This is a Raster data set. It contains the following raster data types:
Planar coordinates are encoded using Row and Column
Abscissae (x-coordinates) are specified to the nearest 2.400000
Ordinates (y-coordinates) are specified to the nearest 2.400000
Planar coordinates are specified in meters
The horizontal datum used is D_WGS_1984.
The ellipsoid used is WGS_1984.
The semi-major axis of the ellipsoid used is 6378137.000000.
The flattening of the ellipsoid used is 1/298.257224.
| Value | Definition |
|---|---|
| 0 Pervious | Features which allow infiltration from precipitation. |
| 1 Impervious | Anthropogenic features such as buildings, parking lots and roads developed from asphalt, concrete or other constructed surfaces which do not allow infiltration from precipitation. |
To create a baseline inventory of impervious surfaces which can be utilized by state and local resource managers to assess the impacts precipitation events on water quality and flooding.

No automated accuracy was performed during or at the end of the impervious map production process. Quality Control was carried out by cross-examination Maui Impervious map with the QuickBird image. Errors of omission and commission were corrected. All impervious objects sized smaller than the Minimum Mapping Unit (25 sq m) were ignored and not included in Maui impervious map
12 meters CE90
There was no terrain correction in the geo-referencing procedure.
Data set is complete.
Tests for logical consistency indicate that all row and column positions in the selected latitude/longitude window contain data. Conversion and integration with vector files indicates that all positions are consistent with earth coordinates covering the same area. Attribute files are logically consistent.
