Title: Planned Metrorail Stations, Loudoun County, VA

Geospatial_Data_Presentation_Form: vector digital data

Description:

Abstract:

**DISCLAIMER**** These station data are for illustrative purposes only and were were extracted from the latest proposed data provided by MWAA to the Loudoun County Office of Mapping and Geographic Information on April 25, 2012. These data, show the projected station locations that, when completed, will become part of the Silver Line of the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA) Metrorail system. Metro station names were updated in 2015 from documentation produced by Loudoun County, Fairfax County and WMATA.

Purpose:

This layer identifies the planned location of the Metrorail stations in or near Loudoun County, VA as part of Phase 2 of the Dulles Corridor Metrorail Project being constructed by the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA), Fairfax County, Loudoun County, Town of Herndon and the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority (MWAA).

Data_Quality_Information:

Attribute_Accuracy:

Attribute_Accuracy_Report:

Retention of attribute accuracy throughout the personal geodatabase or shapefile to ArcSDE geodatabase feature class conversion process was ensured by a manual or automatic QA/QC programmatic check. To meet satisfactory QA/QC requirements the input coverage and output feature class must have, on a record by record basis, identical attribution when comparing all concatenated fields to all the user-defined attribution.

Logical_Consistency_Report: Topologically clean

Positional_Accuracy:

Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:

Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:

Retention of coordinate accuracy throughout the personal geodatabase or shapefile to ArcSDE geodatabase feature class conversion process was ensured by a manual or automatic QA/QC programmatic check. To meet satisfactory QA/QC requirements the input coverage and output feature class must have the same record total, and on a record by record basis, area, perimeter, and length differential of less than +/- 0.5%.
