Item Information

snippet: This is the Official State of Ohio County Boundary(Lake Features Only) file as delineated and compiled from publicly available source data obtained from: ODOT, ODNR, NOAA’s National Geodetic Survey Data, State of Pennsylvania, and State of Indiana. The full list of resources consulted for this analysis is listed below. While every effort was made to obtain and utilize the most recent and best data possible, there were data limitations that had to be considered, which consisted of having to edge match some of the data for “data completeness.” This was achieved by augmenting the data in very few instances with hand digitizing where small missing segments were found. In the first instance, The Official State of Pennsylvania’s Boundary file did not align with the Lake Erie Shoreline file from ODNR. To alleviate this, the Lake Erie Shoreline was manipulated to “feather” into the Northwest Corner of the PA boundary. This same technique was employed at the Southwest Corner of the Indiana boundary where the KY/OH boundary line and Official State of Indiana boundary file didn’t quite align properly. For this second instance, the Ohio State Boundary was hand digitized and “feathered” from the Official KY/OH Boundary Line. In addition to the minor hand digitizing, the KY/OH boundary line had to be re-projected to “NAD 1983 State Plane Ohio South FIPS 3402 (US Feet) from NAD 1927 Stateline Ohio South FIPS 3402 as that is an outdated and no longer a utilized coordinate system.

The State of Ohio provides these data “as is” and does not warrant or guarantee that these data are complete, accurate or error free.

description: <DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P STYLE="margin:0 0 11 0;"><SPAN>Delineating the Official State of Ohio Boundary file involved extracting 45 NOAA NGS points out of the NGS data for Ohio, and 3 NOAA NGS points were extracted out of the NGS data for Pennsylvania. These 45 NGS points for Ohio fell along the MI/OH boundary and were used to connect the IN/OH boundary East to the Lake Erie Shoreline ODNR data, establishing the MI/OH boundary. Then, the Lake Erie Shoreline file was used to delineate the boundary along Lake Erie Eastward to the OH/PA state line. Those 3 NGS points extracted out of the data for Pennsylvania were then used to connect from the Lake Erie Shoreline Southward to the West Virginia Boundary establishing the OH/PA boundary. The W. Va/OH boundary was established by tracing the existing ODOT County Boundary file to the Official KY/OH boundary line. The KY/OH boundary was established by tracing the Official KY/OH boundary line Westward until the OH/IN border. The IN/OH boundary was established by tracing the existing ODOT County Boundary file Northward until the NOAA NGS point at the MI/OH State Line. Additionally, within Ottawa County, East Harbor, Middle Harbor, and West Harbor were hand digitized utilizing the latest available OSIP imagery (OSIP III imagery) as "inland" water bodies at a scale of 1:1,000. </SPAN></P><P /><P STYLE="margin:0 0 11 0;"><SPAN>Data Limitations:</SPAN></P><P STYLE="margin:0 0 11 0;"><SPAN><SPAN>Due to the lack of knowledge concerning data integrity, neither The State of Pennsylvania’s Official State Boundary file nor The State of Indiana’s Official State Boundary file were used in delineating the Official State of Ohio Boundary file.
