The USGS is the collector of the mapped boundary data (compiler). The State of Connecticut, Office of Policy and Management is the source for the list of towns (municipalities) in each planning region (compiler). The State of Connecticut, Department of Energy and Environmental Protection is the creator and maintainer of the data layer (editor) and producer (publisher) of this information for use.

Data is updated as needed and compiled at 1:125,000 scale.

Description

A characterization of the data, including its intended use and limitations.

Abstract:

Connecticut Planning Region Index is a 1:125,000-scale polygon feature-based layer that includes a polygon feature for every Connecticut Regional Planning Organization. There are 14 polygon features in this layer. The corresponding Regional Planning Organization number and name attributes uniquely identify individual polygon features. The Regional Planning Organization number values are based on an alphabetic sort of Regional Planning Organization names and range from 1 to 14.

Purpose:

Connecticut Planning Region Index is a general purpose index map of Connecticut Planning Regions based on mapped information compiled at 1:125,000 scale (1 inch equals approximately 2 miles) and a list of towns in each region available from the State of Connecticut, Office of Policy and Management. The layer is designed to be used to depict Connecticut Planning Regions at small scales or on small maps printed on regular size (8.5 x 11 inch) paper, for example. This Planning Region Index layer does not accurately represent planning region boundaries because it was digitized at 1:125,000 scale. Do not display, map or analyze this index layer with information collected at larger scales. To depict more accurate 1:24,000-scale Connecticut state, county, town, and planning region boundaries on a map, use the layer named Town, which is also published by the State of Connecticut Department of Energy and  Environmental Protection. The 2012 Edition reflects consolidation of two organizations into the Lower Connecticut River Council of Governments.

+ Data Quality and Accuracy Information

General

Information about the fidelity of relationships, data quality and accuracy tests, omissions, selection criteria, generalization, and definitions used to derive the data.

Logical consistency report:

Polygon features conform to the following topological rules. Polygons are single part. There are no duplicate polygons. Polygons do not self overlap. Polygons do not overlap other polygons. Establishment of logical consistency was orginally performed by the State of Connecticut, Department of Environmental Protection using ESRI ArcInfo software to manually create and control feature topology. The original minimum distance between vertices (ArcInfo Coverage fuzzy tolerance) and a minimum allowed overshoot length (ArcInfo Coverage dangle length) were not documented and unknown at the time this metadata was created in 2005. However, the original data was known to be topologically clean. After subsequently converting the data from ESRI ArcInfo Coverage to ESRI Shapefile format, no automated procedures or tests were performed to enforce the topology rules other than visual inspection.

Completeness report:

The completeness of the data  reflects the feature content of two data sources - a 1:125,000-scale planemetric map of Connecticut published by the U.S Geological Survey and a list of towns in each planning region available from the State of Connecticut, Office of Policy and Management. This data is updated as needed based on information from the State of Connecticut, Office of Policy and Managment.

Attribute Accuracy

Accuracy of the identification of data entities, features and assignment of attribute values.

Attribute accuracy report:

All attributes have valid values. Values are within defined domains. The Regional Planning Organization number and name polygon attributes were manually entered.

Positional Accuracy

Accuracy of the positional aspects of the data.

Horizontal accuracy report:

The horizontal positional accuracy of this data is unknown. Avoid displaying or printing this information at map scales greater than 1:125,000 (1 inch equals approximately 2 miles).

Town_Index.shp is in Shapefile format. Prior to 2005, this shapefile was named Town.shp. Town_Index is based on boundary information published on a 1;125,000-scale U.S. Gelogical Survey planimetric map of the State of Connecticut. The planimetry for this map was revised in 1974.

Process step information

Process Step 1

Process description:

Create Planning Region Index layer - Planning Region Index is derived from the 1:125,000-scale Town Index layer, which is also published by the State of Connecticut, Department of Energy and Environmental Protection. To derive planning region polygon features from town polygon features, town features were attributed with regional planning organization number and name values. Town polygon features in the same region were then merged to form fourteen polygon features, one for each planning region. The TOWN_NO and TOWN attributes from the Town Index layer were replaced with RPO_COD and REGPLANORG attributes that store regional planning organization number and name, respectively.

Metadata Standards

Description of the metadata standard used to document the data and reference to any additional extended profiles to the standard used by the metadata producer.

Standard name: FGDC Content Standards for Digital Geospatial Metadata

Standard version: FGDC-STD-001-1998

Time convention: local time

Metadata profiles defining additonal information:

Profile: ESRI Metadata Profile

Online linkage: http://www.esri.com/metadata/esriprof80.html

FGDC Plus Metadata Stylesheet

Stylesheet: FGDC Plus Stylesheet

File name: FGDC Plus.xsl

Version: 2.2

Description: This metadata is displayed using the FGDC Plus Stylesheet, which is an XSL template that can be used with ArcGIS software to display metadata. It displays metadata elements defined in the Content Standard for Digital Geospatial Metadata (CSDGM) - aka FGDC Standard, the ESRI Profile of CSDGM, the Biological Data Profile of CSDGM, and the Shoreline Data Profile of CSDGM. CSDGM is the US Federal Metadata standard. The Federal Geographic Data Committee originally adopted the CSDGM in 1994 and revised it in 1998. According to Executive Order 12096 all Federal agencies are ordered to use this standard to document geospatial data created as of January, 1995. The standard is often referred to as the FGDC Metadata Standard and has been implemented beyond the federal level with State and local governments adopting the metadata standard as well. The Biological Data Profile broadens the application of the CSDGM so that it is more easily applied to biological data that are not explicitly geographic (laboratory results, field notes, specimen collections, research reports) but can be associated with a geographic location. Includes taxonomical vocabulary. The Shoreline Data Profile addresses variability in the definition and mapping of shorelines by providing a standardized set of terms and data elements required to support metadata for shoreline and coastal data sets. The FGDC Plus Stylesheet includes the Dublin Core Metadata Element Set. It supports W3C DOM compatible browsers such as IE7, IE6, Netscape 7, and Mozilla Firefox. It is in the public domain and may be freely used, modified, and redistributed. It is provided "AS-IS" without warranty or technical support.
