Description:
Abstract:
The Tijuana River Watershed digital faults file was created as part of the Tijuana River Watershed GIS database project. This digital layer consists of lines representing fault lines in the watershed.
Purpose:
The Tijuana River Watershed GIS Database project provides a fully integrated cross border geographic information system. One of the layers in the dataset is a digital faults layer. This layer provides information on the underlying faults of the watershed.

Data_Quality_Information:
Attribute_Accuracy:
Attribute_Accuracy_Report:
All attributes created during the data generation phase were verified by comparing the lines in both the dataset and the spatial coverage, but no formal tests were performed.
Logical_Consistency_Report:
These data are believed to be logically consistent, though no tests were performed. Line geometry is topologically clean.
Completeness_Report:
These data are believed to be complete as compiled directly from the source materials. No generalization of source data was performed.
Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:
Horizontal positional accuracy of the source material is unknown.
Vertical_Positional_Accuracy:
Vertical_Positional_Accuracy_Report: Vertical positional accuracy of the source material is unknown.

Distribution_Liability:
While this data have been collected for use in spatial analysis and decision making, and for use in Geographic Information Systems, San Diego State University, Department of Geography, the Center for Earth Systems Analysis Research, and El Colegio de la Frontera Norte cannot guarantee the accuracy of the data. As with any spatial data, issues of scale, taxonomic classification, resolution, and precision will affect the perceived accuracy of the data. Users are ultimately responsible for the appropriate application of and use of this data.
