Attribute_Accuracy:
Attribute_Accuracy_Report:
Isoheytals were digitized from printed map for Colorado. Source is form paper published by Nolan Doesken, Assistant State Climatologist. Paper was published in Colorado Climate, March 1992, Vol. 15 No. 6. Digital Accuracy is considered fair.
Logical_Consistency_Report:
Isoheytals were digitized from source data and clipped to DWR division boundary.

Process_Step:
Process_Description:
1) The data were originally in a polygon shapefile for the western slope. Converted polygons to isolines, removing the lines for the external boundaries of the study area. 2) Assigned values to the isolines from the polygon attributes. The polygons were attributed with values that were roughly the average of the isolines that bounded them. The values had been multiplied by 10. For example, an isoline that divides two polygons with values of 173 and 178 was assigned a value of 17.5. 3) Clipped to the DWR Division boundary.
