Statement: The spatial data coverage is complete for the entire dataset. Attribute data are available for the entire dataset. Completeness of classification: the adopted classification method covers all features. Completeness of verification: a topographical consistency check was carried out by the photogrammetrist. The GIS package (ArcInfo) was used to do a topological consistency check to detect flaws in the spatial data structure and to flag them as errors. This check insures that all classified polygons are closed, nodes are formed at the intersection of lines and that there is only one label within each polygon, etc. Data generated by analytical stereo plotting from aerial photography dated 23.1.97.
