Dataset Identification:

Resource Abstract:
FEMA Framework Basemap datasets comprise six of the seven FGDC themes of geospatial data that are used by most GIS applications (Note: the seventh framework theme, orthographic imagery, is packaged in a separate NFIP Metadata Profile): cadastral, geodetic control, governmental unit, transportation, general structures, hydrography (water areas & lines. These data include an encoding of the geographic extent of the features and a minimal number of attributes needed to identify and describe the features. (Source: Circular A16, p. 13).

AbsoluteExternalPositionalAccuracy
name Of Measure Horizontal Positional Accuracy Report
evaluation Method Description  The NSSDA is used to report the horizontal accuracy of the base map data used by FEMA to produce a FIRM. The NSSDA uses radial accuracy (Accuracy) to report the radius of a circle of uncertainty, such that the true or theoretical location of a point falls within that circle 95 percent of the time. (Guidelines and Specifications Vol 1, p. 70)
AbsoluteExternalPositionalAccuracy
name Of Measure Horizontal Positional Accuracy
measure Description  The minimum horizontal positional accuracy for new FIRM base map data is that of the default base map, the USGS DOQs, which have an NSSDA radial accuracy of 38 feet. Data that meet higher accuracy standards are also acceptable. Accuracy of 38 feet is the same as radial root mean square error (RMSEr) of 22 feet. (Guidelines and Specifications Vol 1, p. 70)

evaluation Method Description  The Basemap datasets represents all the features utilized during the study mapping process to spatially position the DFIRM information and highlights the specific prioritization process laid out in the Guidelines and Specifications Vol 1, p. 69 in their selection for use. The final selection criteria, and rational for inclusion should be outlined here, along with rational for exclusion of use of specific base map datasets if applicable.

ConceptualConsistency
measure Description  Polygons intersecting the neatline are closed along the border. Segments making up the outer and inner boundaries of a polygon tie end-to-end to completely enclose the area. Line segments are a set of sequentially numbered coordinate pairs. No duplicate features exist nor duplicate points in a data string. Intersecting lines are separated into individual line segments at the point of intersection. Point data are represented by two sets of coordinate pairs, each with the same coordinate values.
