Abstract:
FEMS Battalion Alarm Districts locations. The dataset contains locations and attributes of Battalion Alarm Districts, created as part of the DC Geographic Information System (DC GIS) for the D.C. Office of the Chief Technology Officer (OCTO) and participating D.C. government agencies.
Written documentation provided by FEMS identified Engine Local Alarm Districts locations. The dataset was created using the Street Center Line dataset as reference and snap base. Battalion Alarm Districts were aggregated from Engine Local Alarm Districts
All DC GIS data is stored and exported in Maryland State Plane coordinates NAD 83 meters.

Attribute_Accuracy:
Attribute_Accuracy_Report:
Data believed to be complete and accurate, subject to change.
Engine Local Alarm Districts were checked for proper connectivity between bordering districts. Engine Local Alarm Districts were also checked to ensure snapping to Street Center Lines. In cases of "imaginary lines," alarm districts could not always be snapped to Street Center Lines.
Not validated by source and/or responsible agency.

Completeness_Report:
Data believed to be complete and accurate, subject to change.
Dataset is complete to the provided written documentation. Any service area(s) not represented or area(s) of the city not covered by service areas, are a result of possilbe missing information not provided by originator.
