thematic layer from a U.S.Geological Survey (USGS) 7.5 minute series 1:24000 scale quadrangle map. Since the early 1990s, Maine Department of Conservation (MEDOC) has led a multi-agency effort to fund the automation of data to serve a diverse suite of state agency applications in areas that include natural resource management, environmental protection, transportation, and human services. Initially nine base layers were identified for conversion to digital files: coast, contours, otrans, ponds, rivers, roads, streams, towns and wetlands. Automation and quality control, of over 700 U.S.G.S. quadrangles that cover the State of Maine, were coordinated by the Maine Office of Geographic Information Systems (MEGIS). Automation was verified using quality control parameters and procedures outlined in MaineGIS "Data Standards for Maine Geographic Information Systems", March 1990. For MaineGIS base layers, a number of contracted sources were used to scan and vectorize the data from mylar separates or the best available media. Digital files were delivered by contractors in Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) projection, Zone 19 referenced to the North American Datum of 1927 (NAD27) and in ARC/INFO format, the software standard for Maine's statewide GIS. Quads were digitized at a Root Mean Square (RMS) error not to exceed 0.005 and at a fuzzy tolerance equivalent to 0.002 digitizer inches at the scale of the manuscript map. Map features were digitized within the equivalent of 0.01 in. of the original manuscript. Mylar proof plots of the digitized coverages, with USGS tick marks, neatline and legend, were generated at a pen width of 0.01, and at the original scale, and provided by contractors on delivery of each digitized quad. At MEGIS, proof plots were overlaid on original base maps to check registration, linework quality, and completeness. Features were verified by the following standard of accuracy: 90% of the

Process Description:
The Maine Office of GIS completed the conversion of all final data layers from NAD27 to NAD83 in July 1999. All the data layers were converted using the ArcInfo (version 7.2.1) NADCON conversion by using the "project" command in ArcInfo. All data was copied to double-precision, projected to NAD83, and then copied back to single precision. It was decided to keep the NAD27 quad structure instead of generating new quad boundaries from NAD83 coordinates - all indexes (quads) were projected to NAD83 by using the same process previously described. All the Maine Office of GIS data libraries in ArcInfo Librarian were re-created using the NAD83 indexes and data.

Entity and Attribute Detail Citation:
The ArcView shapefile and ArcGIS geodatabase formats, commonly used for Maine GIS data, carry default identifiers and attributes that are software generated and/or important for internal recordkeeping. These are listed here to avoid repetition for every layer, and may not be repeated in the attribute descriptions and definitions of each layer. Common software generated identifiers and attributes in Maine GIS data include: FID (feature identifier), Shape (feature geometry), OBJECTID and SHAPE_lengt. In addition, most GIS formats will carry fields for PERIMETER, AREA and/or LENGTH according to feature geometry. These fields are typically available by default, with the units based on coordinate system or projection units of GIS data. Most GIS software packages also provide a means to calculate these values. It is important to test any columns containing PERIMETER, AREA or LENGTH values before using them for analysis purposes. These important values can be carried from format to format and become out-dated. Verify that the values are correct. Also, in your GIS software, please view the properties of data layers for the map units used to calculate these fields, and for the units set for display purposes.

Format Specification: ArcView Shapefile Format
Format Information Content:
MEGIS has made all vector layers, in the Maine GIS Internet Data Catalog, available in ESRI's ArcView shapefile format. A shapefile is a simple non-topological format that stores the geometry and attribute information for a set of geographic features as a set of vector (point, line, polygon) coordinates. Shapefiles draw quickly and directly in ArcView, ArcGIS, ArcExplorer. Shapefiles are a compatible data type for many other types of GIS software. Three files are fundamental to each shapefile: .shp stores the feature geometry (shape and location information); .shx stores the index of the feature geometry; .dbf a dBASE (TM) file stores the attribute information for the features. Other index files may be created to help speed analysis and query: these file formats are .sbn .sbx .ain .aix .fbn and .fbx. In addition you may find projection .prj, and metadata .xml, files associated with shapefiles.
