Description:
Abstract:
Kz_bndry contains the boundary polygon for KPBS. It was digitized in Arc/Info 7.0 using 1:12,000 digital ortho quad images as a backcover. The coverage is stored as an Arc/Info coverage.
Purpose:
Intended for use as the KPBS boundary file and as a clip coverage for other KPBS data.
Supplemental_Information:
Konza boundary layers, and other KPBS GIS layers were revised in 1998 to register correctly with 1:12,000 DOQQ images. This coverage will not register correctly with KPBS coverages created prior to January, 1998.

Logical_Consistency_Report:
The coverage was visually inspected to insure that boundary arcs correctly overlaid with boundary ground features visible on DOQs. Boundaries that were not clearly distinguishable from DOQs were ground-truthed using GPS-derived coordinates.
