- Abstract:
-
The Soils coverage was created as part of the Tijuana River Watershed GIS database base project. It includes information on the location and type of soils contained within and around the Tijuana River Watershed.
- Purpose:
-
The Tijuana River Watershed GIS Database project provides a fully integrated cross border geographic information system. It is important to understand the transportation opportunities and linkages that exist in and around the Tijuana River Watershed.

-
- Attribute_Accuracy:
-
- Attribute_Accuracy_Report:
-
All attributes created during the data generation phase were verified by comparing both the dataset and the spatial coverage, but no formal tests were performed.
- Completeness_Report:
-
The soils coverage was created by merging data from El Colegio de la frontera Norte and San Diego State University Department of Geography. At the time of coverage completion, the polygon boundaries are believed to be correct.
- Logical_Consistency_Report:
-
These data are believed to be logically consistent, though no tests were performed. Polygon geometry is topologically clean.

While this data have been collected for use in spatial analysis and decision making, and for use in Geographic Information Systems, San Diego State Univeristy, 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 responsbile for the appropriate application of and use of this data.
