Abstract: |
This data set is a digital version of Geological Survey of Canada (GSC) Map 1816, Kemptville Gold District, compiled by E. R. Faribault, 1919. The digital product was compiled by the Nova Scotia Department of Natural Resources (NSNR&R), Mineral Resources Branch (MRB). The digital product was digitized from GSC Map 1816 and the databases were developed from the information contained on this map. The product contains layers for geological features such as: faults, neatline, outcrops, structural data, text locations, veins, and other geological features. Also included are base layers such as: buildings, hydrology, railways, roads (single and double line), rivers and streams, swamps, and other features. |
|
|
Purpose: |
The purpose of this data set is to create a digital version of GSC Map 1814, Carleton-Kemptville Gold Area |

Positional Accuracy Report: |
There may be positional accuracy errors in the digital data that come from the original data collection, plus there are errors added by the process of digitizing the features off the original published GSC Map 1814 onto the digital 1:10 000 topographic base maps. There will be some inaccuracies resulting from this process as well as those that are inherent in the 1:10 000 base maps. |

In July 2006 Brian Fisher did a final review of the data set and checked the following items:
1 - I added the string "gis2005-" to the station numbers (STATI_NUM) in the OS, and ST themes.
I updated the STATI_PRFX, STATI_ID and STATI_NUM fields in the OS shapefile. In the ST shapefile I had to update the STATI_NUM field by removing the reference to OS in the values. |

Description: |
While reviewing the data set we discover that when it was originally digitized the scanned map was rectified to a lake called 2nd Crawley Lake which is actually located a few kilometers to the east of Crawley Lake which it should have been rectified to. Both lakes had similar shapes and names so at a quick look it appeared to be the correct location.
The scanned map was properly georefferenced by Angie Ehler using ArcGIS 9.1. She then used the spatial adjustment tools in ArcGIS 9.1 and moved all 16 of the shapefiles to the correct position based on the new location of the scanned map. |

Technical Prerequisite: |
In order to view this data set, mapping software is required (eg. ArcView, MapInfo, AutoCAD). If you do not have this software, ESRI provides a free map viewer called ArcExplorer, which you can download over the Internet. This viewer works with the E00 files and an ArcExplorer Import Utility (import71.exe) is needed to convert the E00 files into ArcInfo coverages, which can be then viewed in ArcExplorer.
ArcView Project Information
Our SHP products include an ArcView project which have all of the shapefiles symbolized and tables loaded with link and joins already created. This project uses relative paths so it should be drive and path independent. It can be found in the c:\data_set_id\arcview\project directory.
ArcExplorer Project Information
We have also included an ArcExplorer 2 project (.aep) and an ArcExplorer 4 (.axl) project for this data set that can be found in the c:\data_set_id\arcexpl directory. The shapefiles are already loaded and have limited symbolization, any related tables are not loaded. The AEP project uses relative paths and should be no problem using it without any changes. The AXL project includes a string "#DPMEPATH#" which you will need to search for and replace with your drive letter and a colon (ex: c:) in order to make the project work. Please note the if you do not install the data set using the default path you may need to replace other parts of the reference to the path in the AXL.
Hotlinks
In order to use the hotlink feature within ArcView 3.x in you may need to load MRB's Hotlink Anything extension which may be located in the arcview/ext directory along with documentation. You may also need to set the variable MEBGIS_HOME on your system to the location of the data set on your system. The SHP product provides an ArcView project set up with the hotlinks working. Some modifications to the HOTLINK field in the database tables or in the HLFILES may be required to make the hotlink work properly. Knowledge of ArcView and hotlinks may be required to make this work properly.
A feature called hotlinks is used in ArcView to link a feature such as a mineral occurrence or cross section to a single text file, image or website etc. For features that we want to link multiple items or documents to we have developed our own hotlink extension for ArcView 3.x called "Hotlink Anything". The extension and documentation on how to install the extension, and set the required MEBGIS_HOME variable to the location of the data set on your system is included in the x:\nsgov\dig_prod_num\data_set_id\arcview\ext directory (example - c:\nsgov\dp305v1sh\g118a\arcview\ext) assuming that you used our default directories when downloading the data. The SHP product provides an ArcView project set up with the hotlinks working. Some modifications to the HOTLINK field in the database tables or in the HLFILES.TXT file may be required to make the hotlink work properly. Knowledge of ArcView and hotlinks may be required to make the native hotlink utility or our extension work properly
Problems and Limitations
Problems have been reported trying to import ARC E00 files into ArcView on Windows 95 computers. Related tables do not import into ArcView. It is not a problem on UNIX, Windows 3.1 or Windows NT platforms. If you experience this problem you can use our DXF/DBF product which contains the tables in dBase format. dBase files can be imported into ArcView.
This map is intended for use at the published scale of 1:3000. |
