<dt>Abstract</dt>
<dd>This layer is a georeferenced raster image of the historic paper map entitled: Map
of the city of Boston and immediate neighborhood : from original surveys by H. McIntyre.
It was published by H. McIntyre in 1852. Scale [1:5,400]. Covers also portions of
Cambridge and Somerville, Massachusetts.The image inside the map neatline is georeferenced
to the surface of the earth and fit to the Massachusetts State Plane Coordinate System,
Mainland Zone (in Feet) (Fipszone 2001). All map collar and inset information is also
available as part of the raster image, including any inset maps, profiles, statistical
tables, directories, text, illustrations, index maps, legends, or other information
associated with the principal map. This map shows features such as roads, railroads,
drainage, selected public buildings, schools, churches, cemeteries, industry locations
(e.g. mills, factories, mines, etc.), selected private buildings with names of property
owners, town boundaries, and more. Includes also 56 views of buildings.This layer
is part of a selection of digitally scanned and georeferenced historic maps of Massachusetts
from the Harvard Map Collection. These maps typically portray both natural and manmade
features. The selection represents a range of regions, originators, ground condition
dates (1755-1922), scales, and purposes. The digitized selection includes maps of:
the state, Massachusetts counties, town surveys, coastal features, real property,
parks, cemeteries, railroads, roads, public works projects, etc.
</dd>
<dt>Purpose</dt>
<dd>Historic paper maps can provide an excellent view of the changes that have occurred
in the cultural and physical landscape. The wide range of information provided on
these maps make them useful in the study of historic geography, and urban and rural
land use change. As this map has been georeferenced, it can be used in a GIS as a
source or background layer in conjunction with other GIS data.

<dt>Attribute Accuracy Report</dt>
<dd>The georeferenced raster is a faithfully reproduced digital image of the original
source map. Some differences may be detected between the source graphic used and the
raster image due to the RGB values assigned that particular color. The intent is to
recreate those colors as near as possible.
</dd>
<dt>Completeness Report</dt>
<dd>Data completeness for raster digital image files reflect content of the source graphic.
Features may have been eliminated or generalized on the source graphic due to scale
and legibility constraints
</dd>
<dt>Horizontal Positional Accuracy Report</dt>
<dd>The horizontal positional accuracy of a raster image is approximately the same as
the accuracy of the published source map. The lack of a greater accuracy is largely
the result of the inaccuracies with the original measurements and possible distortions
in the original paper map document. For instance, this map contains grid-like seams
that are the result of being formerly folded as a booklet. There may also be errors
introduced during the digitizing and georeferencing process. In most cases, however,
errors in the raster image are small compared with sources of error in the original
map graphic. The RMS error for this map is 156.82622 feet. This value describes
how consistent the transformation is between the different control points (links).
The RMS error is only an assessment of the accuracy of the transformation.

<dt>Entity and Attribute Overview</dt>
<dd>The indexes reference a color palette of RGB values from 0 through 255, representing
the color value from the original paper sheet map. The colors on that sheet can represent
relief, drainage, vegetation, populated places, cultural features, coastal hydrography,
transportation features (roads, railroads, tracks and trails), spot elevations and
boundaries. The colors are sometimes explained in a legend that is incorporated into
the map inset or collar.
