Identification_Information: Citation: Citation_Information: Originator: Illinois State Museum Publication_Date: 1994 Title: Archaeological Resource Potential in Illinois Edition: 20060817 Geospatial_Data_Presentation_Form: map Series_Information: Series_Name: ISGS GIS Database Issue_Identification: GISDB_QTGEO.IL_Arch_Resource_Potential_Py Description: Abstract: This is a statewide polygon feature class of areas in Illinois believed to possess a high archaeologic potential. It was developed by the Illinois State Museum and is intended for coarse regional analysis. The nominal map scale is 1:500,000 with a positional National Map Accuracy Standard value of 832 feet. Note however that the nature of the boundaries themselves, approximate limits of archaeologic potential, make specific statements of positional accuracy unimportant. Background - The Illinois State Agency Historic Preservation Act (P.A. 86-707) mandates state government to preserve, restore, and maintain the historic resources of the state. Activities that can result in change of historic properties undertaken, supported or administered by a State agency are subject to review by the Illinois Historic Preservation Agency (IHPA). The IHPA also regulates private undertakings which require a permit from a State agency. Private undertakings that will affect a documented archaeological site or an area with a high potential for archaeological resources, must inventory and assess the scientific and historic potential of archaeological and historic properties within the project area. The Illinois State Museum (ISM) is responsible for preparing maps illustrating areas with a high probability for archaeological resources. Based on the statewide distribution of documented archaeological resources, a high probability area "means any occurrence of Cahokia Alluvium, Carmi Member of Equality Formation, Grayslake Peat, Parkland Sand, Peyton Colluvium the Batavia Member of the Henry Formation, or the Mackinaw Member, as mapped by Lineback et al. (1979) at a scale of 1:5000,000 within permanent stream floodplains and including: 1) 500 yards of the adjoining bluff line crest of the Fox, Illinois, Kankakee, Kaskaskia, Mississippi, Ohio, Rock, and Wabash Rivers and 300 yards of the adjoining bluff line crest of all other rivers or, 2) a 500 yard wide area along the shore of Lake Michigan abutting the high water mark." Purpose: To determine the probability of a high archaeological resource area. These data are appropriate for use in local and regional thematic analysis. The data are not appropriate as a geodetic, legal or engineering base. The data set was not and is not intended as a substitute for surveyed locations, such as can be determined by a registered Public Land Surveyor. Although useful in a GIS as a reference base layer for maps, the data set has no legal basis in the definition of boundaries, property lines, or flood zones. Supplemental_Information: This statewide edition of the data is designated 20060817. The previous edition, stored as county-by-county coverages on the ISGS GIS system, was designated edition 1.0.

Data_Quality_Information: Attribute_Accuracy: Attribute_Accuracy_Report: The attributing is correct for all polygons. Logical_Consistency_Report: Original coverage data are topologically structured polygons. Completeness_Report: Data set is complete in that the entire state is included. However, this map is a model of archaeological resource potential, not a map of a tangible resource with known boundaries. Clearly some areas with resource potential are not included, rather this map reflects the definition prescribed by law.

All ponds were then removed to produce a simple line coverage. 3) The boundaries of Cahokia Alluvium were used to simulate the bluff edge. 4) Those portions of Cahokia Alluvium associated with one of the 8 large rivers mentioned in the bill were extracted. 5) The Cahokia Alluvium was buffered by 500 meters near the big rivers and 300 meters elsewhere. 6) A buffer of 300 yards was produced around all permanent streams not associated with Cahokia Alluvium on the Lineback map. 7) A small amount of edge matching was done at county boundaries, although some discrepancies still exist. Process_Date: Unknown Process_Step: Process_Description: The 102 county-by-county coverages were compiled into a single statewide coverage. The coverage data were in the customary ISGS Lambert Conformal Conic projection. For the 102 county coverages with identical PAT items and definitions, this was accomplished with the Arc Workstation command APPEND, as follows: APPEND ARCHMOD POLY END The coverage was then cleaned, dissolved, and converted to a shapefile: CLEAN ARCHMOD ARCHMOD2 0.002 0.002 POLY DISSOLVE ARCHMOD2 ARCHMOD3 HIGHPROB POLY ARCSHAPE ARCHMOD3 POLY archmod_py.shp The data were then reprojected to lon/lat NAD83 using the Project function of ArcToolbox: Executing (Project_1): Project C:\archmod_py.shp C:\archmod_py_Project GEOGCS['GCS_North_American_1983',DATUM['D_North_American_1983',SPHEROID['GRS_1980',6378137.0,298.257222101]],PRIMEM['Greenwich',0.0],UNIT['Degree',0.0174532925199433]] NAD_1927_To_NAD_1983_NADCON Executed (Project_1) successfully.
