Data_Quality_Information:
Logical_Consistency_Report:
The shapefile is converted to SDC (Smart Data Compression) format using either ESRI SDC Data Development Kit Professional 2 (DDKP2) or tools in ArcGIS.  The SDC data set is then loaded into ArcSDEr to verify and validate the geometry.  The data set is created directly from a topologically correct ArcInfor coverage.
Completeness_Report:
After processing, the data set is checked for drawing display and number of records and file sizes compared with source materials.

The following steps were performed by ESRI for Data & Maps 2002: Updated Saudi Arabia - Yemen border. Updated attributes for East Timor, Yugoslavia, Saudi Arabia, and Yemen.  Recalculated attributes based on area.  Created ArcGISr layer file (.lyr) and ArcView GIS legend file (.avl).  Copied projection file (.prj) and created spatial indices.

The following steps were performed by ESRI: Extracted the features from ESRI Data & Maps 1999 data set-admin98.shp.  Updated political boundaries for countries and first-level administrative units.  This included Nunavut in Canada and Macau in China as well as others. Extended political boundaries into the Caspian Sea and removed the shoreline.  Created ArcGISr layer file (.lyr).  Created ArcView GIS legend file (.avl).  Created projection file (.prj).  Created spatial indices.
