Abstract:
The index coverage contains approximately 690 polygons which coincide with Loudoun County's GIS library tile system. Digital Data orders and associated maps are available to the extent of any individual tile as well as county wide. Each tile is designated with a unique ID number that is used in GIS data orders to identify the area of interest. |
Metadata elements shown with blue text are defined in the Federal Geographic Data Committee's (FGDC) Content Standard for Digital Geospatial Metadata (CSDGM). Elements shown with green text are defined in the ESRI Profile of the CSDGM. Elements shown with a green asterisk (*) will be automatically updated by ArcCatalog. ArcCatalog adds hints indicating which FGDC elements are mandatory; these are shown with gray text.
The index coverage contains approximately 690 polygons which coincide with Loudoun County's GIS library tile system. Digital Data orders and associated maps are available to the extent of any individual tile as well as county wide. Each tile is designated with a unique ID number that is used in GIS data orders to identify the area of interest.
This data set is used primarily for locator reference and establishes the first 3 digits in the MCPI number for parcels. This information can also be known as Map, Sheet, or Tile number in other data sets.
Data are stored in the corporate ArcSDE Geodatabase as a polygon feature class. The coordinate system is Virginia State Plane (North), Zone 4501, datum NAD83 HARN (vertical datum, if applicable, NAVD88), US Survey foot units.

Retention of attribute accuracy throughout the coverage to geodatabase feature class coversion process was ensured by a 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.
Topologically clean
Features may have been eliminated or generalized due to scale and intended use. To assist Loudoun County, Virginia in the maintenance of the data, please provide any information concerning discovered errors, omissions, or other discrepancies found in the data.
Retention of coordinate accuracy throughout the coverage to geodatabase feature class conversion process was ensured by a 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%.
6000 by 4000 feet tile boundaries created for the entire extent of Loudoun County at predetermined even coordinates.
This data set was part of a batch process that converted legacy data from ArcInfo coverage in Librarian to a single-tiled ArcInfo coverage in preparation for a final coversion to ArcSDE Geodatabase Feature Classes. Data were extracted from Librarian using the EXTRACT TOPOLOGICAL command. Multi-tiled data sets were extracted into multiple coverages and then combined based on the feature type(s). Layers with both polygon and arc feature classes were processed with the Arc commands, MAPJOIN and DISSOLVE. Arc feature classes alone were processed with the Arc commands, APPEND and DISSOLVE. Layers with both arc and point feature classes and point feature classes alone were processed with the Arc command, APPEND. When used, the Arc command, DISSOLVE, was given with the <#all> option. All coverages were then reprojected to HARN 83 using the following .prj file specifications: INPUT PROJECTION STATEPLANE UNITS FEET ZONE 5551 DATUM NAD27 NADCON PARAMETERS OUTPUT PROJECTION STATEPLANE UNITS FEET FIPSZONE 4501 DATUM HPGN NADCON PARAMETERS END This dataset was then converted to a feature class in a geodatabase in ArcSDE.
New attribute called PL_QUAD added to feature class to identify the Loudoun County Quadrant that each tile is located in.
