- Data Quality Information
- Attribute Accuracy Report
- Station attributes were obtained from the NREL and were then confirmed via the internet when possible
- Quantitative Attribute Accuracy Assessment
- Logical Consistency Report
- All point records in this dataset are represented by a single coordinate pair and a unique feature identifier. BTS quality checks were to cross reference the place dataset with the state dataset, to determine that the spatial data and attribute data were accurate.
