Attribute Accuracy:

Logical Consistency:

Completeness:

Horizontal Positional Accuracy: Location accuracy for features derived from USGS 7.5-minute quadrangles cannot be assumed to exceed National Map Accuracy Standards for 1:24,000 scale maps (+/- 40 feet or 12 meters). Accuracy of updates based on imagery is dependent on the resolution of the imagery used. Imagery used for updates would represent the best imagery available at the time of the update.

Vertical Positional Accuracy: N/A

Lineage: The original data source for the Federal Adjusted Urban Area is the 2010 U.S. Census. The adjusted boundaries have been approved by the FHWA.
