dsOriginator MDA Geospatial Services, Inc.
dsPurpose To validate or collect road centerline data in support of the U.S. Census Bureau MAF/TIGER Accuracy Improvement Project (MTAIP). The Census Bureau worked through their prime contractor, The Harris Corporation, to verify that all local street centerline GIS files meet or exceed the spatial accuracy requirement of 7.6 meters. The Harris Corporation contracted with MDA Geospatial Services, Inc. of British Columbia to acquire aerial photography to be used in the evaluation/data development process for selected counties.
