Description:

Abstract:

This is polygon data showing the mined extent of non-coal underground mines in Illinois. These data were extracted from the ISGS Coal database. Because there is no legal filing requirement for non-coal mines in Illinois, these data show only approximately 20% of the non-coal mines in the state. Mine index numbers can be related to tabular mine information maintained by the ISGS Coal Section. These data are not actively maintained. A much more comprehensive non-coal mine point data set is in preparation.

Purpose:

This data set was assembled as a subset of all underground mines in Illinois to identify areas that may be subject to mine subsidence. These data have a nominal scale of 1:24,000.

Data_Quality_Information:

Attribute_Accuracy:

Attribute_Accuracy_Report:

Attributes in this coverage are accurate with respect to the source data library. Contact the ISGS Coal Section for information regarding the accuracy of the source data library. Note: A polygon with CODE = 12 is also present with the database, but is probably mis-coded.

Logical_Consistency_Report:

Polygon and chain-node topology is present. The coverage was checked for complete chain-node topology (no dangling arcs, except where appropriate), polygon labels (one per polygon, except for universal polygon), boundary values appropriate for map projection and map units, and appropriate "fuzzy" tolerances. There are no known arc or polygon attribute values outside the appropriate value domains.

Completeness_Report:

This data set does not represent a complete collection of the location of mine shafts, slopes, and other openings. Lines delineate the approximate outer boundary of individual mines (if known) or general mined areas. It is estimated that less than 20% of the non-coal underground mines in Illinois are represented.

Positional_Accuracy:

Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:

Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:

Horizontal positional accuracy is verified by visual comparison of source and hard copy plots. The source materials used are commonly paper copies of original mine maps or USGS 7.5' quadrangles. ISGS staff have not verified the accuracy or validity of the original source material. Some original maps are not drawn on a cartographic base. Due to the physical and cartographic quality of the source materials used, horizontal positions may be in error by 500 feet or more. For applications requiring precise horizontal accuracy, the original source maps should be consulted.

Process_Step:

Process_Description:

This data set was created from digital data maintained by the Coal section of the Illinois State Geological Survey. The data is separated into county-by county databases archived on-line in /coal4/library. If a non-coal polygon coverage existed within a county database, it was copied to a separate workspace. There were a total of 15 counties with non-coal polygon coverages. The 15 individual coverages were combined into a single coverage with the ARC/INFO APPEND command.

Entity_and_Attribute_Information:

Overview_Description:

Entity_and_Attribute_Overview:

Attribute items are in typical ARC/INFO feature class format. Those requiring further explanation are:

 Polygon Attributes:
 INDEX  - the mine index number, which can be used to
          relate to other tabular data that may exist
          in the ISGS Coal Section mine database.

 INDEX2 - Additional mine index number, if applicable.
          A mine may have two index numbers because of
          overlapping mines or surface mining through
          shallow underground mines, or due to changing
          mine ownership and/or status over time.

 CODE   - code for source of digitized data
          from ISGS Coal Section
          Valid CODEs within this database include:
          0 - not a mine polygon
          (a donut polygon within a mine polygon)
          1 - Original mine map with 4 registration points
          2 - Original mine map, registered using landmarks
          4 - Map with topography or scale > 1:24,000
          Note: A polygon with CODE - 12 is also present,
                but is probably mis-coded.
