accuracy, and precision for the purposes for which they were originally intended. In this context, "data" refer to numerical and
textual data (such as in the "pipeline" application), digitial data (such as .las files), digital images (such as digital photographs),
scanned records (such as completion reports), and spatial data (such as shapefiles). Some data have been compiled from other sources
and the WVGES accepts no responsibility for any inaccuracies in those data. Therefore, we cannot and do not, either implicitly or
explicitly, guarantee the accuracy, precision, or completeness of the data.

efforts. Final use of these data is the sole responsibility of the user.
4. We encourage you to report any problems, inconsistencies, or errors noted in using these data to the Computing Services Program,
so that we can correct them and provide even better service.
