Summary

MS Fire Station locations

Description

This dataset contains point features representing building locations of fire stations in Mississippi.The purpose of this collection is to represent the fire station locations on general purpose cartographic products. The data includes manned fire stations and buildings from which a fire response occurs, such as a volunteer fire department building to which fire fighters report for duty, but which is not continuously manned. The data includes both private and governmental entities. In some cases, where fire stations are known to exist but could not be located on a specific building, such as on a military base, airport or manufacturing location, a point was placed at the entrance or the general center of the facility or complex. Some fire locations are approximate, most prevalently in rural areas. Fire training facilities are not included unless these locations also have an active fire station. Locations solely for storing or maintaining fire equipment, or fire stations without a permanent location, were generally excluded. *** July 2023, MARIS staff extracted the Mississippi portion of this national database.. They also separated out volunteer fires atations to add an attribute Volunteer where value 1 = volunteer.

Measure description

This data contains points for fire station buildings. The data includes both private and governmental entities. Some fire locations are approximate, most prevalently in rural areas. Fire training facilities are not included unless these locations also have an active fire station. Locations solely for storing or maintaining fire equipment, or fire stations without a permanent location, were generally excluded.

Data quality report - Absolute external positional accuracy

Measure description

Horizontal accuracy is based on accuracy of imagery used to verify location, generally at NAIP accuracy or better. No formal accuracy tests were performed on the data.

Data quality report - Quantitative attribute accuracy

Measure description

Volunteer submissions are randomly sampled and reviewed for attribute and spatial accuracy. Points edited by volunteers which failed automatic checks, such as for required information or formatting, are reviewed by USGS staff. All points marked for deletion by volunteers are reviewed by USGS staff. USGS staff primarily conduct internet research and use aerial imagery to confirm volunteer submissions. A full data review of all features is not conducted. Past accuracy tests based on random samples of volunteer submissions found a 90-95% accuracy range for location of a point and name of a feature. Errors of omission were not tested.

WHEN THE PROCESS OCCURRED 2020-02-06 00:00:00

Description

Point data from the National Structures Dataset (NSD) is exposed to TNM Corps volunteers using an online map editor (https://edits.nationalmap.gov/tnmcorps/). Volunteers can use the editor to create points for missing data, update existing point attribution, move points using map and image backgrounds, or delete features which are no longer valid. Volunteers may use personal knowledge or conduct internet research to located and update attribution. Attributes of edited points are checked with automated filters to find common formatting and spelling errors. Points which fail automatic filter checks and all points marked for deletion by volunteers are reviewed by USGS staff. Edited data is ingested into the NSD through an internal process. This dataset is subject to constant change as points are reviewed and updated by volunteers.
