MCR2010 was produced for the Vancouver 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games Region. Data was obtained from the 1:250 000 National Topographic Data Base (NTDB) data available from the Government of Canada and from 1:250 000 United States Geological Survey (USGS) data. NTDB data was revised using satellite imagery and data from secondary sources. This map contains all of the information shown on a National Topographic System (NTS) 1:250 000 topographic map.
Purpose:
This product was produced to depict the Vancouver 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games Region.

Completeness Report:
MCR2010 was produced from 1:250 000 National Topographic Data Base (NTDB) data and from 1:250 000 United States Geological Survey (USGS) data. NTDB data was revised using satellite imagery and data from secondary sources.
Positional Accuracy:
Horizontal Positional Accuracy:
Horizontal Positional Accuracy Report:
The planimetric accuracy of MCR2010 is function of the planimetric accuracy of a 1:250 000 NTS map. Horizontal accuracy of topographic maps is defined in meters. It was determined according to the STANAG Standards, Edition 5 NATO. It resulted in a four grades:
A: 125 m. B: 250 m. C: 500 m. D: 1000 m.
The resulting horizontal accuracy is applicable to 90% of all points at publication scale.
Minimum horizontal positional accuracy of the data source in meters.
Vertical Positional Accuracy:
Vertical Positional Accuracy Report:
The altimetric accuracy of MCR2010 is a function of the altimetric accuracy of the vector data.
Vertical accuracy of topographic maps is also defined in meters. It was determined according to the STANAG Standards, Edition 5 NATO. It resulted in a five grade classification:
0: 25 m. 1: 50 m. 2: 100 m. 3: > 100 m. 4: Unknown
The resulting vertical accuracy is applicable to 90% of all points at publication scale.
Accuracy value of 200 means accuracy is greater than 100 m. Accuracy value of -1 means accuracy unknown.
Linear Map Accuracy Standard (LMAS) of the vector map in meters.
