Abstract: The civil municipal districts coverage delineates the incorporated cities, civil townships (commonly known as "towns"), and villages in Columbia County. A variety of sources at several different scales and dates were used. The burden for determining 'fitness for use' rests entirely upon the requestor. Columbia County and its co-producers will not be liable in any way for accuracy of the data, and assume no responsibility whatsoever for direct, indirect, special, consequential, exemplary or other damages.

FGDC and ESRI Metadata:

Metadata elements shown with blue text are defined in the Federal Geographic Data Committee's (FGDC) Content Standard for Digital Geospatial Metadata (CSDGM). Elements shown with green text are defined in the ESRI Profile of the CSDGM. Elements shown with a green asterisk (*) will be automatically updated by ArcCatalog. ArcCatalog adds hints indicating which FGDC elements are mandatory; these are shown with gray text.

Abstract:
The civil municipal districts coverage delineates the incorporated cities, civil townships (commonly known as "towns"), and villages in Columbia County. A variety of sources at several different scales and dates were used. The burden for determining 'fitness for use' rests entirely upon the requestor. Columbia County and its co-producers will not be liable in any way for accuracy of the data, and assume no responsibility whatsoever for direct, indirect, special, consequential, exemplary or other damages.

Purpose:
Civil Municipal District data provides consultants, planners, resource managers and other county staff with information on the location on municipalities within Columbia County.  The information contained in this coverage is one of Wisconsin Land Information Program's foundational elements and supports the county's goals and objectives relating to land information as well as the county's information technology vision, mission, goals, strategies and plan.

Data Quality Information:


Attribute accuracy:
Attribute accuracy report:
Attribute accuracy is tested by manual comparison of the source data with display of the digital data attributes.  The Columbia County Land Information Office Geospatial Technologies Section checked 100% of the data for attribute accuracy.

Logical consistency report:
This data set is topological structured for polygons and arcs for the entire Columbia County area. The geographic data represented by this coverage is stored according to a vector based data type.  With a vector data structure, geographic entities are represented as point, lines, and areas depicted on a 2-dimensional surface.  Each point is identified by a single x-y location; lines are identified by a sequence of x-y coordinates; areas are identified by a series of x-y coordinates as defined by line segments that close to form a polygon.

Completeness report:
The features represented in this data set are, to the best knowledge of the Columbia County Land Information Office, representative of all administrative boundaries of this type represented in Columbia County.  Data is updated continually using documents recorded with the Columbia County Register of Deeds.

Positional accuracy:
Horizontal positional accuracy:
Horizontal positional accuracy report:
Accuracy of this digital data is dependent upon the scale, date, and origin of the source material used to create this geographic data set.

Process step:
Process description:
Municipal Boundaries in Columbia County were created by manipulating and updating the 1:100,000 scale WDNR Municipal Civil District coverage base with the 1:24,000 WDNR 24K Landnet coverage.  During this process, municipal boundaries that followed landnet division were replaced with the 24K Landnet base.  Further revisions are made the this coverage as information regarding annexations was researched in the Columbia County Land Information Office using the Tax Parcel Maps or in the Register of Deeds Office.  Data is currently maintained using annexation surveys or other documents of legal record.
