20 Digital Georeferencing Historic Maps were Georeferenced to Modern Digitial 1:24,000 USGS Maps Features used to correlate Historic Maps to Modern Maps were: Corners of County Boundaries Crossings of County Boundaries by Railroads Road and Streams (Used only once) The Digital Georeferencing process was only partially successful. Need for better accuracy led to the Manual Transcription process. 20

24 Manual Transcription for 20 th Century Soils Maps Process utilized Georeferenced Soils Maps printed at 1:24,000 scale, semi-transparent USGS Quad Maps, and a light table. Basically a form of tracing, whereby the transcriber aligned the Quad Map over a small section of the Soils Map, identified common points, and traced the historic features onto the modern map. An effort was made to not force features (especially roads) on the Soils Maps to conform to those on the Quad Maps. However, it was often obvious that a modern road was merely a paved version of the historic road. 24

26 20 th Century Soil Map and Manually Transcribed USGS Map
27 19 th Century County and Statewide Maps The Digital Georeferencing process was much more unsuccessful for the 19 th Century County and Statewide maps. We developed a Manual Transcription process similar to that for the 20 th Century Soils Maps, but using them (and not the modern USGS maps) as a baseline for the locations of roads. The working assumption was that the Early 20 th Century road system is an artifact of the 19 th Century road system). 27
28 After a Quality Review of the transcribed maps, the maps were scanned and all features onscreen digitized and attributed into ArcGIS. A final Quality Review of the digitized features completed the process. Digitization and Feature Extraction 28

Front-loading of impacts analysis for NCDOT. Creation of digital archive for research. 33
