Title: Huron National Forest Ownership

Description:

Abstract: Huron National Forest ownership. This layer will be replaced when the Automated Lands Project (ALP) is implemented. ALP will provide lands status information, as required by law.
Purpose: This layer is a representation of current ownership. It was not created with the same level of accuracy as ALP, it is NOT a status atlas.
Supplemental Information: The data for this coverage was derived from the 1:24,000 1989 CFFs (Cartographic Feature Files).

Positional Accuracy:

Horizontal Positional Accuracy:

Horizontal Positional Accuracy Report:
CFFs meet National Map Accuracy Standards which require that 90 percent of all well-defined features be shown on the map within .02 inches of their true location. At the PBS scale of 1:24,000 this represents 40 feet on the ground. Features added on-screen by hand do not meet these accuracy standards.
