Summary
Abstract: This dataset includes a complete project/pedigree file (mandatory); standard
coverage for the soil theme (mandatory), may include hydro theme (for base
data) and annotheme (only where these data have been digitized by CLBRR); the
PAT (Polygon Attribute File) for the soil theme is extended to include the link
to other attribute files and, optionally, additional properties of the polygon

Project
Quality Refer to Davis et al. 2000 for details of orbit error analysis with
SEASAT and GEOSAT. Comparison with laser dH/dt results and other in-situ
data indicates that a typical error value for elevation change estimates
in a 50 km cell is approximately +/- 2 cm/yr (Davis et al. 2001).
