DATA_QUALITY_INFORMATION

  Attribute_Accuracy
    Attribute_Accuracy_Report:
      Ak Department of Oil and Gas
      prepared the initial map of the tract boundaries in AutoCad r12.
      Tract numbers were added by converting the autocad file to an
      ArcView shapefile and editing the attribute table- a paper map was printed
      and accuracy checked, with errors corrected.
  Logical_Consistency_Report:
      unknown- prepared by Dept of oil
      and gas in AutoCAD as a *.dxf file, which was converted to a shapefile
      projected into Alaska Albers
  Completeness_Report:
      updated as needed- no updates planned
