Standards

Developing the NH GRANIT database relies on the cooperative efforts of staff from a number of agencies and organizations. Because of the shared nature of the development process, it is crucial that both data users and data providers understand and utilize a common set of standards and procedures as the basis for constructing and maintaining each layer. Adherence to these standards will help assure the accuracy and consistency of the data layers, proper registration of digital cartographic features, and sufficient data documentation, thus enhancing the overall efficiency and usefulness of the NH GRANIT database.
