The facility site points feature class is utilized in the development and maintenance of the Chatham County, NC basemaps.Chatham GIS SOP: "MAPSERV-93"

This feature class contains line features representing two-foot changes in elevation throughout Chatham County, NC. It is sourced from Quality Level 2 lidar data provided by the North Carolina Department of Public Safety Floodplain Mapping Program. LASD datasets were created referencing the tiled lidar data. Subsets were built using classified ground and water returns. Raster Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) were built by binning the points and averaging elevation values within 15 m x 15 m cells. The resulting DEMs were mosaicked to a contiguous ground elevation raster covering the entire county. Areas without ground point coverage that are covered by water bodies were patched by using DEMs derived from binned water elevation values. Contour lines were derived from the contiguous, patched DEM at various contour intervals.

The NPMS is a geographic information system (GIS) dataset containing the location and selected attributes of the major gas transmission and hazardous liquid transmission pipelines, and liquefied natural gas (LNG) plants operating in United States and other offshore entities. Effective October 1, 2015 pipeline and LNG plant data is contributed annually by pipeline operators as required by the Pipeline Safety: Miscellaneous Changes to Pipeline Safety Regulations (http://www.regulations.gov/#!documentDetail;D=PHMSA-2010-0026-0054). This metadata is for the entire national dataset.Distribution of NPMS data is handled for PHMSA by the National Repository and is limited to pipeline operators and local, state, and federal government officials. Neither the United States Government nor any party involved in the creation and compilation of NPMS data and maps guarantees the accuracy or completeness of the products. NPMS data has a target accuracy of +/- 500 feet and resides in geographic coordinates. NPMS data must never be used as a substitute for contacting the appropriate local one-call center prior to digging.Chatham GIS SOP: "MAPSERV-76"
