Data_Quality_Information:

Attribute_Accuracy:

Attribute_Accuracy_Report:

Attributes are modelled after the VGIS building standard, but the entire attribute database (i.e. the feature attribute table or .PAT) is not completely populated for lack of source data.
Building Names will eventually added to the attributes of this datalayer.

Logical_Consistency_Report:

This datalayer has been created using centroids of 1979 orthophoto-based building footprint data acquired from the City of Burlington, and 1996/97 EmergencyE911_ESITE datalayers acquired from MicroDATA, Inc. for all other cities and towns.

Completeness_Report:

Data was developed using campus maps obtained from each of the institutions. Due to the difficulty of verifying each of the particular buildings, some campuses may have a few missing buildings or a number of extraneous buildings included within the dataset. Colleges not included within this dataset are 'Woodbury College' (Montpelier), 'Landmark College' (Putney), 'New England Culinary Institute' (Montpelier), 'College of St. Joesph' (Rutland), and the 'Community College of Vermont' Campuses. The following institutions comprise FacilitiesSchools_VTCOLLEGE; (1) Bennington College, (2) Burlington College, (3) Castleton State College, (4) Champlain College, (5) Goddard College, (6) Green Mountain College, (7) Johnson State College, (8) Lyndon State College, (9) Marlboro College, (10) Middlebury College (11) Norwich University, (12) Saint Michael's College, (13) Southern Vermont College, (14) Trinity College of Vermont, (15) University of Vermont, (16) Vermont Law School, (17) Vermont Technical College

Process_Step:

Process_Description:

As a Quality Control measure, GPSed driveway points were eliminated from the datalayer. This was done by selecting points with the E-911/Microdata attribute 'ADDRCALC' value of '1', and deleting them.
