Each attribute modification was made based on surrounding vegetation and substrate information to help determine whether the attribute error was within the vegetation or substrate data layer. Ocean Imaging - Thales 200310 20021004 20021006 ground condition KTUA post processed data submitted by Thales and Ocean Imaging to ensure consistency between the vegetation and substrate data layers, as well as, to ensure that areas Not Surveyed were clearly distinguishable from areas Surveyed but contained No Data. Some data clipping and recoding were necessary to ensure the Suvery and No Data boundaries were correct.
