                         OWNERSHIP COVERAGE METADATA

The Forest Service ownership coverage lines were hand digitized 
and/or scanned from 1:24,000 scale Land Status Atlas mylar bases, and
reviewed by Forest Surveyors for accuracy and completeness.  Positional 
accuracy of the lines meets National Map Accuracy standards.

The coverages are registered (vertically integrated) with the streams, 
roads, water, and other coincident coverages extracted from the Southern
Region's standardized GIS database.  The stands coverages were originally 
projected in State Plane coordinate systems, and all have been re-projected 
into the SAA Albers projection.
