Title: Water Bodies of Loudoun County, VA (2020)
Geospatial_Data_Presentation_Form: vector digital data
Description:
Abstract:
Water Bodies, including surface elevation, are a base map data layer derived by automated processes and processed for cartographic representation at 1:2400 scale. The polygon features represent the ponds, reservoirs, stormwater impoundments, marshes, and major creeks and rivers found on the County's base map as seen from above and are mapped to National Map Accuracy Standards (NMAS).
Purpose:
Water Bodies are used for water supply planning, the administration of related zoning restrictions, and to locate water supplies in rural areas for fighting fires.
Supplemental_Information:
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, NAVD88, US Survey foot units.
OMAGI updates all base map data via photogrammetric process, using aerial imagery that is flown yearly. A different portion of the county is updated each year with the base map maintenance services contract, depending upon development patterns and update funding. The field “UPD_DATE” indicates the date a feature was last re-mapped. For a map of the most recent reviews and updates within the county, please click on https://arcg.is/0Tm9PW0

Data_Quality_Information:
Attribute_Accuracy:
Attribute_Accuracy_Report:
Water Bodies have undergone extensive Quality Assurance procedures to ensure feature attribution is consistent with the data dictionary and adheres to a logical relationship with neighboring features and layers.
Quantitative_Attribute_Accuracy_Assessment:
Attribute_Accuracy_Value: >90% attribute accuracy exists
Attribute_Accuracy_Explanation:
27 separate block study areas underwent QA/QC comparison with the source orthophoto and overlaying base map layers. Greater than 90% of all features in each block achieve correct TYPE attribution. OMAGI compiled a separate PGDB for known attribute errors above 90% threshold.
Logical_Consistency_Report: Topologically clean
Completeness_Report:
Base Map features have been updated from different sources and in different years. Although the entire county was originally mapped, users should be cautious and aware that any particular area of interest may not be absolutely current and up to date. A generalized map of update years can be located at the OMAGI's webpage. The next anticipated update shall occur using 2016 imagery.
Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:
Accuracy Assessments have been computed according to The National Standard for Spatial Data Accuracy (NSSDA). NSSDA implements a statistical and testing methodology for estimating the positional accuracy of points on maps and in digital geospatial data with respect to georeferenced ground positions of higher accuracy. Accuracy is reported in ground distances at the 95% confidence level. Accuracy reported at the 95% confidence level means that 95% of the positions in the dataset will have an error with respect to true ground position that is equal to or smaller than the reported accuracy value. Data has been tested and meets NSSDA and ASPRS accuracy requirements for 1:2400 scale maps.
Vertical_Positional_Accuracy:
Quantitative_Vertical_Positional_Accuracy_Assessment:
Vertical_Positional_Accuracy_Value: RMSE (Z or Elev.)= 1.24; Tested 2.43 US Survey feet
Vertical_Positional_Accuracy_Explanation:
Measured at 95% confidence level, any points measured will be within 2.43 US Survey feet in the vertital domain.

Process_Description:
Aerial film was acquired and imaged in 2002 (Virginia Base Mapping Program (VBMP) color) and 2004 (Loudoun County annual aerial mission (black & white). The imagery was scanned at 21 microns. Ground control used to support the compilation and was collected by identifying strategic locations on the aerial photography plan and then determining the coordinates by GPS ground survey techniques.
The Aerial Triangulation was performed using softcopy workstations. Bundle adjustment was performed and Digital Elevation Models were created using and planimetric data were collected using standard photogrammetric collection techniques for breaklines and masspoints on soft copy workstations. Final deliverables in ESRI Interchange (E00) file format were placed on CD for delivery to OMAGI.

Process_Description:
Each of the Base Map Data Layer coverages in the 27 delivery blocks comprising Phases I and II were loaded into a single Geodatabase Feature Class using ArcGIS Simple Data Loader. The entire feature class was then dissolved using ArcToolBox Dissolve, such that any adjacent features with identical values in all attributes consolidated into one feature. Record Counts, Frequencies, Length or Area summaries and final Topology checks were performed throughout the conversion procedure to ensure that multiple coverage data input matched single feature class data output (per TYPE code). 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%

WA_TYPE: Designation of water type code description ---- ------------------ 1 Double line stream 4 Lake or Pond 7 Dry Stormwater Retention Pond 10 Potomac River 11 Swamp/Marsh
Entity_and_Attribute_Detail_Citation:
Feature Depiction Descriptions based on USACE publication, EM 1110-1-1000, July 31, 2002 and further developed according to Loudoun County Data Dictionary.
Double line Stream [Type = 1] Digitize shorelines of streams, creeks or rivers wider than 15 ft, may or may not be navigable. Includes area hidden under bridges. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Lake or Pond [Type = 4] Shoreline of a large inland body of usually fresh water with a minimum area of 50' x 50' or .05 acre. Show man-made reservoirs as lakes. Ponds are bodies of standing water much smaller than a lake, often man-made. Water elevation attributed for all lakes and ponds greater than 1/10th of an acre. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Dry Retention Pond [Type = 7] Manmade stormwater retention pond typically associated with flood control structure and/or berm. Typically dry, but may contain marsh vegetation, takes precedence over marsh/swamp. Digitize at top of berm. This feature will not be attributed with a WA_WELEV value, but rather shall usually contain a spot elevation at the lowest point inside the smallest enclosed contour. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Potomac River [Type = 10] Digitize shorelines & islands of Potomac River bounding the County to the north. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Swamp or Marsh [Type = 11] Area of spongy, wet ground, usually harboring vegetation. No distinction is made between a swamp, marsh, or inundated area.
