Description:

Abstract:

The sage grouse distribution late summer use Geographical

Information System (GIS) layer was created as part of the

Nevada Sage Grouse Conservation Plan. The late summer use

map layer is part of a composite view of yearlong range

developed by the Nevada Division of Wildlife biologists

using a combination of historical data, seasonal

observational data, telemetry

data, and professional assessments. Other map layers

include nesting and early brood rearing habitat and winter

use distributions.

Purpose:

The sage grouse distribution late summer use GIS layer is a

subset of the yearlong range and will be distributed statewide among

federal, local and tribal units to aid in the development

of sage grouse management strategies.

Supplemental Information:

Sage grouse occupy a variety of habitats throughout the

summer; also distributions vary according to habitat

quality and extent, climatic conditions, disturbance,

livestock grazing, fire, etc.

DATA QUALITY INFORMATION

Attribute Accuracy:

Attribute Accuracy Report:

All attributes established in the creation process were

verified by displaying the polygons from both the database

and the spatial coverage.

Logical Consistency Report:

The data were rendered logically consistent by using the

\"clean\" and \"build\" commands in Arc/Info.

Completeness Report:

Distributions might change according to variations in sage

grouse population/range.

Positional Accuracy:

Horizontal Positional Accuracy:

Horizontal Positional Accuracy Report:

The data were created by delineating distributions on USGS

30 X 60 minute quadrangle 1:100,000 scale metric

topographic maps. Horizontal Positional Accuracy was tested

by visual comparison of hard copy check plots against

source materials and verifying the location of the data on

screen relative to other data layers in the geographic area.

Vertical Positional Accuracy:

Vertical Positional Accuracy Report:

The data were created by delineating distributions on USGS

30 X 60 minute quadrangle 1:100,000 scale metric

topographic maps. Vertical Positional Accuracy was tested

by visual comparison of hard copy check plots against

source materials and verifying the location of the data on

screen relative to other data layers in the geographic area.

Process Step:

Process Description:

The data were \"heads-up\" digitized from vector data drawn

on 1:100,000

scale 30X60 minute quadrangle metric topographic maps. The

shapefile was used to create a printed map, which was

edited by NV Division of Wildlife regional biologists.

Changes and corrections were made to the

shapefile which was then converted to an Arc/Info coverage.
