  Attributes have been checked against information in the DLG file headers.
Logical consistency report: polygon and arc-node topology exist
Completeness report: The data set is complete.
Horizontal Positional Accuracy Report:
  Quadrangle corners were generated from latitude/longitude coordinates. Coordinates are accurate within limits of projection software accuracy.
