Abstract:
This dataset contains boundaries for all New Mexico Senate Legislative

Districts. It is in a vector digital data structure digitized from a map of

New Mexico whose scale is unknown. The source software was ARC/INFO 6.1.1 and

the conversion software was ARC/INFO 7.0.3.

Descriptors

Senate Districts, Boundaries, Legislative Boundaries, New Mexico

Purpose:
This dataset was created to digitally represent the political bound

aries of New Mexico Senate Districts.

These data are typically used as base data for other coverages. The

data are intended for use as a general reference to the extent and boundaries

of the Senate Legislative Districts.

Supplemental_Information:
Procedures_used:

Data completeness reflect the content of the source graphic. Only New

Mexico Senate Legislative District boundaries were extracted from the source

graphic. The data contains all the lines and polygons representing the New

Mexico House Legislative District boundaries and the New Mexico state

boundaries.

Revisions:

Attributes were updated in early 1997 to reflect changes due

to the last election.

Polygon topology present.

Tolerances were chosen to prevent errors in labels,

intersections, tics, overshoots, and undershoots. Tests

were performed to detect these types of errors and necessary

corrections were made.

Entity_and_Attribute_Information:
Overview_Description:
Entity_and_Attribute_Overview:
no errors were detected. All lines and polygons were inspected, verified, and

corrected by performing a "clean" using ARC/Edit in ARC/INFO 6.1.1.

Cartographic and spatial topology accuracy are 100%. Horizontal accuracy is

tested by visual comparison on digital data with the source data using check

plots. RMS is 0.004 inches. Attributes were updated in early 1997

to reflect changes due to the last election.
