Native_Data_Set_Environment: Microsoft Windows 2000 Version 5.0 (Build 2195) Service Pack 4; ESRI ArcCatalog 8.3.0.800 Data_Quality_Information: Attribute_Accuracy: Attribute_Accuracy_Report: This data is based upon the inclusion of springs as additional data in Atlantic salmon habitat surveys, and so represents an incomplete survey of springs for the entire drainage. Completeness_Report: This dataset is complete for surveys conducted on the Sheepscot River in 1997, 1998 and 2002, but is not meant to represent a comprehensive survey of the watershed for spring locations; these points were derived from Atlantic salmon habitat surveys primarily focused on establishing the limits of spawning and rearing habitat in the river. Positional_Accuracy: Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy: Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report: These data points are accurate to within 2 - 5 meters based upon the use of Trimble Pro-XL and GeoExplorer3 Global Positioning System (GPS) receivers and post-processing for differential correction. In general, PDOP values for the receivers were kept below 4.0 and Signal-to-Noise Ratio was greater than 6.0, resulting in sub-meter accuracy. During some parts of the survey the PDOP mask was increased to values of greater than 4.0 due to poor signal reception. Base station files were acquired from the University of Maine Community Base Station.

Source_Scale_Denominator: Not Applicable Type_of_Source_Media: computer disk drive Source_Time_Period_of_Content: Time_Period_Information: Single_Date/Time: Calendar_Date: 3/31/2004 Source_Contribution: Maine Atlantic salmon habitat surveys provided points of interest, including access points, obstructions, landmarks, and tributaries, as well as springs. Process_Step: Process_Description: Points representing spring locations identified on the Sheepscot River and selected tributaries in the course of Atlantic salmon habitat surveys were selected from the ashabpts statewide habitat-related points dataset, and were exported to create their own ESRI shapefile. Data was edited to extract important data, and superfluous fields were then dropped.
