FileCultural Resource Geospatial Data Transfer Standard
Date: March 4, 2014 Scope: The standard will be used to create, maintain, and distribute cultural resource spatial data. The standard will specify which cultural resources require spatial data, what type of geometry i.e. point, line, or polygon is appropriate for representing cultural resources, and the minimal positional accuracy of legacy and future data. It insures that geospatial data are linked to attribute databases that describe each cultural resource. Moreover the proposed standard will address each Federal agency’s responsibility to safeguard sensitive cultural resource geospatial data. Finally, the proposed standard will identify the feature level metadata that should accompany each geospatial dataset.
