Abstract:
A shapefile showing single line tributaries along the New Hampshire coastline.
Purpose:
The New Hampshire Coastal Program requested an inventory and analysis of tidal wetlands compatible with NH GRANIT. This dataset was created as basemap data for NH_Coastal_Wetland_Cover.

Data_Quality_Information:
Logical_Consistency_Report:
The current mapping effort used aerial photographs flown between August 4 and 9, 2004 by Sewall Co, Old Town, ME. The aerials are true-color positive transparencies, have a scale of 1:9600, and were flown during the lower half of the tide cycle. The transparencies are generally very high quality, although in some cases, the photos were taken early or late enough in the day that shadows prohibit detection of vegetation near the tree line. The delineations were made on acetate overlays which were then scanned, rubber-sheeted to fit 2003 orthophotos of the area, digitized, and analyzed using ArcView 9.1. Quality control was implemented at all stages of the process, including almost 100% QC of the photointerpretation, groundtruthing to verify representative cover types, and 100% of the digitizing and edit reviews for all changes in GIS. The QC was documented in hard copy whenever possible.
