Description:
Abstract:
A digital vector shoreline was manually digitized from the one-meter panchromatic 2002 IKONOS imagery to provide accurate, up-to-date shoreline data as part of the Pacific Islands Geographic Information System (GIS) project
Purpose: This dataset provides accurate, up-to-date shoreline data.

Data_Quality_Information:
Logical_Consistency_Report:
These data are believed to be logically consistent, though no tests were performed. All arcs were snapped by the nodes to create consistantly tied strings without node dangles. Line geometry is topologically clean.
Completeness_Report:
This shoreline dataset of Guam is dependent on the shoreline as delineated on 2001 IKONOS digital satellite imagery from Space Imaging, LLC. The position of the shoreline might change as the natural land changes or better maps and more current aerial photography become available.
Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:
The data were created by delineating the shoreline off of IKONOS panchromatic digital satellite imagery collected in 2000 - 2001. The horizontal resolution of the digital imagery is 1 meter. The original scale of the imagery was 1:3780. During orthorectification of the IKONOS imagery, 73 ground control points were used to determine the circular error (CE) at a 90% confidence level. For Pacific Islands, Guam, IKONOS data, 2002 the circular error is 8.5 meters for the Panchromatic data set.

Process_Description:
During the vectorization process, the satellite imagery was displayed on a computer screen using ESRI's ArcGIS 8.2 software. In order to obtain the highest degree of accuracy from the imagery, the one-meter panchromatic imagery was used as a base layer for digitizing. In an effort to better visualize the land-water interface, the one-meter imagery was overlaid on top of the four-meter multispectral imagery using a 35 % transparency value. The near-infrared band (Band 4) was used in the display of the multispectral imagery. The resultant base layer contained the one-meter resolution of the panchromatic imagery and the colorization of the four-meter imagery. The display was zoomed to the image resolution of the panchromatic imagery and the shoreline was manually digitized. Areas of the shoreline that were obscured by cloud cover were digitized from USGS DRGs. All lines are coded with length, ID, origin, and source. The areas of the shoreline obscured by cloud cover were corrected and digitized by utilizing USGS Digital Ortho Quad Photos.
Known problems: The USGS DRGs for Guam had to be adjusted in the x and y directions using ERDAS Imagine 8.5 to match the IKONOS imagery.

Process_Step:
Process_Description:
Further modification of the Guam shoreline was conducted by staff within the Coastal Management Program. ArcView 3.2 was used to adjust shapefile vector vertices. Most alterations were done by combining the visual information available within the one-meter panchromatic imagery of Guam together with local knowledge of the coastline , and some DOQ data from NPS through USGS. Metadata was updated using ArcGIS 8.2 software.
