Abstract:
Golf Course locations. The dataset contains locations and attributes of Golf Courses, 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.
A database researched by the DC Office of the Chief Technology Officer (OCTO) identified Golf Course locations and DC GIS staff geo-processed the data.
All DC GIS data is stored and exported in Maryland State Plane coordinates NAD 83 meters.

Process_Description:
Data Collection:
Through the application's functionality and usability requirements, OCTO GIS staff compose a list of data layers needed for the application. From this, staff determine the appropriate source and location for each layer, and assess the effort needed to get it.
Some layers, already part of the DC Atlas, are incorporated into the data store. For DC agency data, agency liaisons ask DC personnel about data availability and acquisition. For third-party data, OCTO-GIS evaluates options and either finds alternatives, purchases, or licenses the data. In some cases, staff create data from existing sources and then add required attribution.

Data Preparation:
After the collection, the data team prepares the data for qa/qc and inclusion in the data store. This step involves: 1.) configuring the datasets into a common form; 2.) geocoding tabular data using a common address base; 3.) generating or converting paper documents into digital format; 4.) populating required fields; and 5.) resolving data duplication and conflicts.
For geocoding, staff use a derivative of the Office of Tax and Revenue (OTR) owner-point database and the District Department of Transportation's (DDOT) street inventory system (SIS) street centerline file as the address base. Through automated procedures on the owner-point derivative file, personnel clean and standardize the irregular premise address information into street number, name, type, and quadrant fields. Also, staff use the merged SIS file containing the five centerlines classifications (street, alley, drive, service road, and ramp).
First, staff match tabular data to the standardized owner-points. Then, the rest are matched to the street centerline file. After this, staff compose a list of the unmatched records needing further research. Since not all of the records geocode, staff note the final matching figures (number of hits, rejects, and the total).
For web links, team members check the validity of existing links and find matching web sites that directly represent the feature. Staff use several web search engines to find appropriate web links. DC government sites are primarily used, when available.
To eliminate data redundancy, staff identify possible conflicting layers and duplicate features. In some cases, staff pick the best source. In others, the attributes in the multiple layers are consolidated. Sometimes, staff map the conflicting layers and investigate feature clusters as areas of potential duplication.
Where applicable, team members move points to the center of the corresponding buildings. Staff then select the building footprints and assign the appropriate GIS_ID value that links the points with the appropriate building polygon(s).
In an effort to consolidate the numerous representative features in the planimetrics, staff digitized boundaries around those features for each unique element within the dataset. This process did not produce boundaries that were identical to the underlying features, but resulted in boundaries that follow closely with the features. At the design scales for this product, this difference is not visible on printed maps. Staff then attributed the dataset from source material.

Data QA/QC
After data preparation, the data team performs qa/qc. Various processes check the following parameters: 1.) spatial and attribute accuracy; 2.) data usability; 3.) data dictionary adherence; 4.) specialized metrics, such as connectivity and directionality; and 5.) data load success. These checks are, as follows:
Visual - staff perform a structured visual check of the data, using on-screen, plotting, and customized routines, and, at times, comparing it to the source documents.
Edge-matching - For grided datasets, staff review the spatial capture, connectivity, and attribution of data across tile boundaries, where applicable.
Automated - Staff compare the data to documented standards and source files through automated procedures and reports.
Specialized - Staff review more specific data parameters, such as directionality, connectivity , and topology.
Edit Verification - Staff ensure that previous errors are fixed to specifications. ? Field Verification - Occasionally, through field work, team members compare the GIS data with the real world.
Data Loading - Staff evaluate the success and evaluate the process of loading raw data into a structured database.
Since most of the data use addresses as the spatial reference, staff compare the data against base layers (buildings, roads, street centerlines, owner-points, parks, and orthophotography) and move features where needed.
In some cases, OCTO GIS personnel produce maps and reports for source agency review. Through an iterative process, staff modify and enhance the layer to agency specifications. For some datasets, the agency endorses the final product for data load and publication.

Final Data Preparation:
For final preparation, staff ensure all of the needed items are present (unneeded items are deleted), the metadata is complete and current, the shapefile is in the proper projection, and a spatial index exists. If not already done, a GIS_ID (unique id for features in the layer) is computed with automated tools.

Data Load:
After final preparation, OCTO GIS staff load the data into the application's test database, where SDE handles the spatial data and ORACLE manages the attribute information.
First, staff add primary key and name fields to the layer. Second, personnel register the layer into the appropriate tables and establish the unique feature-ids (the link between the spatial object and its attributes) specific to that layer. Then, staff populate feature, search, address, web url, contact, data source, and other tables, where applicable. For point layers, team members calculate each feature's geographic extent and populate the features table. Lastly, each layer is intersected with the base geography (2002 Advisory Neighborhood Commission areas, 2002 wards, zip codes, neighborhoods, and neighborhood clusters) to populate the "what's-within" tables for the web reports. Views are refreshed when needed.

Data Load QA/QC
OCTO GIS performs spatial checks comparing the test SDE database with source files to check for completeness, spatial integrity, and proper attribution. First, staff compare the test database contents with documented standards. Then, team members check the geography and attribution, as well as compare dataset parameters between both layers.
The data team performs attribute checks on the ORACLE database to ensure the existence and validity of views. Again, staff compare the database contents with documented standards. For critical views, personnel check the view structures and data against source files and documentation.
