Description:
Abstract:
This data layer represents boundaries of the California counties that neighbor the Russian River basin. Features from the original source data (see Originator information) were selected based on their spatial location within the Russian River watershed in Sonoma and Mendocino counties in California (the study area boundary of the Russian River Watershed Adaptive Management Plan project). This metadata file incorporates much of the information that was available in the metadata of the original source data. This information is indicated in quotation marks.

" The 'COUNTY' layer contains county lines and features (usually
shorelines). The county outline was digitized from 1:100,000
scale mylar USGS quad sheets."
Purpose:
This data layer was edited from its original source data set for inclusion in the Russian River Watershed Adaptive Management Plan (RRWAMP) and RRWAMP Baseline Watershed Assessment project. The intended use of this data layer in this project is to examine landscape or human factors to promote ecological health and sustainability within the Russian River watershed.

" Users can draw this layer instead of using the tile boundary
(which is also a county line). Users can display shorelines
or legal county lines or both by employing the BAY and
DISPLAY items. This is a polygon layer; users should be
prepared for counties with multiple polygons."

" The following are subjective comments regarding this data.

This layer is complete and the accuracy is good. Attributes
which are present are necessary for resolution of county
line subsets, i.e., bayshore, and the accuracy is excellent."

Process_Description:
This data layer was created for the Russian River Watershed Adaptive Management Plan (RRWAMP) and RRWAMP Baseline Watershed Assessment project through minor editing to the original source data. Data were clipped to the project study area boundary (rr_watershed_bndy.shp) and projected using ESRI's ArcGIS GeoProcessing tools; and renamed to the current file name.

Entity_and_Attribute_Overview:
"NOTE: Items common to all POLYGON coverages: AREA,
PERIMETER, CO100A# and CO100A-ID are not
described here.

NAME: County name

NUM: County number (sequence number when counties are
listed alphabetically by name)

BAY: This item differentiates between mainland, island
and water polygons within a county.
0 = Mainland
1 = Water
2 = Island

DISPLAY: Counties are sometimes comprised of several
polygons. The one largest polygon per county is
coded with the number 1 . The remaining polygons
are coded with the number 0. This is useful when using
polygontext commands so that county names will
be displayed only once per county."
