- Abstract:
-
Drainage is a base map data layer derived by automated processes and processed for cartographic representation at 1:2400 scale. The line features represent the any visible surface drainage feature, natural or manmade, as seen from above and are mapped to National Map Accuracy Standards (NMAS). Drainage arcs must logically follow topo contours downhill and are not disconnected when traveling through culverts, under bridges or representing the centerline of double-line streams and ponds. Drain arcs will be captured according to proper orientation or direction of flow. Photogrammetrically derived drainage DOES includes known underground culvert and pipe connections with stormwater infrastructure points and other visible surface outlets. This drainage layer DOES NOT include subsurface groundwater flow, fine soil drain patterns in swales, or any other historical surface drains.
- Purpose:
-
Drainage is used in agricultural and farm plans, stormwater management, comprehensive planning, floodplain management, and facility planning.
- Supplemental_Information:
-
Data are stored in the corporate ArcSDE Geodatabase as a line 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

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.

Loudoun County has a goal to create an enhanced drainage arcs layer through integration of field-surveyed data, while maintaining connectivity, directionality and attribution of photogrammetrically-derived drains. Subsequently, photogrammetrically derived surface drainage was manually connected to GPS-surveyed, known stormwater infrastructure features. These connection points are the only permissable variations between orthophoto features and vector data.
The following Stormwater Integration Rules were applied to the compilation of drainage arcs:
1. Feature = CULVTPT, PIPEIO, and CNTRLDE are used as snapping points in drainage collection.
2.Stormwater infrastructure data provides guidance for directionality and rule of placement for location of culverts, pipes and headwalls and are snapped to coincident features within 20' radius of proximity. If no stormwater GPS point exists within 20' radius of proximity, headwall is represented as best as possible along drain network.
3. Stormwater data represents transitions from surface to sub-grade drainage. Sub-grade connections and direction can be determined using stormwater lines.
4. Snapping was done on visible surface drain arcs to CULVTPT and/or PIPEIO endpoints along network within 20' radius of proximity.
5. Sub-grade, null drains through culverts (DR_Type = 5) are collected per usual, regardless of existence of CULVERT or PIPE line.
6. If open channel (DR_Type = 9) is defined and visible along roadside ditch, it is snapped to CULVTPT culvert points and is connected with null drains (DR_Type = 5).
7. Stormwater lines are used to assist in determination of surface drainage flow direction. There is a high degree of confidence in accuracy of flow direction as these were collected in the field by surveyors.
8. Pond Null arcs (DR_Type = 4) are snapped to control devices CNTRLDE if present in wet or dry ponds.
9. All above-grade, Miscellaneous features (manholes, headwalls/culverts, paved channels) are captured as usual, per contract. Headwalls (MI_Type = 5) shall be coincident with CULVTPT points,
which connect surface drain arcs (DR_Type = 2, 6, or 9) and sub-grade null arcs (DR_Type = 5)

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%

not exist on 2018 imagery were deleted.
4. Modifications were done if there was a change in the shape and size of the
features.
5. All the new and updated features were modified and coded as Update_Date=
'2018.
6. Updated data was checked for edge matching.
7. DTM was modified in the update area.
8. Contours were generated, coded and edge matched with the legacy contour data.
9. Spot Elevation Points were placed.
10. All clean up tools were run.
11. Data was exported to PGDB.
12. QA/ QC Program was run and reported errors were corrected.
13. Updated data was checked against 2018 Orthos for completeness.
14. All the delivery blocks were merged into a single PGDB.
15. Updated Data was merged with the Legacy data.

Feature Depiction Descriptions based on USACE publication, EM 1110-1-1000, July 31, 2002 and further developed according to Loudoun County Data Dictionary.
Centerline through double line stream [Type = 1]
Null centerline of a double-line stream polygon in Water Bodies.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Single-line Creek /Stream [Type = 2]
Nonnavigable stream. Digitize center lines of streams narrower than 15 ft. Streams wider than 15' are captured as double-line stream polygons in Water Bodies.
----------------------------------------------------------------
#Soil Drain [Type = 3]
Captured/Coded by County as an intermittent, upland drainage swale, generally without a visible scour channel.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Centerline through pond or lake [Type = 4]
Non-tangible or null arc that is created in the central location of standing water to show continuity amongst incoming and outgoing streams.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Centerline through bridge or Culvert [Type = 5]
Connect with straight line (null arc) from the last visible point. Nodes shall be placed at headwalls or culverts where visible, not clipped to road casing boundary. In all cases where a surface drainage features goes underground, use this code regardless of culvert or headwall presence.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Centerline across Paved Ditch [Type = 6]
Digitize null centerline of paved ditch. Cap ends or join cleanly with headwalls, if present. Paved channels will be more heavily associated with stormwater drains and water impoundments.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Null Connectors [Type = 7]
Null arcs designed to maintain connectivity and directionality of flow by connecting single line streams to double line stream centerlines or one double line stream centerline to another.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Discontinuous Drain [Type = 8]
Drain that is not a continuous above ground feature or fails to connect to further downstream features.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Centerline of open (unpaved) channels or ditches [Type = 9]
Unpaved, manmade drainage features normally adjacent to roadways. Digitize centerline of any trough greater than 200 feet in length.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Centerline through Potomac River [Type = 10]
Null CL through Potomac River.
